Denver Broncos QB Bo Nix completed 14 of 23 pass attempts for 141 yards and rushed eight times for a season-high 49 yards in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Chargers. While he was held without a touchdown pass for the third time this season, Nix leaned on his defense and special teams to secure the victory, which earned Denver the AFC's No. 1 seed and a first-round bye in the playoffs. The surging sophomore finished the regular season completing 63 percent of his passes for 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions, along with 356 rushing yards and five scores. The Broncos will now await their divisional round opponent.
