The Broncos defeated the Rams on Sunday Night Football in Week 3, with Los Angeles falling to 1-2 on the season. Both teams dealt with receiver absences heading into the matchup.
Marvin Mims Jr. was inactive for Denver after being listed as a game-time decision, while the Rams were without a key receiver as well, per Pro Football Talk. The Broncos also sat running back RJ Harvey, though they activated Jordan Jackson for the contest.
The Rams appeared poised for a dominant performance early, taking a 7-0 lead on a Matthew Stafford touchdown pass and extending that advantage to 16-0 by halftime after scoring on their last four possessions of the first half. However, Denver rallied to secure the victory in what Yahoo Sports described as a thriller, with Los Angeles unable to hold its multiple leads.
