Empower Field at Mile High Witnesses Denver Broncos Dominate Dallas Cowboys in Season Opener

In a display of early season form, the Denver Broncos secured a 17-7 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. The Broncos now stand at 1-0, while the Cowboys fall to 0-1.

The Denver crowd at Empower Field at Mile High witnessed their team's defense shine with two sacks and three tackles for loss, contributing to a total of 61 combined tackles. The defensive unit also made its presence felt in pass coverage, defending six passes and securing an interception without allowing any touchdowns through the air.

On offense, the Broncos' passing game was effective with a completion percentage of approximately 59 percent for a total of 285 yards. Quarterback play was key as they managed to avoid any interceptions while throwing for two touchdowns. The longest pass completion was an impressive 42 yards which contributed significantly to their average gain per play of over five yards.

Denver's special teams also had notable contributions; their punting unit averaged nearly 44 yards across four attempts with two punts landing inside the opposing team's twenty-yard line. Moreover, they made all attempted kicks including one field goal from beyond fifty yards and both extra point attempts following touchdowns.

The rushing attack struggled somewhat against the Cowboys' defense, averaging less than two yards per carry on twenty-two attempts without scoring any rushing touchdowns or achieving first downs on ground plays. However, this did not deter from their overall offensive production which totaled over three hundred yards.

Looking ahead to future matchups after this solid performance by both offense and defense, fans can anticipate another opportunity to support their team when the Denver Broncos travel to face off against Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park on August 20th at noon local time. This upcoming game will be broadcasted on NFL Network for fans unable to attend in person.
