After Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Chargers, the Denver Broncos secured the top overall seed in the AFC playoffs, which is exciting for any fanbase, as it guarantees home games as long as their team wins.
Although Denver will have the home-field advantage in the postseason, many people have expressed doubt about how far they believe the Broncos can go, mainly because of their lack of offensive production at times this season.

Usually, when the offense is a question mark, most eyes are on the quarterback, and even with Bo Nix having a solid year, there have been times when he has struggled to get the offense started, leading to few points.
Bo Nix responds to getting booed by fans in win over Chargers
When the Broncos struggled to produce lengthy drives against the Chargers, fans at Mile High Stadium grew tired and began booing Nix and the offense.
Where many athletes would take this as a disrespect, Nix had no problem whatsoever and even found it comical.
"It's funny, it's our job to give them a good quality experience. They show up to see us win. Obviously, we've won a lot of games this year, but it's good. They're not going to be complacent. They want more," Nix said.
This was not the first time the Broncos have been booed on their home field, and Nix had a similar response, so it speaks volumes about how the second-year QB carries himself as a true professional.
The Denver Broncos have a first-round bye and will host the highest remaining seed left after the conclusion of the wild-card round.
