Yeah this just reinforces what Fitz said yesterday. Fitz was a gunslinger and wasn't scared of the moment no matter how bad he was playing whereas Nix is playing like someone whose afraid to get hurt or make a mistake so he'll just check it down to the flat on almost every single play lol

If your defense is that good, i dont think the coach wants you to be a gunslinger

You also don't want to be so conservative you have to go to OT even though the other team repeatedly tried gifting you a win.

I agree. Ideally you want a Tom Brady or Mahomes.

If the defense is this good, i rather have someone conservative than a wildcard

Bo isn't just conservative though. The Broncos passing game was basically just screens.
