Decked out in a classic, “Orange Crush”-themed uniform once worn by memorable quarterbacks and legends from Denver's storied past, Bo Nix’s standout Week 5 showcase offered thrilling examples of why he could perhaps join that lineage in the future. Flawlessly blending anticipation and touch on Denver’s dagger-like touchdown, the 2024 No. 12 pick trusted his trademark accuracy, locating his veteran receiver on a crossing route for a crowd-igniting nine-yard touchdown. Orchestrating a 34-18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders — the Broncos’ third-consecutive win — Nix was brilliant against his AFC West foes, going 19-of-27 for 206 yards, alongside two touchdowns and a 117.2 passer rating.
