After struggling early in the season, Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix has made huge strides in recent weeks and he has received several accolades along the way.
During his weekly media availability after Wednesday’s practice, Nix was asked about how he’s been able to take such a big leap in recent weeks.
“To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently.
“I think as we’ve gone on, Coach [Sean Payton] and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down, and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.”
Payton has tailored the offense to Nix’s strengths, and the coach and quarterback have become more familiar with each other with each game. Now entering his 12th week playing in the NFL, Nix will look to take another step forward when the Broncos face the Las Vegas Raiders on the road in Week 12.
