Bo Nix just did something no Denver Broncos quarterback has ever done — and somehow, many still refuse to give him credit.
In just his second year as a starter, Bo Nix has led the Denver Broncos to the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Fourteen wins. Home-field advantage. And now, history.
With Denver’s 19–3 win over the Chargers in Week 18, Nix tied a major NFL record: 24 wins in his first two seasons as a starter, matching the mark set by Russell Wilson back in 2012–2013.
But here’s the part that’s flying under the radar — and it shouldn’t.
Nix became the first quarterback in Broncos history to start every game of a 14-win season. Not John Elway. Not Peyton Manning. No one.
The legendary 1998 Super Bowl team also won 14 games, but John Elway didn’t start them all. Bo Nix did.
In a league where durability is rare — and over 20 teams started multiple quarterbacks this season alone — Nix hasn’t missed a single start in two years.
Yet critics still hesitate.
They call the system the reason.
They downplay the wins.
They move the goalposts.
The truth is uncomfortable for some: Bo Nix is already rewriting Broncos history.
Now comes the real test — the playoffs.
And if history is any indicator, doubting him has been a losing bet.
