Denver Broncos Sean Payton is walking around Dove Valley like a cat that got the canary.
are marching deeper into the NFL offseason with even more excitement. Saturday's practice was open to the media, and hot on the heels of it, the buzz surrounding first-round quarterback Bo Nix is palpable.
Talk to anyone who watched Nix work on Saturday, his first observable practice as a pro. He can make all the throws, and that includes vertical shots as well as working the middle of the field and the seam. It's been a minute since opponents really had to worry about defending the seam vs. Denver. Payton was obviously encouraged by Nix's display and the veteran coach's response to being asked what makes a good practice for a quarterback immediately landed on accuracy.Russell Wilson could be accurate. He's definitely one of the most accurate deep-ball passers in the game. But underneath and over the middle, his "location" left much to be desired.Extension of the Coach
Brees was a point guard on the grass and an extension of Payton on the grid-iron. Wilson was more of the slasher who lived and died by improvisation. More often, he died and that drove a coach like Payton nuts. Payton didn't want to use the word "boring" when describing what it's like to watch Nix at work. Instead, he compared Nix to watching a golfer who is supremely at ease and confident with his stroke.
