Is Bo Nix’s Season Struggling in Silence? The Shocking Truth Behind His Unexpected Slide
So here we are, cheering for the Denver Broncos as they crank up a three-game winning streak, feeling pretty confident with the New York Giants looming at home next. But beneath this glossy surface lies a curious conundrum: Bo Nix, the quarterback expected to soar in his sophomore year, is quietly stumbling in ways that don’t show up in the win column — or at least not convincingly. It’s strange, isn’t it? How a team can be on fire and yet its QB stats whisper disappointment like a secret no one wants to shout about. Nix’s numbers? They’re puzzling — yards per attempt dragging near the bottom, completion percentages underperforming, and off-target throws piling up. Yet the Broncos keep rolling, buoyed by a punishing running game and a defense that’s a fortress. So… is Bo Nix just having a rough patch, or are we glimpsing cracks in a façade that could complicate Denver’s ambitions down the stretch? Let’s dig into this curious case of under-the-radar QB woes amid team success.
The Denver Broncos have won three games in a row and are on a roll, with the New York Giants up next at home.
While the Broncos have been winning, there has been some concern about the performance of quarterback Bo Nix, who hasn’t taken the step forward many expected in his second season.
“Bo Nix has quietly been one of the worst QBs in the NFL this season,” Dataroma wrote on X.
Bo Nix has quietly been one of the worst QBs in the NFL this season:
+ 6.20 yards per attempt (26th/33 QBs)
+ 5.85 ANY/A (21st)
+ -0.3% completion % over expected (28th)
+ 18.4% off target throw rate (27th)

According to Fantasy Points Data, Nix is 26th in the NFL at 6.2 yards per attempt, is 28th with a minus-0.3 percent completion rate over expected, and is 27th with an 18.4 percent off-target throw rate.
The counting stats have been fine, as he has 10 total touchdowns and four interceptions while taking just six sacks, but if you look a bit deeper, he has left much to be desired.
Some may argue that stats can be cherry-picked and Nix is doing a solid job executing the offense the way it is designed to be run.
But this is something to keep an eye on as the season progresses to see if it’s just a small sample size, or if Nix does have some issues he needs to clean up.
Denver has been running the ball as well as any team in the NFL, and the defense ranks second in the league in points allowed, so if Nix has been underperforming, it hasn’t been enough to derail his team.
Hopefully, he will improve over the coming weeks as the Broncos are set to face some weaker defenses.
