NFL Trade Rumors
Coming off a slow 1-2 start, the Broncos trampled the Bengals in Week 4 behind a career-high 326 passing yards from QB Bo Nix. The second-year quarterback is looking to find ways they can get better even after a win, and spoke on the importance of being able to keep multiple offensive playmakers involved.
“There’s always gonna be noise,” Nix said, via Grant Gordon of NFL.com. “I’m sure after this win people are gonna have a lot they want to see us fix or whatever, so there’s always noise. There’s always ways to improve, just it’s a little bit better of a feeling when you win the game watching it again and fixing those mistakes because you know you won. The last few weeks have stunk because you lose the game and you know there’s so much that you miss, so many opportunities that you had, so it’s a lot better on the winning side.”
“I thought I had good vision today. I thought I did a good job of seeing things. We had a good plan and I was really clued into what I needed to see. The guys just get open.

“Gardner’s a brilliant guy, first of all,” Reid said, via Myles Simmons of Pro Football Talk. “I know he’s got the mustache and the hair and all that stuff that goes with it. But he’s brilliant. He’s got such a good feel for things as far as the game goes, and I think it’s great for Pat to be able to talk to him. He understands — he’s been a starter and understands when to speak and when not to speak and when to jump in or not jump in.”
“I’ve appreciated having him here. He’s a lot of fun to be with, too. He’s got quite a wit.”
Raiders DE Maxx Crosby recorded his first interception in Week 4 on top of three tackles for loss, three passes defended, five pressures and a forced fumble. Las Vegas HC Pete Carroll couldn’t say enough about the star pass rusher’s ability to make plays in...
