ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix finds himself at, or near the bottom, of many of the league's major statistical metrics after four games, but coach Sean Payton said he remains confident in the 24-year-old rookie.

"You're still looking for the perfect picture, the perfect game," Payton said Wednesday. "I know this Shangri-La doesn't exist, but the execution, the details still have to get better with younger players."

The Broncos, after an 0-2 start, have ridden one of the league's best defenses back to a 2-2 record, but Nix has found it a tough go overall.
