ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos move into their bye week in the best playoff position they have been in since 2016, when rookie quarterback Bo Nix was a sophomore in high school. They have done it by finding some beauty in the ugliness and comfort in the discomfort they tend to create for themselves.
"We're a confident bunch right now," Nix said. "We're playing aggressively. We're playing together. We're playing with a little bit of confidence and a chip on our shoulder -- just trying to continue to prove not only to other people but to ourselves that we have a really good football team.
