He's long been propped up by solid coaching defenses and run game. I've enjoyed the watching him wreck his train. I expect more of the same until Payton pulls the plug. well, it did all get started with this, whatever THIS is 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best I've seen is Parcells with the AFC East and Cowboys. Wasn't there also some guy a few hours up the road from Parcells' former location who ran it all as head coach and GM and who won a couple or six Super Bowl rings?

I'm saying these guys who retire after a lengthy career, and then are brought back to run another team at outrageous prices. I don't have an exact timeline in front of me, but Belichick went from Cleveland to the Jets and then landed in New England. He wasn't some aged/retired Coach in 2000.

FireChans Posted September 6, 2023 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Sean Payton sucks. Nothing would make me happier than the Broncos sucking just as hard as they did last year. Then Payton can field questions about what’s different about last year and the worst coach job in NFL history 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't even see Sean Peyton turning "let's ride" around. And if he does could you imagine what he could've done with Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Behindenemylines Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Was never a huge fan of his. Seemed overhyped for a slightly better than average QB. He seemed like an ok guy though until last 4-5 years when he started believing his own propaganda machine. I just don’t see his career getting better this year under SP. he will probably be put in better positions to succeed but his physical talents have diminished so much it may not make much difference.

Thurman#1 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 5 hours ago, babulator said: Throw him on the pile of Mark Rypiens and Trent Dilfers. They got one yes, but they were not the reason. For some reason people kept voting him into the Pro-bowl though, I never quite got it. Rypien and Differ are as different as salt and Chevrolets. Rypien was a decent game manager lifted by a spectacular team and Rypien was one of the two or three best QBs in the league for a year or two until an unexplainable fall-off which we now know to have been a really serious series of concussions. Wilson I think won't be as good as he was because a lot of his success came at how spectacular he was at escaping rushes and he's getting to the age where he'll never be that athletic again. But he still could improve a ton this year. Not a sure thing by any means but possible, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The roster is a different story, but if he can get Russ back to form and retain their strong defense which will be even better when they aren’t on the field all day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 8 hours ago, The Frankish Reich said: I'm somewhere in between "he's done" and "he'll be back to the old Russell Wilson." People who didn't have the misfortune of watching every Broncos game last year (living in CO I did, just so I'd have something to talk about on Monday) probably can't comprehend exactly how effin awful Nathaniel Hackett was. Just incredibly unprepared on offense and special teams. Wilson showed a little of the old flash late in the season and has looked leaner and more athletic in preseason so far. His main problem now: no one to throw too with a ton of injuries in the receiving corps. Hackett getting a head coach job is the most absurd turn of events I can recall in a long time. We saw his nfl entrance first hand. He was terrible… awful nepotism man. It the only reason he’s not a safety monitor at the local trampoline park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikie2times Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) Russ was never good enough to justify the Denver trade. In a balanced situation he most certainly regresses last year but nothing to extent we saw. Now his legacy of ever being a solid QB is in jeopardy and I expect he will have an above average season. As most have pointed out unless you saw those Broncos games, it was hard to comprehend just how bad Hackett was. Players don't typically take linear paths. It's more jagged unless this is the end but I think it's a bit soon to call it that. In his prime and what we likely see a bit this year he was mobile, outstanding deep ball, and very good accuracy. Not the best guy reading the field or getting the ball out but elite in the other areas. Tyrod was sort of a poor mans version. Wilson was much better than Tyrod stretching the field but similar skills. Edited September 7, 2023 by Mikie2times 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
