NFL: The Insiders on Bo Nix

Nix's checkdown tendencies limit Denver's offense; must attack downfield.

Bo Nix has struggled with aggression and decision-making, posting 190 yards passing or less in three of his last five games. Lance Zierlein notes Nix has reverted to 'check down Charlie' tendencies from college, being too comfortable with short throws instead of attacking downfield. With Sean Payton now calling plays in Denver, Nix must become more explosive and aggressive to succeed; the Broncos' offensive line and run game limitations mean Denver needs explosive passing plays to move the ball effectively.
