Marvin Mims only played 12 snaps (17%) today and dreams of a Year 2 breakout are all but dead.
It's early, but Devaughn Vele is running ahead of Marvin Mims as Denver's No. 3 WR. Sutton and Reynolds are the 1-2 out of the gate.
Yikes. Bo Nix’s debut got off to a rough start and didn’t improve much as the afternoon progressed. He threw for just 67 yards in the first half, had one interception and four others that easily could have been, too. Nix didn’t wow with an array of big plays in training camp and the preseason, but he did do a good job of protecting the ball. Seattle’s defense had him out of sorts from the start.
Every time Denver’s run game started to get going, head coach Sean Payton seemed to get away from it. But fumbles by Audric Estime (recovered by Denver) and Jaleel McLaughlin (lost in the third quarter) certainly didn’t help any attempts at controlling the flow of the game
Initial thoughts from the Broncos’ loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1 at Lumen Field in Bo Nix’s professional debut:
Dropping the ball: Think Bo Nix misses Tim Patrick? While it would be silly to pin the Broncos’ passing game struggles on the decision to waive the oft-injured wide receiver, it sure didn’t look great early on when Lil’Jordan Humphrey and Courtland Sutton dropped catchable third-down passes in the first half. Nix and Patrick memorably showed some chemistry working with one another during the preseason. After one game, the rookie quarterback didn’t find that guy (Josh Reynolds?) until it was too late. The question is how long it will take for that to show up for an entire game
Broncos head coach Sean Payton has his quarterback in first-round pick Bo Nix, who will be Denver’s first rookie starting QB in Week 1 since some guy named John Elway. Will he come out firing or have rookie jitters in his first NFL start? Stick here for live updates and analysis as Denver takes on the Seahawks at Lumen Field in Seattle.
Broncos inactives (12:36 p.m.): TE Lucas Krull, WR Troy Franklin, DL Eyioma Uwazurike, RB Blake Watson, CB Kris Abrams-Draine and OL Frank Crum. Zach Wilson is listed as the emergency third quarterback. — McFadde
Stat line: 26-of-42 passing, 138 yards, 2 INTs and a rushing touchdown.
Highlight: There were few pretty moments. But in the closing seconds of the second quarter, Nix completed a 25-yard pass near the sideline to wide receiver Josh Reynolds. In what was Nix’s best throw of the afternoon, helping set up a 45-yard field goal by kicker Wil Lutz. Nix showcased his legs in the fourth quarter when he scrambled to the right, pump-faked and spun into the end zone for a 4-yard touchdown with 2:09 left in regulation
#Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett, listed as questionable with a thigh injury, is expected to play today, source said.

Seahawks versus Broncos at Lumen Field in Week 1 is almost becoming a September tradition at Lumen Field. For the second time in the last three seasons, Seattle opened the year with Denver at home. Life moves quickly in the NFL, and a lot has changed since the Broncos lost 17-16 on Monday Night Football in 2022.
Both teams have undergone plenty of change since then, but one of the constants has been Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith. Still, even Smith is not the same player he was then. Two years ago, Smith was seen as a liability at quarterback. A journeyman backup who won a preseason competition, but merely a bridge until Seattle could find someone else. Instead, Smith proved he was more than capable of being a starter, earning two Pro Bowl nods and taking home Comeback Player of the Year honors
RT: "Honestly this is the most beautiful place -- the most special place to play in the world, in my opinion." Safe to say Leonard Williams loves being on the @Seahawks ? @AKinkhabwala https://t.co/oHYdNEXNPD
Seattle WRs: DK Metcalf (52 snaps) led the way today, with Jaxon Smith-Njigba (48) just behind and Tyler Lockett (31) closer to Jake Bobo (19) than the top duo.

Julian Love had a team-high 12 tackles to go with an interception and a forced fumble for a Seahawks defense that kept the offense in the game until it started scoring.
