Payton and Wilson

[Shocker]

Russell Wilson was so overrated and Denver is going to pay for making that move. Payton won’t change that.  I can see some serious infighting happening even as soon as next season

Worth noting though that the offseason didn't exactly go as Payton planned.

He thought he'd be able to pick his spot. Instead he ended up with the only team that still wanted him.

He could've always stayed on the booth and tried again next year.

That was actually my expectation.

Felt like Denver went into full court press mode after they lost out in their other choices.

I understand why people don't like Wilson but the man proved many times that he can win football games.  If Payton can find anything under all that fakeness the broncos could jump back sooner than expected.  Odds aren't good and I'm rooting against it but get ready to hear all about it to start out season 2023.

The next several years may not be a good time to be a Denver Bronco fan.

Is Bradshaw a dick spewing stuff told to him in confidence off the record or is Payton a dick and Bradshaw is just like "fug this guy, watch me kick the hornet's nest". Well... we know Payton is a dick, so....

I would thoroughly enjoy every minute of it if this is true but Terry Bradshaw is legitimately insane so you can't really believe it.

I don’t think the Wilson story is true. He’s stuck with Wilson for 3 years at a minimum. You don’t take the job if you can’t work with Wilson.

Look at the guaranteed money in Wilson's contract. You don't take that job unless you think you can fix him because you're stuck with him.

His ego is larger than Wilson's. He is arrogant enough to think he can fix him enough to win with him.  Also Denver is a much better organization than Arizona.  Payton makes bank either way.

I don't think Payton has his own personal team that follows him around everywhere - Wilson's ego is larger.

Bradshaw doesn’t seem like a guy who would make something up

This the same terry bradshaw who said Sam Darnold was the best qb the panthers ever had.
