The Green Bay Packers suffered a major loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, losing by a final score of 34-26. The Packers, who entered the Broncos game in first place in the NFC North, dropped to second place after losing since the Chicago Bears beat the Cleveland Browns.

Entering Week 15, Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love was among the NFL's elite at going against man coverage. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos were among the league's highest in man coverage rate.

The Green Bay Packers, led by quarterback Jordan Love, face the Denver Broncos, led by quarterback Bo Nix, on Sunday, Dec. 14, 2025 at Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, Colo.

Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos won their 11th straight game with a 34-26 home win over the Green Bay Packers. Nix threw for 302 yards, a career-high four touchdowns and wasn’t intercepted or sacked a single time as Denver clinched a playoff berth for the second consecutive season.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur's assistant had a colorful analogy to describe the team's loss to the Broncos.

Broncos safety P.J. Locke said after Sunday's game that he's hoping the Brandon Jones injury isn't as bad "as what it sounds like."

Last year, the Broncos went 10-7 in coach Sean Payton's second season, reaching the NFL playoffs for the first time since the team won Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 campaign. Payton will now attempt to get his squad back to the playoffs -- and he has aspirations to go much further than the Wild Card round this time.

The Green Bay Packers will finally have a big part of their defense back. Former first-round pick Lukas Van Ness is officially active to play against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, despite being listed as questionable with a foot injury that has affected his third NFL season.
