Nix must excel vs. 49ers' zone coverage; running game critical.

Bo Nix needs to stand out and perform at a high level against the 49ers' defense, which is pretty staunch. Nix has struggled facing zone coverage, and it will be interesting to see how Denver plans to attack the 49ers' defensive scheme. If Fred Warner shuts down Denver's running game, it will put even more pressure on Nix to try and win the game through the air.
