The Denver Broncos were built on their defense in 2025.

Things were so impressive for that side of the ball in the Mile High City that they almost wound up in San Francisco for Super Bowl LX. While the Broncos lost to the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship Game this season their future is very bright, and it is a future that Patrick Surtain and Nik Bonitto both believe in.

Surtain and Bonitto took some time while in San Francisco on Radio Row to chat with us at SB Nation. We discussed their great chemistry together, how they view the Super Bowl, and how they have a lot of hopes for the future. You can watch our conversation below.

The dynamic duo joined us on behalf of their partnership with Bounty. Given that it is the week of the Super Bowl you certainly cannot watch it without wings (Nik Bonitto ate some throughout this whole chat!) and when you have wings you certainly need Bounty.

Our thanks to Patrick, Nik, and Bounty for the time.
