In a commanding performance, the Denver Broncos topped the Los Angeles Rams 45-13 in Week 3 of the 2026 season. The Broncos aimed to solidify their dominance early in the season, and they delivered a strong showing that left no doubt about their capabilities on both sides of the ball.
Bo Nix led the charge for Denver, throwing for four touchdowns, while RJ Harvey made an impact on the ground with 114 rushing yards. The Rams' Matthew Stafford managed 190 passing yards but struggled to find the end zone, ultimately overshadowed by Denver's offensive explosiveness. Puka Nacua was the standout receiver for Los Angeles with 70 yards, but it wasn't enough to keep pace with the Broncos' offensive onslaught.
Defensively, the Broncos were relentless, with Alex Singleton snagging two interceptions that shifted the momentum firmly in their favor. Talanoa Hufanga contributed significantly with five total tackles, helping to stifle the Rams' attempts to build any rhythm. The turning point came in the second quarter when Nix connected with his receivers for consecutive touchdowns, effectively putting the game out of reach and showcasing Denver's offensive firepower.
