Bo Nix vs Daniel Jones: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Bo Nix finished the 2025 season at 18.6 PPG over 17 games with the Denver Broncos, while Daniel Jones clocked in at 18.0 across 13 appearances for the Indianapolis Colts. A 0.6-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Both lean on arm talent and offensive scheme as traditional pocket passers. Bo Nix threw for 3931 yards and 25 touchdowns, while Daniel Jones posted 3101 yards and 19 scores. Volume, red zone efficiency, and game script are the key week-to-week differentiators when neither carries rushing upside.
One thing to note: both players share a Week 14 bye. That means you need a backup plan at quarterback for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.
