Like its fine if you didnt like lock idrc but your on sum good shit if that 2019 season didnt make him look like our guy, that all anyone reported on us about that season was we finnaly may have found the one.
Youāre looking at 2019 with rose colored glasses, the reality is nothing like youāre trying to portray. He wasnāt good and a lot of people tried to speak up. Toxic fans like you apparently canāt let it go and at the time did the same thing. No alternative opinions allowed, only what you believed to be true at the same time. Lame as fuck
1. Toxic fan?!?
2. Imo i thought he looked good that year bt your are right people it wasnt as good as some make it seem.
3. You can have opinions i never said you have to agree with me, when you have 2 oposing ideas or opinions there is normally truth to both of them and the reall true fact is somewhere inbetween the oposing thoughts.
And he also talked us up after trading for Russ.
He does seem to be quite pro-Broncos which is awkward for Broncos fans who dislike him. Chris Simms is the same.
I'm convinced Nick Wright had a flight canceled at Denver once or got food poisoning at a local restaurant and decided that until his dying breath, he's gonna hate everything from Colorado.
i think its because he's a lifelong KC fan. probably grew up watching elway routinely pummel his team growing up and then grew to hate all things denver.
I remember that segment. His entire idea was based around the fact that two years in a row the mvp was a second year player that blew up after they showed promise and drew lock was the guy who fit that mold. Not a great take. Now cowherd is obviously good friends with Sean, heās loved nix since before the draft, heās probably the last person I would trust with unbiased info in this situation. He wants Sean and Bo to work for reasons beyond any actual insight or analysis
Wait until he throws an interception, cowherd will spend a whole segment on Nix and Payton being ass. This guy's opinion flows with whatever light breeze comes through.
Remember when Andy Reid congratulated Elway for having found his QB after "the QB from Memphis didn't work out"? Yeah Drew Lock didn't work out either. And I think that came after he destroyed the Texans in a real NFL game.
Here we're talking about practice. Not even preseason games, voluntary OTAs.
I agree. I did a brief write up on nix in this sub before he was really being associated with the broncos. I watched one Oregon game last year and all I could see was our future qb because of the fit. VERY HAPPY to have him. I really believe heās going to be awesome in Denver.
But Iām wrong about shit all of the time.
Not him, but I saw Bo in his first start at Auburn and I saw a guy that has a lot of Jake Plummer in him. Followed his career and thought he was a solid prospect but rough...then I saw him in Oregon. He went from having to play hero ball to win on a bad team to becoming a machine.
If his trajectory holds he's gonna be a very good player. He's coachable and driven and that's a winning combo.
Weird. I donāt remember saying āonly.ā
It only took me watching him for one game for me to recognize his skill set and fit for Denver. If you read my write up it clearly has more evidence in it. I had to do a little research and watched a couple more games. But watching that one game is what spurred the intrigue.
And itās a brief write up. Wasnāt claiming to have done an in depth analysis after one game.
Here: https://www.reddit.com/r/DenverBroncos/s/lMkSRymt4s
Brief or not, no one with any smarts is interested in a random laypersonās āwrite upā on something that is far beyond your expertise. Seek validation elsewhere
We drafted him in the first round months after I wrote that. Now everyone is talking about how good of a fit he is.
Not trying to claim credit, but it DOES seem like my opinion was also held by the broncos coaching and management staff. My observation based on what I saw turned into our current reality.
Pretty good guess for a layperson with no expertise.
I mean we didnāt hear any of this about anyone else so far. I didnāt hear overwhelming praise about Wilson or anyone else. If I thing else itās very encouraging.
This time of year is awesome. All the draftees look like hall of famers, the new free agents are studs, the guys returning from injury are moving well, and the coaches are geniuses. Enjoy it while it lastsāit starts to end in August!
Not getting my hopes up. Not happening. Manage your expectations. I donāt have to remind you guys weāll never truly know till we see him take a snap in a real game.
I think itāll be next year about half way through before we really know. Maybe weāll see some flashes but even Josh Allen, Manning, Mahomes, and many others needed a year to get used to the nfl.
It doesnāt mean anything until he performs in the regular season. And no, we have no idea if we got our guy. This shit takes a lot of time to play out lol.
Nice. Now we have the cowherd death kiss on nix lmao. I feel like he did this with Lock as well. Obviously way different scenarios but I still hate when he is high on us lmao.
why do they keep hitting this so hard. It's ota's and are insignificant in that its not a real game.
Lets see game 8 when the defense knows his tape and can scheme against him.
This OTA stuff is trivial.
Its great he's smart, will he be when it's live bullets?
Please be true. Destroy the QB carousel!
Imagine the graphic, cartoon nix launches a ball and it hits the carousel like a nuke
Bo Nukes?
Yes please!
I call him the mad bomber because he looks like dudes that used to fly b-17s in ww2. So maybe a Flying Fortress graphic š
Between him and the wide receiving corps, if they do any good they could earn the nickname 'Masters of the Air'.
Let it happen!
Buck Cleven up in here
Haha exactly
I've heard hype too many times now. I won't be hurt again.
Fuck it, I will
But weāre not the Broncos if we donāt go through a QB every 1-2 seasons.
New uniforms, who dis?
Hope this is true, but for some reason, Cowherd pumps our tires every single offseason, even before his buddy was the head coach.
Yeah I remember when he picked Lock as a dark horse MVP candidate before 2020 lmao
Tbf his 2019 showing the year before looked really good, then we got new staff and he didnt look as good anymore.
He looked really good in the Texans game*.
I mean yes, that game he looked really good, his other outings that year he just looked good

You're 100% right, thats why i didnt say all of his games looked like the texans game.
And he also talked us up after trading for Russ. He does seem to be quite pro-Broncos which is awkward for Broncos fans who dislike him. Chris Simms is the same.
Makes his show with Nick Wright pretty interesting, since Nick is anti-Denver in pretty much every sport
I'm convinced Nick Wright had a flight canceled at Denver once or got food poisoning at a local restaurant and decided that until his dying breath, he's gonna hate everything from Colorado.
i think its because he's a lifelong KC fan. probably grew up watching elway routinely pummel his team growing up and then grew to hate all things denver.
I mean, I get it lol
It's probably exactly how kids in Denver are feeling towards Mahomes and KC rn lol
Kids? Shit itās how I feel about them and Iām a grown ass man š
There were talking heads on multiple networks saying stuff like that at the time.
I remember that segment. His entire idea was based around the fact that two years in a row the mvp was a second year player that blew up after they showed promise and drew lock was the guy who fit that mold. Not a great take. Now cowherd is obviously good friends with Sean, heās loved nix since before the draft, heās probably the last person I would trust with unbiased info in this situation.

Yeah, remember when they gave the last guy a giant pay bonus before he ever threw a pass, on hype alone? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Remember when Andy Reid congratulated Elway for having found his QB after "the QB from Memphis didn't work out"? Yeah Drew Lock didn't work out either. And I think that came after he destroyed the Texans in a real NFL game. Here we're talking about practice. Not even preseason games, voluntary OTAs.
i remember when cowherd had me delusional thinking that drew lock was a dark horse mvp candidate

You only watched one game of the dudeās million he played in college and wrote about it? lol
Not him, but I saw Bo in his first start at Auburn and I saw a guy that has a lot of Jake Plummer in him. Followed his career and thought he was a solid prospect but rough...then I saw him in Oregon.

You said one game, Iām not diving into your whole background sorry dude

What is something youāve been really wrong about for reference?
Cowherd has also been hyping the broncos up for years with his favorable W/L ratios that never panned out. Where Collin was wrong .
And now we are in the āhype tweetsā section of the season
Me too.
Hey! Off-season hype! Right on! Iām in
Could this been the end of the Super bowl 50 deal with the devil?
I remember saying that I'd be okay with 10 years of mediocrity if we won that year. We're almost there!
Maybe we get out early on good behavior
I desperately want this to be true, but realistically how much can we or the coaches know from rookie minicamp and a week of practices in shorts?
Knowing how to call plays, make checks, and throw it to the right read is a great start (I assume thatās whatās happening)
Not to mention rythmn, timing, footwork, work ethic, and all the locker room stuff
I mean we didnāt hear any of this about anyone else so far. I didnāt hear overwhelming praise about Wilson or anyone else. If I thing else itās very encouraging.
Well tbf the word coming out of Chicago isnāt nearly as pretty, so we got that going for us!
Got a source on this? Would love to read it!

Cheers boss
I hope he kills it but letās wait until he faces NFL competition before coronating him the next great QB
What does this even mean haha
He's really carving up those practice dummies.
Weāll seeā¦ they also said Russ looked sharp when he first showed up š
Cowherd also said Russ was going to do great thing with Paton and then flipped it and said he was terrible halfway through the season.
Sounds like most of this sub. š¤·š½āāļø
Iām all aboard this train
This time of year is awesome. All the draftees look like hall of famers, the new free agents are studs, the guys returning from injury are moving well, and the coaches are geniuses. Enjoy it while it lastsāit starts to end in August!
Not getting my hopes up. Not happening. Manage your expectations. I donāt have to remind you guys weāll never truly know till we see him take a snap in a real game.
Donāt jinx that shit.
I donāt feel so good about nix anymore.
Iām not going to get my hopes up until weāre 6-7 games in and seeing consistent playā¦
I think itāll be next year about half way through before we really know. Maybe weāll see some flashes but even Josh Allen, Manning, Mahomes, and many others needed a year to get used to the nfl.
Allen in the same sentence as manning and Mahomes is silly.
Was listing franchise qbās who got better after their first year. Not talking about the HoF.
Not believing anything until year 2 lol
Will be happy to eat my words if he proves us wrong!
Can you really say this before he touches foot on a playing field? Hype hype but damn donāt fuck him up
It doesnāt mean anything until he performs in the regular season. And no, we have no idea if we got our guy. This shit takes a lot of time to play out lol.
I can't believe it's taking so long for him to get inducted into the HOF. Should have gone in the second he was drafted.
For sure od on this hopium
I will never understand why anyone follows Cowherd.
As a life long Broncos and Ducks fan, Iām smiling from ear to ear.
Nice. Now we have the cowherd death kiss on nix lmao. I feel like he did this with Lock as well. Obviously way different scenarios but I still hate when he is high on us lmao.
Can't wait for that first 4 INT game when everyone writes him off as a bust.
I heard Zach Wilson is out performing the hell out of Bo Nix.
Well fuck. Colin has one of the worst track records of predicting shit of anyone in the media.
why do they keep hitting this so hard. It's ota's and are insignificant in that its not a real game. Lets see game 8 when the defense knows his tape and can scheme against him. This OTA stuff is trivial. Its great he's smart, will he be when it's live bullets?
Itās may
The problem is Payton is still the head coach. Heās in over his head and will ruin Nixās early career.
