Is BO NIX BACK, or are the Cardinals just that bad?
After weeks of concern about Denver’s offense, Bo Nix gave Broncos fans something to feel good about: a 62-yard run, an anticipation throw to Marvin Mims and a road win. On The Drive, Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay react to Nix’s postgame comments and explore what those moments reveal about his confidence and command of the offense.
The guys discuss the run described in the clip as the longest by a quarterback in Broncos history, then dive into Nix’s detailed explanation of the throw to Mims. From recognizing the defensive disguise to anticipating how the corner and safety would react, Nix walks through the coverage clues that helped him find an opening down the sideline—even though he said they hadn’t made that throw in practice all week.
For Zach and Phil, hearing Nix explain those decisions offers an encouraging sign that he understood what he was seeing. But the quarterback also acknowledged penalties and an uneven late-game offense, leaving room for improvement alongside the relief of a big win.
