Bo Nix, Broncos and Sean Payton
Digest more
It's time to acknowledge the Broncos are more than just lucky, and that their quarterback is a big reason for their NFL-best record.
Bo Nix’s late-season surge reflects a growing balance between his natural playmaking ability and Sean Payton’s structured offense, a partnership that is reshaping the Broncos’ outlook as they push toward the postseason.
Nix went 23-of-34 passing for 302 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions, leading the Broncos to a 34-26 win that clinched a spot in the NFL playoffs. Nix also made plays with his legs, ending the day with no sacks taken and 12 yards gained on the ground (before losing two yards on kneeldowns).
The Packers had a cleverly disguised coverage called on second-and-15. Another area in which Nix had struggled was reacting to disguised coverages. According to Pro Football Focus, before this week, Nix had the third-lowest passer rating (61.4) and second-most interceptions (5) in the league against disguised coverages.
When they all trickle back under the Nix family roof in Alabama for board-game marathons, the goal is simple. Beat Bo. Because Bo Nix is trying to beat them.
In his latest film review, Jenkins began his look in the second quarter. "The first quarter was so uneventful that we don't have a single clip from it," said Jenkins, head in hands. "With that being said, the end of the game definitely was not uneventful."
