Nix threw a clutch 32-yard pass to Troy Franklin with only 48 seconds left, which set up the game-winning field goal of Wil Lutz , as the Broncos escaped the Chiefs, 22-19 , at Empower Field at Mile High.
They notched their eighth straight victory and improved to 9-2, tying the New England Patriots for the best record in the AFC.
Fans were in shock over the Broncos' gutsy win, with the 25-year-old Nix getting a lot of love.
"Broncos cooked the Chiefs and the refs at the same time. That's not just a win—that's a statement," said @whynottin.
@1of1kane posted the perfect video for Nix, who went 24-of-37 for 295 yards.
"HOW CAN THEY DISRESPECT US NOW? 9-2, BABY, LET'S GO," wrote @TheShepherd_x.

"Broncos are for real this year!" added @OnlyRealLeft.
"Who said Bo Nix wasn't a franchise QB? The man knows how to win! I don't care about the stats, the name of the game is to win! And he's a winning quarterback," commented @I_CU_boy.
@BoNixStann decided a meme was only apt.
After the Chiefs took the lead, 19-16, Lutz tied the game with a 54-yard kick with 4:10 remaining. He finished with five goals.
That's when Nix took over , leading a 10-drive play, as he once again displayed his poise and leadership to complete the come-from-behind victory.
The Broncos' eight-game winning streak is their longest since 2012.
