In the first half, Nix fought the slick on the ball and repeatedly went for fresh towels on the sideline between drives. He threw 15 passes in the first half and completed seven but for minus-7 yards. In the second half the offense didn’t light the world on fire, but an 87-yard touchdown drive was enough to get the Broncos over the finish line.

The 12th overall pick from the 2024 NFL draft, Bo Nix delivered his first win in the NFL last weekend put forth abysmal first half against the Jets: Nix became the first quarterback since at least 2000 to have multiple completions in the first half of a game and throw for negative yards.

The rookie quarterback really struggled in Denver's 10-9 win over the New York Jets on Sunday. His numbers were flat-out brutal, as they were for the entire offense. The Broncos only gained 186 yards as a team and only converted 3-of-14 third downs. It was a rough showing.
