The last NFL rookie to win a Week 1 start was Sam Darnold in 2018.
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix takes the snap at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana on Aug. 11, 2024. The Indianapolis Colts hosted the Denver Broncos for their first NFL Preseason game of the 2024 summer. One of these variables will determine whether Bo Nix wins his debut on Sunday. And the numbers don’t add up.
That will not happen to Nix. But achieving success remains a daunting task. Prepare accordingly, Broncos Country. Replace your game day gum with Tums. And don’t make every pass a referendum on the kid’s career. Yes, Nix is unique because of his college experience. And the last rookie to win in Seattle — Brock Purdy — featured a similar resume. The difference? He played for San Francisco, a team the Broncos will never be confused with.“There’s almost zero panic with him. That’s how he is,” starting center Luke Wattenberg said. “He’s calm, cool, collected. It’s a great energy to have in the huddle.”
Too many numbers scream that Nix’s first start deserves patience and perspective. Don’t get this confused. I am not baking in excuses for him. He has to show he can handle the moment, has to demonstrate that preseason was not a false positive. But that is something different entirely from defeating the Seahawks in this environment.
There is clearly a way to beat the Seahawks. They are nobody’s idea of a contender. But, sorry, history matters. Nix is going to win his share of games this season, but the numbers say his first victory won’t come Sunday in Seattle.83-year-old Colorado fisherman is back, defiant, seeking arrest and support in fight for freedom to wade in state’s rivers
