Even though Bo Nix threw three interceptions in Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton found something he liked a lot about the rookie quarterback’s performance.

Quarterback Bo Nix tossed a 1-yard score to cap the 12-play, 70-yard drive. Nix prevented a three-and-out and moved the chains with a 10-yard scramble on third-and-9. Then a few plays later, Nix hit receiver Devaughn Vele for a 15-yard gain to put Denver at the Los Angeles 33.

Nix threw a short touchdown pass to give the Broncos a 14-7 lead over the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday night.

Nix entered Week 16 second in the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds, trailing Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels. Each rookie signal-caller has led his team to nine wins and the precipice of the postseason.
