Bo Nix throws the worst pass of the season and misses two wide open receivers on one play

The Denver Broncos and New Orleans Saints met Thursday night football in Week 7, giving Prime Video viewers the Bo Nix – Spencer Rattler QB battle they’ve been asking for all season. The matchup quickly lived up to the non-existent hype as both teams punted on their first possessions.

On Denver’s first drive, Bo Nix picked up two first downs with his legs before throwing three straight incomplete passes to set up that punt. One of those throws was really bad when Nix overthrew an open receiver and subdued another open receiver on the same play.

Tight end Lucas Krull and wide receiver Troy Franklin had both snuck behind the defense and gotten open. Nix, who couldn’t get to his feet despite having a clean pocket and two open teammates, put it right in the middle.

Amazingly, the Broncos would score on their next three drives to take a 13-0 lead midway through the second quarter.
