Thursday’s game between the Denver Broncos and the Jets was close right up until the end. It had some huge plays. It had an exciting finish.
But to say the game — a 37-28 victory that gave the Broncos (1-3) their first win and has the Jets a quarter of the way to 0-16 — was good would be to ignore the quality of the competition, and all of the sloppy play that happened between the various highlights.
With that in mind, here is the game condensed into the parts of it that were truly worth watching. You can watch them all, including replays, in about 2 minutes 51 seconds, with some commentary mixed in from LeBron James and Patrick Mahomes.
Can’t get over this Sam Darnold run. #TakeFlight

As for the rest of the game, it wasn’t pretty. But, as Coach Vic Fangio of the Broncos said after his team held on, “Winning has cured more ills than penicillin.”
