In a dominating performance, the Denver Broncos topped the Carolina Panthers 49-10 in Week 9 of the 2026 season. With this victory, the Broncos solidified their playoff aspirations while the Panthers struggled to find their footing in a disappointing outing. RJ Harvey was the standout on offense for Denver, racking up an astounding 269 rushing yards, showcasing his explosive speed and elusiveness. Despite the lopsided score, Bryce Young managed to throw for 123 yards and a touchdown for the Panthers, but it wasn’t nearly enough to keep pace with the Broncos' relentless attack. Jonathon Brooks led Carolina's receiving corps with 58 yards, but the team couldn't establish a consistent offensive rhythm. Defensively, the Broncos were stifling, with Harold Landry III leading the charge with three total tackles and two sacks, proving to be a constant threat in the backfield. Antonio Johnson made his mark with two interceptions, further disrupting the Panthers' offense and turning the tide in favor of Denver. The game's turning point came early in the second quarter when Johnson's second interception set up a quick touchdown, pushing the lead to an insurmountable 21-0.
