It's going to be not great. I get that fans aren't going to be seriously wishing they still had Russell Wilson, but a rookie year like that will have some serious questions about selecting Bo Nix where they did.

I get that... but, you're comparing a 10+ year veteran playing for his job essentially with a rookie. I'm not going to get wrapped up in stats.
If the Broncos play better offensively with Nix and they continue to build each week, while the wins may not be there... I'm not going to be disappointed if the team is 'better' and Nix plays with more confidence and owns that offense, but his stat lines don't beat 2023 Russ across the board.
