The Drive | Hour 2 | 09.17.24

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil take a deep dive into Bo Nix’s struggles to start the season. What is the root cause? The guys look back at the way the Broncos treated training camp and Nix not getting the bulk of the reps. Was Nix too risk adverse in preseason to the point he didn’t get to practice throwing the ball down the field? Did Sean Payton add too pressure to Bo Nix by bragging to the national media? Today’s “Three Count” includes the viewership of the Rocky Mountain Showdown, the University of Tennessee adding a “talent fee” to their ticket prices to give it to players, and Air Force potentially on the move to join the American Athletic Conference. The former 1st overall pick from a year ago has been benched in Carolina, is it Bryce Young’s fault or the Panthers organization? Could Denver be the next “toxic” team for quarterbacks to avoid?
