On today’s Orange & Blue Today, Andrew Mason and Cecil Lammey dive into ESPN’s Mike Clay projections for Broncos QB Bo Nix — now entering Year Three, not Year Two — and whether his production is set for a steady climb or a full‑on statistical eruption thanks to the arrival of superstar WR Jaylen Waddle.
Clay’s model shows Nix trending upward again, but the big question is how much Waddle changes the math. Does Waddle’s elite separation and YAC ability push Nix past 4,000 passing yards. Does the improved spacing and tempo in Davis Webb’s offense help Nix crack 30 passing touchdowns for the first time in his career.
Mase and Cecil break down what Clay projects, what Nix’s Year Three trajectory typically looks like for young quarterbacks, and how the structure of the offense could unlock either a controlled progression — or a true breakout season.
