Courtland Sutton on Broncos’ struggles in red zone: “We need to find a way to score touchdowns”
When Bo Nix was asked about the characteristics of a good red zone offense in the NFL, the rookie quarterback didn’t shy away from the truth about his rough experience in critical situations.
“In the NFL, I haven’t figured out a whole lot because we haven’t scored in the red zone, yet,” Nix said after Wednesday’s practice.
Even with former quarterback Russell Wilson across the country in Pittsburgh, Denver’s red zone struggles have remained. In 2023, the Broncos scored a touchdown on 51.7% of their red zone trips, as head coach Sean Payton spent the offseason searching for answers on how to improve the team’s production inside the 20-yard line.
