Rookie Bo Nix led the Denver Broncos to a resounding 38-0 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, marking a historic return to the playoffs after an eight-year absence. Nix set a franchise record by completing his first 18 passes and finished the game with four touchdown throws, bringing his season total to 29 and making him second on the all-time rookie list.
The loss for Kansas City, who rested key players including Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, ended their six-game winning streak. The Broncos will face the Buffalo Bills in the playoffs, relishing their return to postseason action since winning Super Bowl 50.
