Broncos QB Bo Nix was sharp in the first half of Thursday night's game vs. the Chargers, completing 15 of 21 passes for 155 yards and two TDs. He found FB Michael Burton for a one-yard score on a well-designed play-action rollout in the first quarter. Then he hit WR Devaughn Vele from six yards out on a well-placed pass to the back corner of the end zone. Nix had a tougher time in the second half, though, totaling just 108 scoreless yards. The Chargers ratcheted up the pressure on Nix over the final 30 minutes and eliminated Denver's downfield passing game. Nix finished the game with just 3.3 air yards per pass attempt -- the second-lowest by any player in a game all season, per NFL Next Gen Stats.
Despite the up-then-down performance, Nix's final numbers in this one were solid: 263 passing yards and two TDs, plus 25 rushing yards.
His efficiency hasn't been great lately (6.4 yards per attempt over his last four), but Nix has managed to throw multiple TDs in three of those four and five of his last six.
He's done enough to be in play as a low-level QB1 for an excellent Week 17 matchup against the Bengals' 30th-ranked QB defense.
