The Denver Broncos continue their winning streak by defeating the Green Bay Packers at home in Week 15 with a 34-26 score, officially securing their playoff spot and improving to 12-2 in the 2025 season. This marks their best win-loss record since the 2015-16 season (12-4). With two games remaining, Sean Payton, Bo Nix, and the team can have the playoffs at Empower Field at Mile High, as they are currently the number one seed in the AFC Conference.
Since he was drafted 12th overall out of Oregon in 2024, Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has proven that he is truly the franchise guy for Denver. Through two NFL career seasons, Nix has not missed the playoffs. Bo Nix has a 22-9 win-loss record so far throughout his NFL career, and there is an interesting stat regarding these numbers.
