Payton defends Nix against analyst criticism

Broncos coach Sean Payton took to social media to defend quarterback Bo Nix against a claim from former NFL player and current Fox analyst Geoff Schwartz. After Schwartz inaccurately suggested that Nix "doesn't push the ball down the field all that often," Payton responded with "Always easy to tell who works at it and who doesn't."

When asked about his Twitter response, Payton called the criticism "crazy" and said, "I can't help myself though. When I see something like that, I'm sorry, it's just, I have a pause and then it's like, 'What are you watching?'" He noted that Schwartz played at Oregon, where Nix currently plays, suggesting he should know better. forestarrow.help
