Fourteen weeks into the 2025 NFL season, Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has a 55.8 “Total QBR” rating from ESPN, which ranks 16th out of 32 starting QBs. Nix’s traditional passer rating is 86.4.
Unlike a traditional passer rating, the Total QBR “incorporates all of a quarterback’s contributions to winning, including how he impacts the game on passes, rushes, turnovers and penalties,” according to ESPN.

The metric takes into account scenarios that a traditional passer rating overlooks and considers “a team’s level of success or failure on every play to provide the proper context and then allocates credit to the quarterback and his teammate to produce a clearer measure of quarterback efficiency.”
With that context in mind, here’s a look at how Nix stacks up against the NFL’s other starting quarterbacks going into Week 15 of the 2025 season.
