Over the course of NFL history, there have been a handful of quarterbacks who have started 50% or more of the team’s games in their first season and won enough to earn a postseason berth. The Denver Broncos' own Bo Nix just accomplished this feat.

After the Denver Broncos punched their ticket to the playoffs following a Week 18 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, quarterback Bo Nix was nominated for a pair of weekly awards following his historic performance.

With a 10-7 record, Denver got the final wild-card spot in the AFC playoff field. As the No. 7 seed, the Broncos will play the No. 2 Buffalo Bills in a first-round game at noon CST Sunday at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York. CBS will televise the game.
