| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone. Welcome to Mailbag Day. How are you? I am swell at Williamson NFL if you want to give me a follow. |
| 0:14.1 | Lots of good questions today. And we're going to start with Ryan McKee, who asks, |
| 0:19.5 | so we're supposed to believe Russ was the problem with Denver's offense. Feels sound and feels like a Peyton problem. Sean Payton, Denver's head coach, of course. Everyone knows I'm a Wilson guy. You know, I would have went there. But it's only one game, folks. You know, I mean, he could crash and burn. You know, I mean, I didn't think his arm strength was wonderful. And, you know, we're not out of the woods yet. But I do think, I do think this. Frankly, let's go back a bit. His last year in Seattle, no one seems to talk about, was pretty underwhelming, you know, and they were ready to |
| 0:55.4 | move on. His first year in Denver was an utter disaster. I mean, it was some of the worst |
| 1:02.9 | coaching organization, you can imagine, and he was terrible, and they were terrible, and it was |
| 1:10.1 | terrible. And then last year, and it was terrible. |
| 1:16.7 | And then last year, I thought Wilson played much better than year one in Denver. |
| 1:21.6 | But that being said, and a lot of this is because their new ownership, you know, the Walmart people took over Denver. |
| 1:23.5 | They don't quite know how to run a team. |
| 1:25.4 | You know, they trade for Wilson, and then they go get Peyton to fix Wilson, but I'm sure |
| 1:33.5 | Peyton never would have picked Wilson. |
| 1:35.4 | You know, Peyton's a very quick processing accuracy, paint by numbers type quarterback guy. |
| 1:44.0 | That's never been Wilson's game at all. It was a terrible |
| 1:47.0 | fit. And I definitely blame Peyton for not adapting his system more to fit his quarterback. I'm |
| 1:55.4 | sure he was hired to fix Wilson, but it was almost like an unfixable problem if he's going to run his stuff, |
| 2:02.2 | square peg, round hole. Now, Wilson, since he's been here, one game and what I've seen |
| 2:08.5 | off the field and practice, etc., has been better than at any point in the last three years. |
| 2:14.7 | And I also think he has some blame there, too. Like, I bet if he gave him true serum, he would say, |
| 2:20.4 | I got embarrassed. |
| 2:23.5 | I'm not working harder, but I've changed my attitude, |
| 2:27.5 | the way that I see the game, the way I prepare to revive my legacy. |
| 2:32.7 | You know what I mean? |
