Denver Broncos beat the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks 17-14 in overtime on Thursday night, but former NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick draws attention away from the result by sharply criticizing Broncos quarterback Bo Nix. In postgame coverage for Prime Video, Fitzpatrick says Nix’s performance is “almost disrespectful” to the quarterback position and adds other strong critiques of the play.
Other outlets report that Fitzpatrick’s comments are echoed in tone by co-analyst Tony Gonzalez, who suggests Nix could be benched following an “anemic” showing. While the Broncos win is described as thrilling and comes despite Denver’s offensive struggles, the focus across the articles remains on Fitzpatrick’s view that Nix’s play does not meet the expectations tied to the quarterback role. The outlets differ mainly in how they quote and characterize Fitzpatrick’s language, but they consistently present the same core point: he is highly critical of Nix’s Thursday night performance.
