Bo Nix Criticized as Broncos Lean on Defense in Latest Win

Overview

• ESPN’s Bart Scott labeled Denver’s formula “unsustainable,” saying the team is “being held back by their quarterback” after another sluggish showing.
• In a 10-7 home win over the Raiders, the offense produced 220 yards with seven punts as fans booed; Bo Nix acknowledged the reaction and said it must be better.
• Recent form includes three sub-60% completion games in four outings, back-to-back sub-200-yard performances, and a season interception total reported at eight.
• Pundits including Colin Cowherd and Ryan Fitzpatrick have urged Sean Payton to consider alternatives, with any talk of benching or drafting a replacement characterized as speculation.
• Supporters point to Nix’s top-10 yardage, strong touchdown pace, and multiple comeback wins, while analysts cite low depth of target and restrained play-calling as limiting factors.
