Mile High Report on Bo Nix
From the article
I think because I'm seeing the field better and I know where my outlets are and I'm getting to them faster... I love running the football. I feel great. I'm healthy. I feel as good as I've felt in a long time.
STACKED’s take
Nix's rushing decline stems from better field vision and faster outlet access, not injury.
QB Bo Nix explains his reduced rushing volume this season despite being healthy and feeling 'as good as I've felt in a long time,' with GPS data confirming his physical condition. He attributes the decline in carries to improved field vision and faster decision-making after three years in the system, allowing him to reach his outlets (particularly RJ Harvey) more quickly. Nix states he is not running more because 'I'm seeing the field better and I know where my outlets are and I'm getting to them faster.' He emphasizes that running 20 times per game is not 'the most beneficial for us' right now, and he defers to coaches Sean Payton, Davis Webb, and Logan Kilgore on his decision-making pace, noting he hasn't received feedback about playing too quickly.
