The Green Bay Packers are set for a major showdown in Week 15 NFL action on the road against the Denver Broncos.
Entering this week’s game, the Packers hold a 9-3-1 record and fresh off of taking the NFC North division lead back from the Chicago Bears. As for the Broncos, they are leading the AFC West division race and hold a 10-3 record.
Jordan Love and company are riding a four-game winning streak entering this matchup. A fifth straight win would be a big step towards winning the division and clinching a playoff spot. Green Bay also still has a shot at having home field advantage in the playoffs.
Beating Denver on the road is never an easy task. The Broncos are fired up and ready for this week’s game.
That being said, one Denver defender has spoken out with a warning for the Packers.
Green Bay Packers: Broncos’ Defender Fires Strong Warning Before Week 15 Clash
As shared by Arnie Melendrez Stapleton of the Associated Press, Broncos’ pass rusher Nik Bonitto made it clear that Denver is looking to prove a point this week. He’s clearly taking the Broncos being named an underdog personally.
“I love it. It fuels me, honestly,” Bonitto said. “I like when people doubt us. They can stay on that side. We’ll go out and prove what we’ve got to prove.”
Facing off against a motivated Denver team is a big challenge for Green Bay. The offensive line will need to do its part to keep Love upright. The Packers also cannot afford to turn the football over.
On the flip side, the Green Bay defense will need to put pressure on Bo Nix. Micah Parsons and the rest of the defense will have chances to make plays to give the football back to Love throughout the game. They need to take advantage of those moments.
It’s going to be very interesting to see which team comes out on top this week. Both squads have shown the ability to be Super Bowl contenders. Now, fans can only patiently wait to find out which team sends a message with a statement win on Sunday afternoon.
