    Lol at bo showed no progressions bruh this guy is just talkin he’s not a serious in depth analyzer…. One of his best traits is processing fast!!!! Goin through his progressions , knowing what the defense is doing and getting the ball to its weakness, he even changes plays at the line if he sees something. Your playing both sides of the fence so if he he’s great you can say yeah we’ll I said good things and if he’s bad yeah we’ll I said he couldn’t do this and that…… get off the fence and pick a side n stop being a coward. You think nix is not going to be great just say it. If you do think he will be great just say it but all this startling the fence I’ve been seeing on KZread is lame

    You show 8 missed throws down the field and disregard the 40 throws on a dime down the field lol man stop! Nix is accurate deep short medium everywhere I mean nobody hits every pass….. but damn near 80% completion percentage is nix record….. you can’t hit 100% lol I can just watch bonhughlight videos and your going to see strikes on a dime 40/50 yards down the field dropping them right in a basket….. Mahomes is prolly the best in the nfl and he short hops throws and has a huge cannon….. it happens. Nix game is more Peyton manning Drew Bree’s like where. They accurate you to death from 45 yards in…….. they don’t get you everytime but they get your ass most the time to put up all the numbers they put up breaking records and shit in the nfl

    Started off good. Your comment about for every good there was a bad by him is a joke. 45 tds, 3 int, 5 total sacks When you talked about him not being good at throwing downfield you only showed his 6 or 7 misses throughout the season. His downfield connect rate was excellent

    'The good parts are true but the bad parts are false' is the most fan response ever I could have put up another 30/40 clips of his slow/poor intermediate reads or throws he missed going downfield that was underthrown and bailed out by his receiver. Take the duck hat off in your profile and try be objective.

    Bo Nix is gonna wind up being the 2nd best QB of the class as a rookie after Caleb Williams. He has NFL traits and he's going into a perfect scheme for his strengths. I don't have that many questions about Bo Nix honestly, he's a prototypical west coast offense QB in an era where the descendants of the Bill Walsh tree west coast scheme are dominating football. When he followed the script at Oregon he was excellent, and when he improvised and deviated from the script, he was also excellent.

Traits based picks may be a dart throw for QB but if they improve on the actual QB'ing stuff, they add so much more to their game. Besides Rosen in a short scramble situation couldn't turn what Allen does to take off and truck smaller defenders from his 6'5 240 lb frame onto a first down.

Defenses were daring Mac to get deep shots through and if he couldn't, they just kept the Pats offense stalled.

    Even if we take into consideration the other QBs Payton tried to get the most out of post Drew Brees (Bridgewater, etc.) much of the success came to the caliber of talent around the QB. Nix is going to a great OL situation to a murky one. The Broncos receiver group has depth but also not amazing. At the same time I don't think Payton was going into the 2024 training camp with Sitdham/Wilson as his QBs.

    Was the scheme he ran at Auburn more akin to a pro scheme, and if so, how did he seem to handle it? From what I remember, he was very hot and cold. Also, his Auburn tape may be a better example of how he looks behind a suspect line. I seem to recall a few games getting ugly for him.

    He’s nowhere near the Quarterback he was at Auburn and Oregon’s scheme was more like what he’s going to run obviously but…literally completely changed, and transferred his good attributes from Auburn over. I dont think it’s fair to compare Auburn Bo Nix to Broncos Bo Nix. Broncos had an overhated O-line because Wilson pranced into so many sacks and pressure…and the line also improved this offseason.

    The only people who do not like Bo are those who are caught up on his Auburn time . Auburn runs a dumb offense. Mix is fine. he will be a hard QB to deal with in the NFL because he can run faster than most WRs. So his legs will help him get past the learning curve. He could very easy become the best QB of the 2024 class because Caleb Williams sure as hell is not!

    To be honest I thought the positive part was actually quite hopeful - that level of anticipation is special. He's got some big holes due to scheme, that might have stunted his growth - and make it difficult to work out who he is as a prospect - and he's also got some warts like a lot of college QBs, and those i'm less hopeful about. I think the question is - How much growth is left in a 24 year old quarterback who's been playing in an RPO offense for 5 straight years? With good coaching, maybe there's an abundance, but also, he might have just reached his ceiling.
