FilthyBeast Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Considering the Broncos are very much alive for the playoffs they are basically making the decision to move from Wilson now. Regardless I actually though he had a solid bounce back type of year and can't blame him for losing to the Patriots. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelius Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Russ cooking with a pack of ramen and a boiled hot dog. He has no connection with Jeudy and now Sutton is banged up. It was a disaster move even with him not being as terrible as he was last year, so this seems inevitable. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Russ has actually had a pretty decent season for the most part even though he's asked to do a lot of things outside his skillet. Payton was always going to get rid of him after this year and get "his guy". 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless I actually though he had a solid bounce back type of year and can't blame him for losing to the Patriots. Fixed it for you. Just went thru the NY Times playoff simulator. Best I could get were there chance up to 11% thru this weekend and that was with some unlikely outcomes this week. I get it, anything can happen, but is unlikely they get in. They also are playing a 4:25 game so could wait to see outcome of earlier games and make a last minute call.

That had to be very embarrassing If you need to tear your player a new one do it in private Very disappointed with all the Sean Payton antics this years right down to the throwing "our buddy" Nathanial Hackett under the bus (even though he deserved it). Payton's ego is wildly out of control and it manifests itself in some very destructive counterproductive outcomes. He is no longer a young wonderkid but an aging angry old Head Coach. He should have kept his TV gig. Edited December 27, 2023 by RoyBatty is alive 5 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyBatty is alive Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 Remember when they hired Sean Payton and he was going to do magic with a short QB in Russell Wilson just like he did with Drew Brees!!! What a joke, set the Broncos back few years with nothing to show for it, Going to be the same Result for the Jets and no I dont think Rodgers will come back as some incredible QB at 40/41. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted December 27, 2023 Share Posted December 27, 2023 OOOOOOOUUUCCCH. I mean, it might actually be the best chance for them to make the postseason, but even with Sean Payton being a massive upgrade over Nate Hackett, that is a telling condemnation.

He kinda did. Wilson went from 16 TD's and 11 INT's last season (without Payton), to 26 TD's and 8 INT's this year (with Payton). That's a 75% increase in TD's and a 27% decrease in INT's. I am impressed with the job Payton has done. The Broncos are worlds better than they were under Hackett last season. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didnt hire Sean Peyton and pay him up to $100 million to get 26 TD/8 int season out of Wilson, it was a grand slam contract, either he gets the Broncos to win playoff game or two or not. He likely wont even make the playoffs. Hiring Payton was, a disaster imo. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
