​The Denver Broncos and Los Angeles Rams have had surprisingly similar starts to the 2026 NFL season.In Week 1, each team suffered disappointing losses during which their team’s superpowers were nullified. The Rams’ offense was nowhere to be found in the team’s 27-7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Melbourne while the Broncos’ defense was shredded by Kenneth Walker and the Kansas City Chiefs in a 31-10 loss on “Monday Night Football.”The Broncos and Rams each rebounded in Week 2. Denver’s defense limited a strong Jacksonville Jaguars offense to 13 points while Los Angeles’ offense dropped 28 points on the New York Giants despite being without the services of wide receiver Puka Nacua.That will create an intriguing, strength-on-strength matchup between the Rams offense and Broncos defense entering Week 3. The two sides will meet in an all-important “Sunday Night Football” clash where the loser will fall below .500 three games into the 2026 NFL season.Here’s everything to know about the Week 3 “Sunday Night Football” game, from start time to betting odds:Watch the NFL on FuboWhat time does Broncos vs. Rams NFL game start?The Broncos and Rams game will kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET on Sunday, Sept. 27.The intraconference class between the Broncos and Rams will be the last of a 14-game NFL Sunday slate.
