With a chance to clinch a playoff berth for the first time since the 2015-16 NFL season, the Denver Broncos (9-6) wilted in the second half and fell to the Los Angeles Chargers, 34-27. A wacky and <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/chargers-news-cameron-dicker-stuns-nfl-broncos-game-rare-feat-seen-1976">rare fair-catch free kick</a> dampened a hot start for Sean Payton’s group and portended a dismal ending to their Thursday Night Football matchup.</p><p>The Broncos’ inability to score a touchdown in the final 30 minutes of game time (held to two field goals), along with a concerning vulnerability against chunk plays, results in them sliding back to the final <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/afc-playoff-picture-after-steelers-texans-clinch-their-spots-in-week-15">AFC Wild Card slot</a>. They are leaving the door ajar for the Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins and their Week 17 opponent, the Cincinnati Bengals.</p><p>Bo Nix played respectably, completing 29-of-40 passes for 263 yards and two touchdowns, but he is <a href="https://x.com/christomasson/status/1869970351188521042" rel="noopener">dissatisfied with how the offense executed</a> coming out of halftime. The rookie quarterback is also not downplaying the importance of next Sunday’s game in Paycor Stadium.</p><p>“No excuses,” Nix told the media after the loss, per the Denver Gazette’s Chris Tomasson. “We got to move the ball better… We know this next one is the most important.”</p><h2><b>Broncos cannot lose their edge now</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Broncos-HC-Sean-Payton-observes-his-team.jpg"><figcaption>Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Denver’s wait for postseason football could end with a win versus the Bengals (6-8), but it has issues that must be addressed before the pivotal showdown. The Broncos found early success in LA by trusting their running backs, which helped them score touchdowns on their first three drives. Strangely, however, head coach Sean Payton veered away from the rushing game in the second half. Variety is an essential part of any offensive strategy, especially one that involves a rookie signal-caller.</p><p>Although Bo Nix has shown remarkable growth this year, he still has plenty to grasp. Masking limitations in high-stakes competition while also facilitating development is a demanding challenge that few franchises can effectively overcome. Still, it is a dilemma the Broncos and their fans are grateful to be faced with during the final stretch of the campaign.</p><p>Denver will reflect on its TNF missteps and devise a plan that can finally get the franchise back to the postseason.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

But while the final score indicated a laugher, the Broncos faced some serious adversity against the Colts. Rookie quarterback <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-makes-loser-admission-3-pick-game-win-colts">Bo Nix had a three-interception game</a>, throwing his third pick with Denver trailing 13-7 halfway through the third quarter. The Broncos appeared on the verge of choking away an important home game until the team’s 21-point fourth quarter transformed the contest into an easy win.</p><p>Although Nix is putting together a sensational rookie season that seems certain to establish him as the Broncos’ long term answer at QB, fans in Denver turned on the first-year passer during his rough start Sunday. That fact was not lost on wideout Courtland Sutton.</p><p>After the Week 15 victory, Sutton said he <a href="https://x.com/ZacStevensDNVR/status/1868472288938733743" rel="noopener">heard the home crowd</a> getting on Nix and called it “disheartening” and “BS,” per Broncos reporter Zac Stevens on X. The receiver made it clear the team is fully confident in the young quarterback.</p><p>Denver selected Nix with the 12th overall pick in the 2024 draft. He’s played exceptionally well as a rookie, trailing only the Washington Commanders’ first-year signal caller Jayden Daniels for Rookie of the Year honors. Still, there have been hiccups over the course of the season, as you would expect with any young player. But Sutton has consistently had his quarterback’s back.</p><h2><b>Bo Nix has delivered for the Broncos in his rookie season</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Bo-Nix_5c7a19.jpg"><figcaption>Isaiah J. Downing-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The seventh-year WR <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-courtland-sutton-major-bo-nix-endorsement-win-vs-buccaneers">gave Nix a major endorsement</a> after his first win as a starter in Week 3. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-courtland-sutton-gives-eye-opening-outlook-on-bo-nix">Sutton hyped up the QB</a> after a four-touchdown performance against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11. And he’s even likened their potential partnership to the highly successful <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-broncos-courtland-sutton-sees-aaron-rodgers-davante-adams-connection-developing-bo-nix">Aaron Rodgers-Davante Adams connection in Green Bay</a>.</p><p>So, clearly, Sutton is not going to remain silent when Nix is getting booed at home in a game the Broncos ended up winning 31-13. Nonetheless, the rookie quarterback did not play well for most of the afternoon. He finished with 20 completions for 130 yards, tossing three touchdowns along with three interceptions. Nix was also Denver’s leading rusher with 23 yards. Although, that says more about the Broncos’ lack of a running game than anything else.</p><p>Sutton is enjoying a Pro Bowl-caliber season. The wideout is on pace for a new career-high in receptions as well as his second-most receiving yards and touchdowns in a season. Nix, meanwhile, has completed 63.3 percent of his passes for 2,972 yards, 20 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 14 games. He’s also added 327 rushing yards and four additional scores on the ground.</p><p>Most importantly, the Broncos are winning. The team improved to 9-5 with Sunday’s win and, despite playing in a highly competitive division with the 13-1 Kansas City Chiefs and 8-6 LA Chargers, Denver currently holds the second Wild Card berth.</p><p>The Broncos have a <a href="https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/40617435/2024-nfl-playoff-picture-afc-nfc-seed-predictions-odds-super-bowl" rel="noopener">93 percent chance</a> of reaching the playoffs, according to ESPN. But the team, and its young quarterback, will be tested with games against the Chargers, Bengals and Chiefs to close out the season.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Originally from the small town of Elba, New York, Sonny received his degree from Florida Gulf Coast University and currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Denver Broncos</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>With a loaded late-afternoon slate of games, it would be easy for the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/colts-vs-broncos-predictions-pick-odds-spread-for-nfl-week-15-2024">matchup between the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos</a> to slip through the cracks, even though both teams are very much in the hunt for an AFC Wild Card berth. However, adding some intrigue to this game is the fact that it would be easy to frame this game as <i>The Peyton Manning Bowl. </i></p><p>Manning played 13 seasons with the Indianapolis Colts before spending the final four years of his career with the Denver Broncos. Though Manning’s peak certainly came in Indy, it’s easy to argue that the single best season of his Hall of Fame career came in the 2013 season. On their way to an AFC Title, Manning set the NFL records for both passing yards (5,477) and passing touchdowns (55), which propelled him to a nearly unanimous MVP award.</p><p>Since retirement, Manning has been inducted into both the Indianapolis Colts Ring of Honor and the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-peyton-manning-enshrined-into-denvers-ring-of-fame">Denver Broncos Ring of Fame</a>, but his allegiance clearly lies in the Mile High City. Manning lives in Denver and has voiced interest in becoming a minority owner of the Broncos, and on Sunday afternoon, <a href="https://x.com/Broncos/status/1868402728168534121" rel="noopener">prior to kickoff</a> between his two former teams, Manning was chatting up Denver’s rookie quarterback Bo Nix.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="und">1️⃣8️⃣ &amp; 🔟 <a href="https://t.co/zqrSF1fyV0">pic.twitter.com/zqrSF1fyV0</a></p><p>— Denver Broncos (@Broncos) <a href="https://twitter.com/Broncos/status/1868402728168534121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 15, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://instagram.com/embed.js"></script></p></figure><p>Fans in Denver are hoping that Nix will someday soon become the third quarterback in Broncos history to lead the team to a Super Bowl title, joining Manning, who got the job done in his final season thanks in large part to a devastating Broncos D, and John Elway, who won back-to-back Super Bowls in his final two NFL seasons.</p><p>For Bo Nix, that Super Bowl title may still be many years away, but everything we’ve seen from the former Oregon Ducks signal-caller looks promising. Through the first 13 games of his career, Nix has completed 64 percent of his passes for 2,842 yards and 17 touchdowns. He’s also added 304 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. Even more impressively, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-urgent-playoff-heading-bye-week">Nix has the Broncos on the verge of making the postseason</a> for the first time since Peyton Manning was still under center.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

One reason for Denver’s recent success has been the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-legendary-company-hot-streak">solid quarterback play of rookie Bo Nix</a>.</p><p>Nix spoke with reporters on Wednesday <a href="https://x.com/ZacStevensDNVR/status/1867005719968641423" rel="noopener">about his leadership style during his rookie season</a>.</p><p>“That’s a great question. My role right now is simply I have to go out there and perform on Sundays so that I can help these guys win games and keep these guys going,” Nix said per Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. “That’s my job as a quarterback right now. You have to honestly take the rookie out of it — it doesn’t matter. They’re looking at you like a starting quarterback in the league, so I just have to treat it that way.”</p><p>Nix is very aware that he has not accomplished anything yet in the NFL, so he won’t pretend that he has. It seems that has earned the respect of veterans on the team.</p><p>“Right now being young, I can’t talk a whole lot. There’s not much I can say,” Nix continued. “I haven’t really proven anything, so I just have to go out there and work. They want to see teh work, and they want to see how hard I’m preparing and what I’m doing off the field. Do I show up the same every day? I think when they see that, they have a form of respect and trust.”</p><p>Ultimately, Nix seems to understand that putting in the hard work is the best thing he can do as a rookie.</p><p>“It’s all about putting my head down and working hard,” Nix concluded. “I think they respect that.”</p><h2><b>Bo Nix sent urgent message to Broncos heading into bye week</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Broncos-QB-Bo-Nix_c92c0c.jpg"><figcaption>Mitch Stringer-Imagn Image</figcaption></figure><p>Nix understands that even if he isn’t trying to be <i>the</i> leader of the Broncos, he is still expected to be a franchise quarterback.</p><p>One thing that comes along with being QB1 is setting the expectations for the team. Nix did just that back in Week 13 right <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-urgent-playoff-heading-bye-week">before the Broncos headed into their bye week</a>.</p><p>“Finish strong,” Nix said after beating the Browns in Week 13. “We’re going for a playoff spot.”</p><p>The Broncos currently hold the No. 7 seed in the AFC heading into Week 15. They should be relatively safe as long as they can string together a win or two down the stretch. The Broncos are two games ahead of the Colts and Dolphins, who are the winningest teams still in the playoff hunt.</p><p>Denver has games against Indianapolis, Los Angeles, Cincinnati, and Kansas City coming up. Those games against the Colts and Chargers could be the two most important games on the schedule for clinching a playoff berth.</p><p>It will be interesting to see what happens over the final four weeks of the regular season.</p><p>Next up for the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl/denver-broncos/schedule/upcoming">Broncos is a Week 15 matchup against the Colts</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Denver closes out its regular-season schedule with a potentially crucial showdown against the defending two-time Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs in Mile High City.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He then covered FAU Sports for The Palm Beach Post.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">Cleveland Browns</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>As the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/browns-vs-broncos-predictions-pick-odds-spread-for-nfl-week-13-2024">Cleveland Browns take on the Denver Broncos</a> on Monday Night Football, defensive star Myles Garrett is preparing to hopefully take down rookie quarterback Bo Nix multiple times. While it will be a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/browns-news-jerry-jeudy-take-revenge-game-broncos">reunion for Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy</a>, Garrett is solely focused on continuing his status as possibly the best defensive player in the entire NFL.</p><p>However, people can’t forget how successful Nix has been in his first year with Denver, as he has thrown for 2,548 yards, 16 touchdowns, and six interceptions. Garrett would even say to the media Friday that Nix is <a href="https://browns.1rmg.com/transcripts/de-myles-garrett-11-29-24/" rel="noopener">“very talented,”</a> as there is no doubt that the star isn’t looking ahead of undervaluing the rookie signal-caller.</p><p>“He’s elusive, and he’s been moving the pocket for them,” Garrett said via the team’s transcripts. “They’re giving him time to throw, and he’s making those throws down the field. He’s feeling a lot more comfortable week-to-week, and I want to get that pocket moving, and he’s able to use his feet to his advantage, he’s very talented.”</p><h2><b>Browns’ Myles Garrett wants to write wrongs from last Broncos game</b></h2><p>There is some unfinished <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/browns-news-kevin-stefanski-case-for-myles-garrett-dpoty">business with Garrett</a> and the Broncos, as the last time the two teams faced off, the defensive playmaker had a shoulder injury and couldn’t play to his full capacity. He would even mention how Broncos offensive tackle Garrett Bolles played successfully against him and how Cleveland is ready to redeem themselves.</p><p>“Looking at the matchup, I wish I would have been able to use some different moves as far as how my shoulder felt,” Garrett said. “I think I used what I felt I could at that time. And he [Bolles] was a good pass blocker, taking nothing away from him. He did well however I was feeling and they made the most of it. That was a game where we couldn’t get off the field and when we went back on the field, we just couldn’t make those plays to get back the offense in good scoring position.”</p><p>“I remember multiple times where we were pretty close to either making a big play in the backfield or make a play on the ball, and we just weren’t there,” Garrett continued. “And so, myself feeling better and the guys with another year of being a part of this defense, feeling good, come off a big win, I feel like guys are ready to make up for that loss last year.”</p><h2><b>Browns’ Myles Garrett believes they can make a playoff push</b></h2><p>Despite a good amount of season left, Cleveland is in a huge hole at 3-8, but even with the slim chance, Garrett believes they can make a playoff push. He would say to the media that it all starts with <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-kevin-stefanski-breaks-down-sean-payton-success-denver">Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski and</a> his belief in the team around him.</p><p>“Because I believe it, and Kevin (Stefanski) believes it,” Garrett said. “That means us as a leadership council, we believe. And what we believe in, the team’s going to as well. And we’re not going to shy away from the fact that that’s where our goals and aspirations still are, no matter what the record is. Teams have come back from worse, and we’re looking to be one of those teams.”</p><p>Cleveland travels to Denver to keep their season alive Monday night.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He’s coached some defenses, coached against some of the best of the best coordinators of all time, and even holds the rare distinction of having won a Super Bowl in a game where his team <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/eagles-patriots-combined-set-17-new-super-bowl-records">didn’t force a single punt in regulation</a>, even if the quality of that fact is highly debatable.</p><p>When it comes to Sean Payton, Schwartz has seen him a number of times across multiple different coaching tenures, but until Week 13, he’s never seen his offense operate with Bo Nix as the triggerman, with the pride of Oregon going from zero to hero has he’s rapidly figured out the NFL game before fans’ eyes.</p><p>Asked during his weekly media session what he thinks of Nix in Payton’s scheme, he celebrated the two men for marrying their styles, as the latter has <a href="https://browns.1rmg.com/transcripts/defensive-coordinator-jim-schwartz-11-29-24/" rel="noopener">never quite had a quarterback like the former</a>.</p><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Bo-Nix-on-the-field-for-the-Browns.jpg"><figcaption>Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><h2><b>Jim Schwartz is also impressed by Broncos RB Marvin Mims</b></h2><p>Turning his attention to the rest of the Broncos’ offense, Schwartz complimented Nix’s weapons, too, especially Mims, who has been a revelation at running back.</p><p>“Yeah, I mean, other than Mims, they’re like a junior college basketball team. You know, like every guy is like 6’4″, 6’5″, 225. So, they have really good height, really good length, really good strength,” Schwartz told reporters. “And I think they’re dangerous on deep balls, particularly (Courtland) Sutton, just because they’re so strong and go over the top. But Mims is a unique challenge — punt return kind of stuff, they use him in a lot of different ways. Put him in the backfield at times, line him up all over the place and they use him in a specialty package, plus, just as a normal wide receiver, a little different skill set than the other guys. We’ll be on the lookout when he comes in the game.”</p><p>If the Browns are going to win in Week 13, they’ll need to keep an eye on number 19 at all times, which, considering his versatility, is a lot easier said than done.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Sutton has caught 57 passes for 744 yards with 5 touchdowns.</p><h2><b>Broncos may have a game-changing QB-WR duo on their hands</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Courtland-Sutton-has-been-a-key-playmaker-for-the-Broncos.jpg"><figcaption>Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Sutton is excited to work with Nix and he believes the pair have an excellent chance of building a partnership similar to the one that Aaron Rodgers had with Davante Adams when the two were at the top of their game with the Green Bay Packers.</p><p>Sutton was interviewed by Chris Thomasson of the <i>Denver Gazette</i> and <a href="https://denvergazette.com/sports/broncos-sutton-nix-humphrey-lombardi-browns/article_b85f965a-aeac-11ef-ad24-53dcac5c1816.html#google_vignette">he outlined</a> how the two will be able to grow together and become an impactful NFL duo.</p><p>“I think it’s only continuing to keep growing,’’ Sutton said. “I think that you look at some of these quarterbacks that have these dynamic duos with certain receivers, I think that they have some success early on but you look at Davante Adams and Aaron Rodgers when they were in Green Bay, they got to spend a lot of years together before everyone started seeing that connection of being almost unstoppable when they lined up.”</p><p>The Broncos are coming off a pair of impressive victories over the Atlanta Falcons and Las Vegas Raiders. They combined for 67 points in the two wins, and it’s clear that the offense is starting to jell. The Broncos have improved their scoring average to 20.0 points per game, and they are clearly climbing the ranks in their offensive production.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The report was based on an approximation, as the team conducted a walk-through session rather than a full practice. This cautious approach indicates the Broncos are prioritizing player health as they prepare for their critical Week 13 matchup.</p><p>Nix showed signs of a back-related issue during <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-legendary-company-hot-streak">Sunday’s victory over the Las Vegas Raiders</a> but managed to play the entire game without incident. Neither Nix nor Head Coach Sean Payton <a href="https://broncoswire.usatoday.com/2024/11/25/bo-nix-injury-update-is-the-broncos-quarterback-injured/" rel="noopener">mentioned</a> any injury concerns in comments made on Monday.</p><p>The Broncos also listed cornerback Riley Moss as a non-participant due to a knee injury, further highlighting potential defensive challenges ahead of their meeting with Cleveland. Defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers was limited with a shoulder injury, while Zach Allen fully participated despite being sidelined Week 12 due to an ankle issue. Allen’s return could provide a significant boost to a Denver defense that has been instrumental in the team’s recent surge.</p><h2><b>Broncos list Bo Nix with a back injury ahead of MNF matchup vs. Browns</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Bo-Nix-10-throws-the-ball-in-the-fourth-quarter-against-the-Las-Vegas-Raiders.jpg"><figcaption>© Kirby Lee-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Broncos, holding a 7-5 record, are on a two-game winning streak as they prepare for their <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-sean-payton-reveals-inspiring-message-raiders">Monday Night Football showdown against the Cleveland Browns</a> (3-8).

A win against Cleveland would further solidify their standing and keep the momentum rolling.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-rookie-of-the-year-odds-closing-in-jayden-daniels">Nix has been a driving force in Denver’s turnaround</a> this season. The rookie quarterback delivered a stellar performance in Week 11, recording season highs with an 84.4% completion rate, 307 passing yards, and four touchdown passes in a dominant 38-6 win over the Atlanta Falcons. His ability to perform under pressure has been amplified by a top-tier offensive line, ranked No. 2 in the NFL by Pro Football Focus, which has provided him with the protection necessary to execute Denver’s offensive strategy effectively.</p><p>As the Broncos aim to extend their winning streak to three games, Nix’s health remains a pivotal factor. The team’s upcoming practices and the final injury report will be closely watched for updates on his availability. With Denver eyeing a return to playoff contention, ensuring Nix is fit to lead the offense will be essential for maintaining their trajectory in a highly competitive AFC landscape.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Arguably the most fluctuant award of the year, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-rookie-of-the-year-odds-closing-in-jayden-daniels">2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year</a>, looks like it will come down to the wire with six weeks to go.</p><p>After taking a big lead out of the gate, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has slowed his torrid pace and has been quickly matched by his peers. The Commanders’ recent three-game losing streak has not helped Daniels’ case, though the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner still leads all rookies with 2,613 passing yards.</p><p>Daniels’ primary competitor has been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bo-nix-rookie-of-the-year-frontrunner-over-jayden-daniels">Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix</a>, who has taken the league by storm in the second half of the season. Nix got off to a slow start but has been on a tear in the month of November and has led the Broncos to a 7-5 record through 12 weeks. In Weeks 10 through 12, Nix has thrown eight total touchdowns without an interception and has made the Rookie of the Year race undeniably competitive.</p><h2><b>1. Bo Nix, Denver Broncos</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Bo-Nix_157241.jpg"><figcaption>Kirby Lee-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Recency bias plays a big part in the end-of-year awards, and Nix’s rise has come at the perfect time. He has outplayed Daniels in nearly every aspect since Week 8, making his impact fresh in voters’ minds. Currently on a two-game win streak, Nix has seemingly brought stability to the Broncos’ quarterback room that has not been present in nearly a decade.</p><p>Nix started his professional career with zero touchdowns and four interceptions over his first two weeks but has since developed into one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. Since Week 4, Nix has thrown 16 touchdowns to just two interceptions. Nix’s career-best 307 passing yards and four touchdowns in Week 11 put him ahead of Daniels in the eyes of most, where he has been ever since.</p><h2><b>2. Brock Bowers, Las Vegas Raiders</b></h2><p>His performances have flown under the radar all year, but Brock Bowers has a very real shot of taking home the hardware at the end of the year. Not much has gone well for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2024 but Bowers has been the lone bright spot. With 744 receiving yards through 12 weeks, Bowers not only leads the team in that category but his tally also tops all tight ends in the league.</p><p>Since <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jets-news-davante-adams-reunites-aaron-rodgers-trade-raiders">trading Davante Adams to the New York Jets</a>, Bowers has become the team’s top receiver out of the slot. Despite the increased attention and unstable quarterback play, the 21-year-old’s 74 receptions are <a href="https://www.nfl.com/stats/player-stats/category/receiving/2024/reg/all/receivingreceptions/desc" rel="noopener">second among all players</a> in the league, behind just CeeDee Lamb’s 77.</p><p>If all awards were handed out evenly, Bowers should be running away with this one. Unfortunately, Bowers is likely to fall victim to the politics of the league as a member of the 2-9 Raiders.</p><h2><b>3. Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders</b></h2><p>Daniels has not performed bad over the last month; he just hasn’t been as good as Nix. He is still not far behind the Broncos quarterback from first place. Some even believe that he is still the frontrunner. That is a difficult case to make entering Week 13, especially considering the recency bias that frequently play a part in these awards.</p><p>In the 11 games he has finished, Daniels has topped 200 passing yards in all but two weeks. His 556 rushing yards are just a touch behind Lamar Jackson for the most in the position. With the Daniels’ statistical production has not been his main issue. The Commanders’ recent three-game skid is the biggest thorn in his case as the best rookie in the class.</p><h2><b>4. Brian Thomas Jr., Jacksonville Jaguars</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Brian-Thomas-Jr.jpg"><figcaption>Melina Myers-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The main narrative in Jacksonville has been the uncertainty surrounding Trevor Lawrence at quarterback but Brian Thomas Jr. has been a revelation for Doug Pederson. In his first year, Thomas has already established himself as the team’s top target, over veteran teammates Christian Kirk and Gabe Davis.</p><p>Unfortunately for Thomas, quarterback play has severely limited his ceiling. A shoulder injury has kept Lawrence on the sidelines for the past two games, giving Mac Jones the key to Thomas’ recent results. Even then, Thomas ranks third among rookies in receiving yards, second in receiving touchdowns and fourth in receptions.</p><h2><b>5. Drake Maye, New England Patriots</b></h2><p>In terms of pure talent, Drake Maye has a solid argument as the best overall rookie quarterback in the 2024 draft class. He has had a tough time in New England, but even in spurts, Maye’s performances have already been impressive. Despite beginning the year as the backup to Jacoby Brissett, Maye is already third among rookie passers with an 85.4 passer rating, ahead of No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams.</p><p>The numbers do not tell the whole story for Maye, who, unlike Nix and Daniels, is without a bonafide No. 1 receiver on his team. Maye winning the 2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year award is a longshot, but there is no doubt that Elliot Wolf and Jerod Mayo should have their franchise quarterback in hand after the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/patriots-news-fans-react-to-mac-jones-era-ending-with-jaguars-trade">disastrous Mac Jones era</a>.</p><h2><b>Looking Ahead at the Rookie of the Year</b></h2><p>Like most of the awards, the Rookie of the Year race has not been decided. After injuries slowed him down, the New York Giants’ Malik Nabers can still force his way to the top if horrid quarterback play does not set him back.

Jayden Daniels sat at -1300 a few weeks ago but is now down to -180, while Nix isn’t far behind him<a href="https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/nfl?tab=season-awards" rel="noopener"> at +150 odds</a>, courtesy of FanDuel. At this point, the ROTY race appears to be down to these two signal-callers, although tight end Brock Bowers is still a longshot as well.</p><p>Nix is slowly proving that he could very well be the Broncos’ next franchise QB. He completed 25 of 42 passes for 273 yards and two touchdowns in Week 12. Last weekend, he also torched the Falcons, completing 28 of 33 passes for 307 yards and four TDs. Talk about efficiency. The former Oregon Duck has now thrown for 2,548 yards and 16 touchdowns against six interceptions, including a 64.9 completion percentage.</p><p>As for Daniels, he’s struggling as of late amid the Commanders’ three-game losing skid. The youngster has thrown three interceptions across the last two games. Remember, earlier in the season, Daniels was on fire and couldn’t be stopped. The Rookie of the Year award is certainly still up for grabs with numerous games left in the season.</p><p>Both the Broncos and Commanders aren’t playing the best teams in Week 13. Denver is up against the Cleveland Browns, while Washington faces the Tennessee Titans.</p><p>If Nix has another huge game and Daniels doesn’t play as well again, we could see the odds shorten even more after next weekend. But, one thing is for sure — a quarterback will almost certainly win ROTY for the fourth time in the last seven seasons.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Nix is the type of leader who head coach Sean Payton craves. His ferocity in this moment, which came against the only player who was able to sack him in Week 12, will make a fine meme. More importantly, however, it should galvanize a locker room that is hungry to keep proving cynics wrong.</p><p>Despite producing robust numbers at Oregon, many people doubted Nix’s ability. Winning Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year honors did not provide adequate evidence for those who believed that the Conference of Champions lacked any real defense. Nix was labeled a leftover after becoming the sixth quarterback to be selected in the first round of the draft. He did not toss his first NFL touchdown until Week 4, fueling the skepticism.</p><p>The 24-year-old is causing that uneasiness to evaporate with <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-legendary-company-hot-streak">a historic stretch</a>, though, and is a strong contender to win the Rookie of the Year award. He has just one interception in his last six games, playing a stellar brand of football without having any true star wide receivers at his disposal. His death stare pierces right through Tyree Wilson and into everyone who has underestimated him.</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-courtland-sutton-gives-eye-opening-outlook-on-bo-nix">Bo Nix is ready for all challengers</a> that stand in his way. He will look to unleash his fury on the Cleveland Browns (3-8) when they face the Broncos on Monday Night Football next week.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is pushing the ball downfield a little bit more, but he’s also taking care of it extremely well. That balance has him in the company of some NFL legends.</p><p>Nix is only the <a href="https://x.com/ZacStevensDNVR/status/1861112359156076965" rel="noopener">fifth quarterback over the last 10 seasons</a> to have a 10-game stretch during a season with 20 or more total touchdowns and two or fewer turnovers, joining Aaron Rodgers (2014, 2021), Drew Brees (2018, 2019), Tom Brady (2016) and Patrick Mahomes (2020), according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. Not a bad list to be on, huh?</p><p>Nix played well in what was a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raiders-news-gardner-minshew-suffers-season-ending-injury-broncos">slow game against the Las Vegas Raiders</a> on Sunday. The Broncos offense couldn’t punch the ball in when they got in Raiders territory in the first half on Sunday, but they ended up having a lot of success in the second half.

The Broncos got some help from the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, who lost to the Detroit Lions to fall to 5-7. The Cincinnati Bengals are sitting at 4-7, and the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tyreek-hill-fires-message-amid-winning-streak">red-hot Miami Dolphins are now the most dangerous chasing team</a> at 5-6 after three consecutive wins.</p><p>In a stunning turn of events that doesn’t reflect anybody’s preseason predictions, the Broncos look like the best team of that group from top to bottom. They have the best defense out of those four teams without question with a unit capable of shutting down even the best offenses in the league. That group gives this team a high floor and keeps them in almost every game no matter what is happening on the other side of the ball.</p><p>Offensively, the Broncos are finally finding an identity. Sean Payton and Bo Nix have built a strong chemistry together, and the Broncos are pulling all the right strings with that unit. The running game has come along and is at least giving them league-average level production, and Denver is <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-courtland-sutton-major-bo-nix-endorsement-win-vs-buccaneers">letting Courtland Sutton eat in the red zone</a>. Mix that in with Payton’s elite screen game and some out-of-structure creation from Nix using his legs, and you have a unit that can piece together drives against most teams.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They were scheduled to play the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday in Week 16 but the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl-news-broncos-chargers-set-thursday-night-football-first-week-16">Broncos were offered to change the spot to Thursday Night Football</a>. <br><br>The 6-5 Broncos have looked solid with their rookie quarterback. However, Week 10’s nail-biter against the Kansas City Chiefs proved to be everything. Even <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/broncos-news-bo-nix-reacts-awesome-patrick-mahomes-message">Patrick Mahomes gave Nix an awesome message</a> after pulling a near upset of the previously undefeated Chiefs. <br><br>Dianna Russini of The Athletic <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/" rel="noopener">made a bold prediction</a> about why the Broncos and Payton are rolling with the former Oregon football star.<br><br>“Payton knows his team inside and out and believes in Nix’s ability to handle the bright lights of prime time,” Russini said. “Some of it is also to push all his young players to get comfortable with the big moments. Instead of shying away from the spotlight, the Broncos are leaning into it. It’s all part of Payton’s vision.”</p><h2><b>How does Sean Payton know that Bo Nix and the Broncos will embrace primetime?</b></h2><p>Payton knows a lot about winning, as evidenced by his time with the New Orleans Saints. He went <a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/PaytSe0.htm" rel="noopener">152-89 during his 16 seasons</a> with the franchise. He won the 2009 Super Bowl with quarterback Drew Brees leading the way. Payton had nine seasons of winning 10+ games as well and had four straight seasons of doing so (2017-2020). His coaching model is still in effect in New Orleans, as evidenced by interim head coach Darren Rizzi.</p><p>Also, the Broncos are in Wild Card contention with their record. After Nix’s best performance of his career, he might continue to ride high off of that performance. Luckily, Denver has one primetime game before Week 16. They’ll face the Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football in Week 13. The Broncos will have two primetime games under their belt before that division game.</p><p>The first Thursday Night Football matchup was pure dominance by Denver. They won against the Saints 33-10 but Nix didn’t have to perform at an elite level. He threw 164 passing yards and had 75 rushing yards. His special teams and defense paved the way for a dominant victory. Fast forward to Week 12 and Nix is looking more comfortable.</p><p>Luckily for Nix and Payton, that Week 13 game against the Browns is at home. However, they’ll have to travel to Los Angeles and take on the Chargers. More primetime opportunities could prove useful for the seasons to come for Nix, Payton, and the rest of the Broncos squad.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
