Four turnovers were one disappointing ares, particularly because three of them were made by quarterback Bo Nix. Nix threw two interceptions and lost a fumble, which led him to “thank goodness” for the play of the defense while speaking to reporters about the expectations he’s putting on himself on Wednesday.
“It’s not about the stats or it’s not about perfection by the outside, but it’s just, for me, a standard that I have for myself, and I know that I can be better,” Nix said, via the team’s website.
