All 32 NFL quarterbacks (including Bo Nix) ranked by Total QBR in Week 3 - Broncos Wire

Going into Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season, Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix has a 40.7 "Total QBR" rating from ESPN, which ranks 26th out of 32 starting QBs. His traditional passer rating is 83.9, which ranks 27th.

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 3.

Last week, Nix ranked 31st with an 8.3 Total QBR rating. Nix and the Broncos are considered slight home underdogs going into their Sunday Night Football showdown with the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3.
