It seems that Bo has been the center of attention after the Broncos' recent win against the New Orleans Saints. Many were concerned about his throwing abilities, as he had some misses during the game that left people unsettled. However, we must remember that one game does not define someone's career.
There were some valid factors that contributed to Bo's performance, such as the team not having enough practice time leading up to the game. As right tackle Mike McGlinchey stated, in a short amount of time, they were able to focus on the important aspects and execute them well. This led to a much better game compared to previous weeks.
But despite this, there are still some fans who are frustrated with Bo's performance. They believe that he is not a good passer, and they compare him to other quarterbacks like Lamar Jackson and Jayden Daniels. However, let's look at the facts. Bo completed 16 out of 26 passes for 164 yards, which is not a bad record. He did start off the game poorly, but it was his first time playing in a primetime game. Can we give him a little bit of grace?
Some fans even compared Bo to Tim Tebow, which is not entirely fair. While both have strong faith and confidence, their throwing abilities are not the same. Tebow struggled with his accuracy during his time with the Broncos, only completing 46.7% of his passes and rarely surpassing 50%. Bo, on the other hand, has a completion rate of 61.2%, with only one game where he fell below 50% due to weather conditions.
But despite his stats, there are still some who doubt Bo's potential and believe that he will not improve. They are quick to criticize him and declare that he is not the right quarterback for the team. However, let's not forget that Bo is only the 14th starting quarterback for the Broncos since Peyton Manning retired. And he is the first top pick that the coach actually wanted. Coach Sean Payton believes in Bo and has praised his work ethic and competitiveness. He has also defended Bo's confidence, which he takes very seriously.
But let's not jump to conclusions just yet. Payton has never developed a rookie quarterback, and yet he has a 12-12 overall record. The Broncos have also won three consecutive road games for the first time since 2015. Maybe, just maybe, Payton knows what he's doing?
We must also remember that the Broncos have had a history of successful quarterbacks, such as John Elway and Peyton Manning. This has created high expectations and impatience among fans. But we must understand that Bo is still a work in progress. He was the sixth quarterback taken in the draft, and history has shown that those players do not have the best track record. It was always known that Bo would need time to develop and improve his skills. And let's not forget, he has shown moments where he looks like the future of the team, and we must give him the time and support he needs to reach his full potential.
