QB Bo Nix, DEN (2 Viewers)

[VikingFrog]

Really happy with his progress. He has a great coaching staff - showed a lot of improvement. Next year they actually have cap room and draft picks to add some talent. He could be a dark horse top 10 very soon.

Soon?

He’s the 10th highest scoring QB in my league so far this season.

15th in mine but climbing!

Interesting. I think this league is 5 pt passing. I guess that makes enough of a difference over 4 pt passing.

Either way he’s been a strong start and is especially handy in Superflex where I have him and went super cheap in auction on my QB budget.

I think I have Stafford and Herbert in over him this specific weekend. But I love watching Nix play so my trigger finger may get itchy and plug him in over Herbert.

 

[Moonlight]

Stuck playing him on the road vs Chiefs. Though blown out by a poor Ravens defense he did little damage particularly during garbage time. So I’m not what you would call optimistic.

Every time I see this thread I hear the old horrible jingle for that haircut chain, BoRics.

Currently I have him in over Herbert. But I fully expect to change my mind several times in next 24h.

Its a dynasty league so this is goign to be a weekly pain for me next season as well.

Not sure Nix gets those bonus rushing yds against KCC.

Has no rushing yards in the first half. Having a great game passing though.

I’m watching at a bar on multi screens so haven’t seen every play, but the plays I’ve see he looks great.

Stuck with Nix last week, was like a 1.5pt difference in my league.
I think I am rolling with Herbert this week though.

If Bo Nix has 200+ passing yards and 2+ passing TD against the Falcons, he'll join Peyton Manning as the ONLY rookies in NFL history to have 200+ passing yards and 2+ passing TDs in four-straight home games.

He looks poised, sharp and confident. Broncos are much better than I expected this year

[General Malaise]

Is this another Zach Wilson or Mitch Trubisky situation? I read that he is constantly having to get cues from the sidelines. That isn't a good thing for complex NFL offenses. He also makes poor decisions from the pocket and has panic throws.

Okay, first of all, Wilson wasn't highly regarded until his final year at BYU which was an outlier for him in that Covid season. All told he had 28 starts. Trubisky had all of 13 starts under his belt.

Nix started 60 games in college. That's the record. That's in stark contrast to Wilson and ESPECIALLY Trubisky. This point is in arguable, so it stands.

Next, poor decisions and panic throws? HE COMPLETED 77.2% OF HIS PASSES!!!!!!!1111111 What are you even talking about? He had 40 TDs and 3 INTs this year. How on earth do you get poor decisions and panic throws from that?

Just reading scouting report, don’t shoot the messenger. As for the Wilson and Trubisky comment, it was aimed at their current fantasy value, not a comparison of players.

Did this report detail his numbers because if it didn't, seems to be a pretty weird thing to leave out. You don't complete 77% of your throws by panicking.

Neither Wilson nor Trubisky have any fantasy value. Maybe let Nix play an NFL game before reaching that same conclusion?

Sounds like Nix truther. Knock yourself out and draft him in as many leagues as you can.

Thanks! I did.

I love that you post so much on this board. Easiest FBG to short.

Broncos hyping Bo Nix for offensive rookie of the year and why not?

 

[Kiddnets]

He looks excellent - keeper/dynasty gold!

I bet a lot of women in the Denver area are

He's married.

But you're right, that slime ball prob does cheat.

Because he was the sixth QB drafted in the first round. Many sports analysts gave him a 2nd or 3rd round grade. People said he was a noodle arm who only dinks and dunks., He was supposed to "suck" but he's possibly the best QB in a strong class.

People just don't want to admit they were wrong.

 

[Mr.Blonde]

I swear, pro football scouting can be medieval.

The two factors that corollate most strongly with success in the NFL are games played in college and completion percentage.

Simple translation; you saw a lot of action and you knew what to do with the football.

Nix is the NCAA leader in games played at QB and when he was in college completed 66% of his passes.

 

[Kiddnets]

Dont forget a huge factor is coaching development - Payton is a great offensive HC. Makes a huge difference

Truer words have never been spoken. Although I would prefer that he post less, would be that much less nonsense to sift through. You would laugh if you saw his FF resume. Safe to say there is no correlation between volume of posts and FF success.

Am I missing something? Why the hate?

I know you hate the Ducks, but Nix is a grade-A nice guy. Very religious. My son is an event coordinator at UO and at the beginning of last year, he helped Bo and Izzy Nix set up a free donut give-away on the first day of classes. My son is NOT a football fan, so he didn't geek out over helping Nix and his wife, but said he could not have been any nicer to work with.

But, I get it, you hate all Ducks. That's fine. Just know this one is a solid guy.

James Palmer
Going 28/33, over 300 yards tonight and 4 TD passes. You have to start putting Bo Nix in the rookie of the year conversation. He has a 14-2 TD to INT ratio since Week 4. One of the best in the NFL. He has 4 games this season completing over 70% of his passes with 2 TDs and 0 INTs. That ties him with Dak Prescott for the most such games in a rookie season ever and we're in Week 11.

Sean Payton is a master at designing clearout routes and concepts to give his quarterback defined open reads. But those concepts take time, and that's where Bo Nix's pocket movement, escapability, and boot game come in. It's a great match.

Everyone is due for a dud sooner or later.

Oh, he's had some real stinkers already, most recently against Baltimore. His Week 4 game against the Jets before they quit was all kinds of fugly. But he's starting to really complete a high number of passes, which is what he was doing at Oregon, even though he unfairly earned a reputation as a 'check-down Charlie'. I hope he continues this trajectory because it's fun (for me) watching him succeed. But yeah, as a rookie QB, I suppose clunkers are coming. The Chargers' D gave him fits....he has them again. KC tough.

I think the Raiders are the closest thing right now to a bye.....that and Dallas.

 

[General Malaise]

Nix has four games this season with 2+ TDs, 0 Ints and a passer rating of at least 115. He joins Justin Herbert, CJ Stroud, Dak and Russ Wilson as the only rookies since 2000 to do this four times. Nobody has done it 5 times and Nix has 6 more games to go.

Giddyup!

 

[bumpman]

Against the Ravens he did Moss that defender on his receiving TD and had a rushing TD called back.

 

[bumpman]

The combo of Nix and Payton looks perfect. Nix looks comfortable operating Payton’s scheme and Payton looks comfortable opening up his complete bag of tricks for Nix to exploit.

The Denver Broncos' offense is humming, led by rookie quarterback Bo Nix

Hayden Winks
Bo Nix was 7-of-8 on throws with 10+ air yards vs. the Falcons. Some backside throws. Hole shots. Throws on the run.

He was memed to death as a screen merchant, but Nix led the consensus top-6 QBs in on-target rate on passes 10+ air yards and near the sideline (60%) per SIS.

Just finished Bo Nix tape.

He’s putting on a QB clinic that every young QB should watch.

Decision making, timing, accuracy, footwork, calculated improv, and great throw type selection.

He looks like a young Aaron Rodgers / Drew Brees blend, but is more athletic.

Damn.

Hopefully that 93-yd absolute dime between two defenders to Mims will finally put to bed the myth that Nix can't throw the deep ball
