The Giants squandered a 26-8 lead, losing 33-32 to the Broncos after a fourth-quarter collapse.

The New York Giants lost 33-32 to the Denver Broncos after squandering a 26-8 lead in the fourth quarter, marking a dramatic collapse following a dominant first three quarters. Broncos quarterback Bo Nix led a comeback with 279 passing yards, two touchdowns, and two rushing scores, aided by a critical defensive coverage decision that left the Giants’ edge rushers unable to pressure him. Star pass rusher Brian Burns, who had two sacks and led the NFL with nine, criticized the team’s play-calling, particularly the drop of eight defenders, and was seen emotional postgame, though he downplayed a foot injury. The loss ended a 1,602-game streak of teams winning when leading by 18 points in the final six minutes.
