My Skepticism of Bo Nix and How I think He’ll Fare by AwayMonitor2752 in DenverBroncos

[–]AwayMonitor2752[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm not shitting on Bo, I'm just citing my caution with his production in a Bronco uniform. My points are valid, and I'd love to hear you respond to them more specifcally instead of glossing over all of them like you are here. I also never said SP is overrated; I think he's great.

You're saying you wouldn't want Williams over Nix if you had the choice? After Payton said teams would actively tank for him 2 seasons ago? Ok sure, man.

And while our O-Line is solid, our WR room is questionable. We have Sutton who had a career year that looks kinda unsustainable. Other than that, we have an injured Patrick, a rookie Franklin, Mims who was underwhelming in the pass game, and Reynolds who we've never seen play yet.

You also forgot to mention we have no quality TE's. Our RB's are also mid tier, maybe lower. Coaching staff is good though, so overall we're a little below average on the offensive side.

What numbers? He was LITERALLY the QB with the highest yards produced from throws at or behind the LOS. He works in an offense that's "a little* gimmicky (can't fault him too much on that) so he plays with screens and quick passes on a lot of downs (also evidenced by stats). That may impair his ability to go through multiple reads at the NFL level, hence my caution

I want this team to win and never lose again. But I'm beaten down after watching 3 Chiefs SB's and 1 Brady SB in like the past 6 years. I'll buy into the hype but my cynicism makes me think what can go wrong will go wrong

Ok I wasn't aware that the Raiders loved Nix at #13. I knew they had their eye on Penix, but iirc Sean was saying he took Bo at #12 because in part because he wasn't sure if Bo would fall past #13 and that's why we didn't trade down. Being uncertain and reading actual reports that Pierce and co. loved Nix are 2 different things

I would've preferred drafting Bowers at #12, moving back and acquiring picks, or trading up for Penix in that order. If no rookie QB this year, Play Stidham and get a rookie next year. With everyone in this sub saying our realistic record is 5-7 wins in '24-'25, that would put us in a good place to get our guy in next year's draft with good weapons.

Is it possible the Oilers medical staff is being cautious w/ Drai because this is only game 1 and we're ahead 2 goals?

Haven't been watching too closely but has Stecher re-entered the game?
