Thread: We Love Penix

Seeing a lot of people saying Bo Nix is a great fit for SP's offense and is a natural fit. Now I'm kinda back into the Nix and crannies more than the Penix, if you know what I mean.

My Penix is going deep into your nix’s crannies!

Fyi MO loves Penix.

Kiss of death?

I do too.

Bo Nix seems like a Shanny Jr kind of QB, so Jaded would love that

Nix isn’t as accurate as Pennix.

The injury red flags make him a huge gamble. It will be interesting to see what his stock is after the combine.

Any mock for us should just be CB’s, safeties and TE’s….patons bread and butter..

Penix hasn’t been rattled like the NGC since he was at Indiana. His offensive line did a great job protecting him most of the year giving him plenty of time to make those throws. I believe those old injuries are haunting his mind.

I’ll use Bryce Young as an example. He was exceptional at Alabama because his offensive line did the same. Now on a mediocre Panthers team, he is struggling. I get a team has to build around him, but QBs have to adjust to adverse situations. In other words, scrabble around or tuck & run.

It's not a matter for me of him being rattled, but my concern is rather the risk of reinjury due to previous injury. A throwing shoulder issue and two ACL tears in his medical makes him have too too many red flags to even have on the draft board. He reminds me of Sam Bradford in this sense. Tremendous potential, but the looming likelihood of reinjury will at some point cause his career to collapse. I would rather not take that kind of gamble on the QB position, especially not with a first round pick.

I concur.

I have heard the same thing, but haven’t heard the details of why he is such a great fit. If it’s true, then I don’t have an issue with drafting him.

So what exactly is “fits the system” for SP?

Nix better have something more to offer than “fits the system”, what does he bring to the table when SP decides he doesn’t want to stick around for rebuild?

Welp

Poor kid can’t buy a break.

To be clear; Nix reads like another Jarret Stidham, that’s not a Shanahan QB. Is he has the 1st round arm talent I don’t see a problem with that pick. But does he, though?
