How fair was Ryan Fitzpatrick's harsh criticism of Broncos QB Bo Nix?
Ryan Fitzpatrick blasted Bo Nix after Thursday Night Football calling his performance "disrespectful to the position", and was just the first harsh criticism levied at Bo that night.
Ben DiNucci posted a sharp criticism of Bo Nix and the Broncos’ offense—then deleted it and explained why he felt he had crossed a line. Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay react to both statements on The Drive and discuss the tension between speaking freely as a media member and criticizing players who were once your teammates.
In the original post, DiNucci described Nix as looking “disinterested” and “checked out” while taking aim at Denver’s difficult-to-watch offense. In his follow-up, he acknowledged speaking about things he didn’t know to be true and said he felt he was doing a disservice to Nix and his former teammates.
Broncos Country, what do you make of DiNucci’s decision to delete the post—and where should former teammates draw the line when criticizing a struggling player? Share your take in the comments, like the video and subscribe for more Broncos coverage from The Drive with Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay.
