We have a lot in front of us, so I definitely don’t want to stop there." Though this game was overall a showing of rookie mistakes from both quarterbacks, as the Broncos slowly dismantled an incohesive and injury plagued Saints team to crank out a very secure 33-10 win.Against the Saints, Nix started off clunky for the Broncos’ first drive on offense.
