Mike Klis: Who's more to blame for the Broncos offense, Bo Nix or Sean Payton?
The Bo Nix benching conversation once seemed out of the question. Now, with Denver’s offense continuing to struggle, what would it take for Sean Payton to consider Jarrett Stidham?
On The Drive with Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay, the discussion turns to a difficult balancing act: getting Nix back on track while protecting the Broncos’ Super Bowl ambitions. The case for sticking with him is clear in this conversation—a rejuvenated Nix is viewed as Denver’s best path to a championship. But what happens if the struggles continue?
The guys weigh whether a mental breather could help Nix reset or whether playing through the slump is the better approach. They also discuss how he might respond to a benching and why a quarterback change that seemed unthinkable a week earlier is now worth debating. This isn’t a report that a change is coming—it’s a conversation about the options Payton could face if the offense doesn’t improve.
Broncos Country, how should Sean Payton handle Bo Nix’s struggles—and what would have to happen before you’d consider giving Jarrett Stidham a shot? Share your take in the comments, like the video and subscribe for more Broncos coverage from The Drive with Zach Bye and Phillip Lindsay.
