That’s the problem. In the NFC you might be able to make the SB bc the QB’s aren’t great. The AFC is loaded with good QB’s.
Nix has to be special enough to beat Mahomes, Allen, Stroud, Burrow and Lamar. He would have to go through at least 2 of them to make the SB. That’s not counting paying the WC against a good QB like Lawrence, Herbert, Tua or Rodgers first.
You need a HOF caliber QB in this conference. Only 2 QB’s that are not HOF’s (Flacco, Burrow) have represented the AFC in the SB in the last 20 years.
Brady, Manning, Big Ben and Mahomes have represented the AFC in 20 of the last 23 seasons when the Patriots dynasty was born. That’s 87% of the time.
