0:20Now Playing"Until this clock says zero, we're going to be fighting no matter what." 🗣 The Broncos tried to overcome a 20-point halftime deficit, but fell short.
The Broncos were getting whipped for three quarters by the AFC West rival Los Angeles Chargers before rookie quarterback Bo Nix got going in the fourth quarter. It was a bit too late as the Chargers hung on to defeat the Broncos, 23-16 on an otherwise perfect (68 degrees, sunny) mid-October, Sunday afternoon at Empower Field at Mile High.
The Chargers are now 3-2 while the Broncos had their three-game winning streak snapped and fell to 3-3.
It was 23-0 visitors through three quarters until Nix got hot, as he often does after slow starts, in the fourth.
“I don’t know but we’ll figure it out this week in practice,'' Broncos' outside linebacker Nik Bonitto, who got a sack in his fourth straight game, said about his team's slow-start trend. "I know the coach is going to make an emphasis, if not the players.
"But yeah that’s three straight games we came out very slow. We've got to get it fixed. We’ve got to use this altitude, we’ve got to use the fan base. We’re not doing that right now.”
So far this season, the Broncos begin home games as if they thought kickoff was at 3:05 p.m. In their first home game against Pittsburgh last month, the Broncos fell behind 13-0 and lost 13-6.
