Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos almost blew a 19-point comeback Sunday afternoon.
Somehow, they walked away with a 33-32 win over the New York Giants.

After trailing for much of the game, and failing to back up the smack talk they threw rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart's way leading up to the game, the Broncos came alive and scored 22 unanswered points to jump ahead late at Mile High Stadium. Quarterback Bo Nix rushed for an 18-yard touchdown with 1:51 remaining to put the Broncos up 30-26.
But then Denver fell apart on New York's final possession. The Broncos were first hit with a brutal roughing the passer penalty by John Franklin-Myers on a fourth down, which kept the drive alive. Then a few plays later, Dart took a deep shot to Beaux Collins — who picked up a pass interference call.
That sent Payton off. He sprinted off the sideline to argue the call and was immediately hit with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

Dart then finished off that drive with a short touchdown run with just 31 seconds left. Kicker Jude McAtamney missed his second extra point of the day, however, leaving the Giants up by just two points.
That miss left the door open for the Broncos, who crossed midfield almost immediately with a deep pass to Marvin Mims and then got into the red zone with a 23-yard pass to Courtland Sutton.
After spiking the ball, it was just a chip shot for Wil Lutz to give the Broncos the wild one-point win.
In the end, the Broncos scored all 33 points in the final quarter. Each of their scoring drives took less than a minute of game time. Their 33 points is the most points in the fourth quarter by any team that was shut out in the previous three in NFL history. Nix became the first player in league history to record multiple touchdown passes and multiple touchdown runs in the same quarter, per Elias Sports Bureau, via ESPN.
Dart, who has given the Giants a jolt of life since taking over the starting job for Russell Wilson, went 15-of-33 passing for 283 yards with three touchdowns in the loss. He threw a bad interception late, which set up a 2-yard touchdown pass from Nix to R.J. Harvey to cut the score to 26-23 with 3:51 left.
Cam Skattebo had 60 yards on 16 carries for the Giants, and Wan'Dale Robinson had 95 yards on six catches.
The Giants will be back in action again next weekend when they travel to the Philadelphia Eagles, where Dart will have another huge test in front of him against the reigning Super Bowl champs, a team New York humbled in Week 6. While it looked like he was just fine for more than three quarters Sunday, Dart will have to put together a complete game if they're going to knock the Eagles off twice in a three-week span.
Nix finished 27 of 50 for 279 yards with two touchdowns in the win for the Broncos, who have now won four straight and sit at 5-2 on the season.
J.K. Dobbins had 81 rushing yards on 14 carries for Denver, and Sutton had 87 yards on six catches.
The Broncos will host the Dallas Cowboys next weekend looking for their fifth straight win.
