5 more years of Wilson, with no picks and eventual cap hell leaving no way to fix it. There is no light at the end of the tunnel. The Chiefs were ending that nightmare, the Broncos just signed up for it.
Yep...and there is one little thing too...Mahomes.
They needed to land a prime HGH Manning level QB to compete...which is what they duped their fans into believing they were getting with Wilson.
He's toast...I'm actually pretty shocked at how bad he is...and has been like this for a year and a half. That INT with the game on the line...where have we seen that before? [Reply]
Sure Hackett isn't a good coach, but Wilson should be getting more blame than Hackett. If Wilson was playing like the guy the idiot donk fans thought he was, then they'd be 4-0 and Hackett would be a NFL Coach of the Year candidate.

This is on Wilson much more than Hackett.
Yup. Hackett is bad but players win and lose games more than coaches. [Reply]
I agree with that this is on Wilson, he has the tools to succeed there, he just isn't doing it. Clearly the Broncos cannot evaluate and select talent at the QB position. They just keep doing the same thing over and over again hoping that it will work differently.
I don't know how anyone could support someone being paid that much to have the second lowest scoring offense in the NFL. It seems like his performance is just falling off quickly or that he has always had a receiver that bails him out when needed. [Reply]

I think they are terrible but that 7th seed is a fodder spot...like the Steelers last year.
It'll take every trick they have to get them to that point...especially with the injuries.
The 2015 Broncos team only failed to surpass 16 points in 3 games. They were nowhere near as terrible looking as this offense. I mean, they can't produce a TD at home vs IND and up until they final few minutes. Hell, another redzone turnover and then with :08 left the game is tied.
These Broncos on offense are redefining terrible and it would take a monumental effort to transform them into a playoff team at this point. [Reply]
