The Denver Broncos (6-2) are set to go on the road to face the Houston Texans (3-4) in Week 9 of the 2025 NFL season at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, on Sunday, Nov. 2. A third Fairbairn field goal gives Houston a 9-7 lead over the Broncos.

The Denver Broncos this week went into hostile territory and came away with a victory. Let’s start by giving some credit. That Houston Texans defense is legitimate and deserves a ton of respect. My focus is normally on our team, but I couldn’t help but be impressed with how good they played all four quarters.

Breaking down the Broncos’ stock report from Sunday’s 18-15 win over the Texans, as safety Talanoa Hufanga’s stock continues to rise after a nine-tackle performance.

Finally. Let’s spend today talking about a man who is quietly one of the best offensive tackles in the league this season. Mike McGlinchey’s tenure with the Denver Broncos has not been completely positive.

The Denver Broncos went on the road to take on the Houston Texans and walked out with their sixth straight win. It was a tough, low-scoring, defensive battle, but the Broncos made just enough plays to win 18-15.

Houston’s C.J. Stroud sustained a concussion after hitting his head hard on the ground at the end of a run in the second quarter of Sunday’s 18-15 loss to Denver.

The Ringer's Bill Simmons questioned if DeMeco Ryans is a good coach after the Texans opted to be aggressive with Davis Mills at quarterback instead of playing for overtime.

The Texans' offensive game plan certainly took a hit the second that star quarterback C.J. Stroud was ruled out with a concussion, effectively elevating backup Davis Mills to take those snaps at the very end of the game, where he couldn't quite get the momentum– both on the final drive, and in the fourth quarter as a whole.
