Bo Nix has an NFL-high 6 game-winning drives this season, and a record 16 through 3 seasons
Nix had three of them as a rookie in 2024, an NFL-high seven of them last year, and is now leading the league again with six game-winning drives already this year.
- That has become the norm for Nix, who has a remarkable record of winning even when his team is losing in the fourth quarter.
- On back-to-back possessions in the fourth quarter, Nix led a 14-play, 80-yard touchdown drive and a six-play, 61-yard touchdown drive, and the Broncos beat the Panthers.
- Denver was losing at the start of the fourth quarter in Carolina on Sunday, but that doesn't much matter to Broncos quarterback Bo Nix.
He also has 16 game-winning drives so far in his three-year career, which is the record for any quarterback in his first three seasons.
(This is a regular-season statistic only, but Nix also had a game-winning drive in the playoffs last season.) A game-winning drive is defined as an offensive scoring drive in the fourth quarter or overtime that puts a team ahead for the final time.
- With big games coming for them, they've got a quarterback they know they can win with, even when they're losing in the fourth quarter.
