Nix dealing with elevated batted passes due to protection breakdowns.

Bo Nix has more batted passes than in the past. Sean Payton attributed this to a combination of good defensive line play and protection issues; Payton said 'both happened yesterday' with some protection issues and technique issues putting defenders in his face that need to be cleaned up.
