"You don't have to be Superman, matter of fact, you can just be Clark Kent." —@IamSTANBACK on whether Bo Nix needs to Via @gmfb on X

What happened: Nix entered the league as the 12th overall pick out of Oregon in 2024. Denver gave Webb first-time play-calling duties before a 24-14 loss at San Francisco on Oct. 5.

Why it matters: Denver's margin comes from efficiency that protects the defense and run game. Limiting giveaways matters more for January positioning than highlight throws.

By the numbers: Nix in 2025 over 17 games: 388-of-612, 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, 11 interceptions.

What to watch: Denver's next game tests whether Webb continues calling plays and Nix sustains efficient production.
