From the episode
If the game's already out of reach because of how he plays in the first three quarters, I have pretty big worries that he's going to be able to dig them out of the hole that he creates... he can't play like a bad quarterback for 45 to 50 minutes and try to keep up with the guy who might be the MVP frontrunner.
STACKED’s take
Nix's early-game struggles and reliance on fourth-quarter comebacks won't work against elite offenses.
Nix has shown the ability to win close fourth-quarter games but struggles to keep pace with elite offenses over a full game. Against the Rams, his yards per attempt was 3.9 in the first three quarters versus 9.9 in the fourth quarter, and he completed less than 50% of his passes in that quarter (4 of 9), with the big yardage coming from back-to-back throws where the Rams blew coverage. The source expresses concern that Nix cannot play poorly for 45-50 minutes and expect to keep up with Purdy; he must play well from the first quarter on and cannot save it for the fourth quarter against an opponent of this caliber, or risk getting blown out like the Chiefs game in Week 1.
