Bo Nix, one of Denver's most trumpeted rookie QBs since the Elway days, has written the first chapter of what he hopes is a similar book, right down to losing his first playoff game by the same score ( 31-7 to Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills ).

Denver put its first-round draft pick on the field immediately, and the payoff was the team’s first playoff appearance in nine years.

The Broncos must get Nix more help after his sterling rookie season, but the QB's own development will also be critical for Denver.

As the Denver Broncos begin to sift through all that was the 2024 season, they have already come away with at least one conclusion: They found their quarterback of the present and future in Bo Nix. The Broncos ended an eight-year playoff drought with a 10-7 finish but saw how much work is left to be done in a 31-7 loss to the Buffalo Bills this past Sunday in an AFC wild-card game.

After the Broncos' season came to an end after a blowout loss to the Bills in the Wild Card round, Sean Payton say Bo Nix is the real deal.

After wandering the quarterback desert for nearly a decade, the Denver Broncos have finally found their guy in Bo Nix.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton knows he and the organization have found a franchise quarterback in Bo Nix. Now, it's time to build around him.
