denver is in cap hell for 2024 but after that they have 111 mil in room in 2025 the best for allinloved is to see if the rams would take him in the offseason because 1 he wouild play seattle 2x a year 2 he wouild fit better in mcbay off 3 that the only team he would agree to go to he likes the west coast
For your sake I hope that happens.

today was a dispointed to be kind i have a lot of q overall denver over the last 6 years has been going for the short term fix and it come home to roots

today was just missed tackles and speed the off is deloped just cant pass pro the def has regessed from last season that the biggest plom in retrospect maybe we shouild of hired arizona HC and let payton go to arizona

Their best hope (like many teams) is to bottom out and draft the next QB. For Denver, that pick could take over in 2025. Wilson was a swing, which you can't really fault. But it definitely has not worked out thus far. This Miami game is an outlier, but they are going to struggle this year.

sure they plob need to bottom out but i dont think peyton ego will let it happen if we keep wilson past this year he will have to stay utill at least after the 2025 season
the 1 2nd guess u can make is wouild denver been better off hireing arizona coach pick yes they are 1-2 but are in every game and play very hard

the tipping point was after the 2021 season when instead of wilson denver keeps the picks and gets QB K Pickett WR G Pickins OT P Johnson Jr CB Joey porter Jr DE Keion White keeps Fant S Harris D Jones and go from there

I mean, that probably would never happen. But if Denver has the #1 pick and can get a top 4 this year and future 1st and 2nds...I listen... probably am very intrigued. IF my scouts say Caleb isn't the guy. But for all those stars to align is probably not going to happen. Take the QB on the rookie contract.

i also said this at mhr a broncos blog

this is what happents when great owners leave or pass away

this is on joe eillis for 2017 and letting a feau with someone dad get in the way of good businees sense

this is on john elway for thinking that 2015 was a buleprint when after 2016 shouild had got Doug petetson and when heavy on off

this is on sean payton for re-hire vance joseph and not doing enrough to get mahomes for the saints

this is on grogre patton for giveing up 7 players to get 1

this is on the walton-penner group for going with the big name instead of arizona HC who with the same level of talent beat dallas yestday

great comeback but that bears coach did a all-time goof not kicking the FG when tied at 28

for the record denver is a bad football team but this win MIGHT wake up denver to be 3-5 or 4-4 at the bye

it's looking likey denver will get to 5-7 wins getting them in pugtory for years to come

and more nightmare news wilson is not the plomem it's vance joseph no pass rush and no pass blk

How the heck did Russell Wilson just drop like such a huge rock the past two seasons? Is this what Max Kellerman referred to when he said Brady would fall off a cliff?

From 2018-2021: 66.5%, 7.8 y/a, 131 td, 31 int, 106.3 rating, teams were successful
From 2022-2023: 62.0%, 7.2 y/a, 28 td, 15 int, 88.5 rating, 5-16 record

also what happ he had a tumb inj in 2021 as well

see seattle also could had traded him to philly or wash but he refuse those teams

denver throuht after 2021 they were just a qb away which is why they made that move

but hackett wanted him with russ to just be a pocket passer

and then in 2023 payton wanted the denver job because he throught he couild win faster there than in arizona

also the new owners wanted the 'bigger' name when in retrosept

in 2022 shouild had drafted QB K Pickett then at 40 couild had george pickins at wr
and in 2023 couild had paris johnson jr at 5 and joe tirppmann at c also without the trade wouild still have te n fant and de demont jones most likely

also instead of paying payton 18 mil a year shouild had just kept hackett for 22 and 23 and try to woo bill b for a 3 year run starting in 24

and with those draft moves we couild had avoid OT M mlinghy contact among others as well

about sunday game denver biggest short term is lack of td's in redzone

if denver can improve their pass blocking and run stopping they can be a thorn in playoff teams chanes

here is my guess on how denver season will play out

KC - L but if they somehow win it couild sit up a run

@ buff tossup if buff its on their game we have no shot but if allen is careless with the ball

MINN W
Cle Tossup
@ hou tossup
@ lac tossup
@det L
NE W
LAC Tossup
@ vegas tossup

most likely 6-11 or 7-10 but a denver win sunday couild sit up a 9-8 type of team that will get buzz for 24

midseason report

QB - wilson is up/down is best as a game manger likely denver qb utill after the 2025 season
RB best spot on the team have 3 very good rb's
WR jerdy will likely stay utill 2024 suttion is a pefect fit for payton off mims jr is the speed
OL above ave at run blk below ave at pass blk
DL wish they had more pass rush but is starting to gel
LB young agg has a lot of pormise
CB with simmons back and moneau stattle in at num 2 cb

bottom line we need to treat week 10 like a playoff game

we need another WR and our guys to get healthy on the line. 10-7 probably best Jets can hope for. WC should be interesting race in AFC

Sorry about your dad, J.

Even if your team doesn’t make it because of the slow start, Payton has them playing organized football for the first time in a while.

father passed around 5 hr ago
So sorry for your loss. My own dad passed 20 years ago on the day before that Thanksgiving, so I know how this happening around the holidays adds to how difficult a time this is for you.
