Overview
- Denver improved to 10-2 with a nine-game win streak and trails the 11-2 Patriots for the AFC’s No. 1 seed.
- Nix said the Broncos “didn’t work this hard to just win 10” and described himself as someone who can’t stand to lose.
- He noted he deleted his social media to avoid distractions and argued the worst response would be letting others tear down their record.
- Contextual metrics show a third-easiest schedule to date with a top-five defense and a middle-of-the-pack offense, and Nix’s individual passer metrics sit in the league’s lower middle tier.
- Denver visits the Raiders next, with DraftKings listing the Broncos as 7.5-point favorites, as Nix highlights scramble-drill chemistry with receivers like Pat Bryant and Courtland Sutton.
