During the 2016 offseason, the Broncos were in a quandary. Peyton Manning had retired and Brock Osweiler had spurned them for the Houston Texans. Thus began a string of quarterback disappointments that climaxed with the failed Russell Wilson experiment.

And then, there is Bo Nix. While he lost his first two games, he broke out in his third, engineering a major upset of the NFC South champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has continued to be at worst serviceable since then, now holding a winning record.
