Coaches spotlight footwork, play-calling adjustments before the Colts game.

Overview

  • Bo Nix turned the ball over three times in Denver’s 20-12 Week 1 win over the Titans, throwing two interceptions and losing a fumble.
  • Nix told reporters he may be less aggressive going forward, saying tougher throws might be avoided to cut mistakes, per DNVR’s Zac Stevens.
  • Sean Payton accepted responsibility for his Week 1 script, saying he has to be better after calling a pass-heavy game with 40 Nix attempts.
  • OC Joe Lombardi pointed to Nix’s footwork and timing on movement throws as a key factor in the inconsistencies, per Stevens’ report.
  • Denver visits Indianapolis in Week 2 against a Colts team that routed Miami 33-8 behind new starter Daniel Jones, sharpening the focus on cleaner execution.
