Bo Nix rallies Broncos to upset of Eagles

Bo Nix and the visiting Denver Broncos wiped out a 14-point, fourth-quarter deficit and snapped the Philadelphia Eagles' 10-game winning streak with a 21-17 victory on Sunday.

After punting on seven of their first eight drives, the Broncos (3-2) scored touchdowns on back-to-back possessions to seize the lead.

J.K. Dobbins made it 17-10 with a 2-yard touchdown run with 13:11 remaining, and Nix put Denver ahead with an 11-yard TD pass to Evan Engram and a gutsy two-point conversion toss to Troy Franklin with 7:36 left.

The defending Super Bowl champion Eagles (4-1) also had a 12-game home winning streak snapped, dating back to Week 2 of last season.

Nix passed for 242 yards and improved his career record to 5-1 against NFC opponents. Courtland Sutton caught eight passes for 99 yards and Dobbins ran for 79 yards.

Jalen Hurts passed for a season-high 280 yards and threw touchdowns to Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert, but he was also sacked six times. DeVonta Smith had eight catches for a season-high 114 yards.

Denver made it 18 unanswered points in the fourth quarter on Wil Lutz's 36-yard field goal to make it 21-17 with 1:11 to play.

Hurts drove Philadelphia to the Denver 29 with nine seconds left but threw consecutive incompletions to end the game.

It was the first road win of the season for the Broncos.

The teams traded field goals in the first quarter. Lutz put Denver on the board first with a 55-yarder and Jake Elliott converted a 31-yarder to make it 3-3 with 29 seconds left in the quarter.

A 90-yard drive gave Philadelphia its first lead at 10-3 midway through the second quarter. After Hurts' 52-yard bomb to Smith converted a third-and-17, the Eagles got the ball at the 2 on Patrick Surtain II's pass-interference penalty. Hurts tossed the short TD to Goedert on the next play.

On the fourth snap of the second half, the Eagles extended their lead to 17-3 with Hurts' 47-yard touchdown pass to Barkley.
