The Broncos look to bolster their postseason aspirations when they square off with the AFC West rival Raiders on Sunday afternoon. Rookie Bo Nix has been sensational over the past month, helping elevate this storied franchise back to prominence.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Denver is currently a 5.5-point favorite, with the game’s total set at 41.5 points. Below, I’ve detailed my favorite prop bet centered around Nix for this divisional showdown.
Best Bo Nix Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Bo Nix 2+ Passing TDs (+135)
Forget first-year signal callers—few quarterbacks in the league are playing at the level of Bo Nix right now. The Oregon product has logged just one turnover-worthy play since Week 4, according to PFF, while chipping in 16 total touchdowns during that span. He’s a maestro in the pocket, perfectly orchestrating this Sean Payton offense.
Nix delivers balls quickly and precisely, letting his playmakers work after the catch. The advanced stats have yet to match the film, likely due to some early-season blunders, but Nix has shown plenty of signs that this stretch is not a blip on the radar. This budding superstar is simply who he is now.
Las Vegas is 30th in EPA per pass play, with a secondary that can’t seem to stay in front of any pass-catching unit. In the earlier matchup, Nix had 206 yards and a pair of passing scores despite college teammate Troy Franklin dropping a walk-in touchdown. Nix is amid a scorching streak against a struggling unit—the plus value here is incredible. The 24-year-old should surpass this mark with ease and continue to build upon a stellar campaign.
