This man lying through his teeth lol.

He lying….the truth is out. They threatened to bench Russ months ago if he didn’t restructure his contract

If I'm Russell Wilson give me every goddam dime you owe me. Broncos really blew it

As a bucs fan, I’ll never like this dude. There’s no soul behind those eyes

"Desperately trying to win" my ass

Drew Brees made your career shut up Sean Payton

Why does it seem likes he's happy to do this? 😂. He's smiling 😂

acting like stiddahm gonna do better or something edit: my bad for starting an arguement in the comments LMAO

Statically he isn’t the problem the team is just bad in general 😂

Looks like a sabotage to me! Russ just came back down 17 in the 4th qtr. The Defense fail to get a 3 and out. He said we're doing our best to win, win what an ego trip!!

Payton it’s YOU who should be benched and dismissed!!!!!

They've been undermining Russ since he came in...it's pretty obvious.

This might be the biggest load of shit I've ever heard lol 😆

Fire payton man... its you and the defense. Yall are the problem!!! Russ has had a good year. If defense wasnt allowing 30+ points damn near everygame and you would run more play action broncos might win. Won 5 in a row because of russ after starting 1-5 because of you and the defense... i was all for sean whej they hired him now im 100% not for it.

But we’re at the end of the season Coach Payton! Just admit the truth

His play calling is terrible, his kicker has cost us at least 2 games. He is the problem not Wilson!!!

26 tds to 8 ints 🤔

I'm a diehard broncos fan and honestly I don't want to see Sean win. He has no class and no dignity! Wilson was playing out of his mind. He wasn't on defense giving up the points. He outplayed mahomes and Allen.

Pete Carroll is laughing so hard he choked on his gum.

This year Wilson it’s actually not that bad comparing to other qb’s

This move all about business

read between the lines. They are tanking. Currently in 14th spot can move a good 5-8 spots with 2 more losses.

If "walking on egg shells" was a speech pattern.

I can’t wait for broncos to lose more games and I’m not even a broncos fan Russ deserves better

Hog wash!!! Sean Payton is over rated

Cop out Sean P😂😂😂

Crazy part is never take a pay cut the greats always say it because when they are done with you they treat you like nothing and if you think he won’t get another job you lost your mind and the way he been playing yea I’m glad he got his lil groove to going but next year whatever team he go to he will blow the broncos out the water just wait and see

Old ass Malcolm in the middle 😭

Bruh you failed as a coach, period.

Maybe they are tanking + evaluating Stidham but I think its a disrespect to Russell Wilson

Russ moving the ball down the field. Sean Payton just looking for a scapegoat and Russ is going to be just that

The broncos GM planned this from the beginning of the season. Now it makes sense why the coach wild out on him. It's about money. He can go play for the giants, commanders, colts, Steelers or patriots.

I hope for nothing but the absolute worst (football wise) for a person like Sean Payton.

Russell is his best bet. Broncos playing cheese for 2024

Russell Wilson: Pay me, mfer!

Hated Russ from the start. Paid players to injure opposing players and hid behind the reputation of drew Brees

This is not one players fault , the entire franchise, including the coach, needs to look in the mirror. He has always been a cocky and arrogant coach from his days in New Orleans. Struggle couldn’t happen to a better coach

I can’t wait for Russ to leave go to Pittsburgh with mike Tomlin where there’s a good defense and nice young receivers for Russ to work with . Peyton is overrated such a one trick pony 🤷🏾‍♂️

Yeah economics. They’re trying to save as much cash as possible to try to make moves. No way benching Russ will give you a better chance of winning with Stidham. Just admit you’ve given up on Wilson and probably had that in mind since you got there. Just waiting for the right time to execute this plan and perhaps the broncos having a terrible season even that 70 point loss was in a way manufactured by them to may Russell Wilson and the team being bad the scapegoat to execute this premeditated plan. Next time you add an injury clause also make sure to add clauses that prohibit the from benching for anything other than a legit injury that is mandated by independent Dr’s and as long as performance stays up you can’t just bench a starter for no reason. Get your money players.

This coaching staff probably been trying to tank the season with that terrible defense since they got there to undermine Russell Wilson and that contract.

Wilson was winning

He’s not even buying the bullshit he’s selling it’s all over his face seems to even sound crazy to him once he heard it out loud 😂🤡😂🤡

He dull of it they didn't want to pay Wilson for injury , He made the right decision to say no u r not getting me to let that go

My man is going to war 🐎

This is unfortunately personal. His distain for Rus oozes. Super obvious.

I bet Dan Campbell would have this team turned around!

Dayam Russell never had a great offensive line at 35 he should still playing at high level it sucks he just hasn't been the same

Wrong coach.. sorry to tell ya

Im not gonna lie. Its not just russ fault. You gotta have good receivers who they got thats a high level receiver, does he have a dk, or a aj or a mark andrews or a kelci ect. How good is his running game his o line. Cmon people

Wilson will be cut by march

Lying . To me, you had it out for Russell all along!

He came in wanting to cut Russ

If Kendras mans doesn't drop that onside kick, this man would've been leftover a decade ago

A spark? What about that spark Russell Wilson gave your ass when you were down 23-7 to the patriots? Brought you ALL the way back and then got benched. My team has turned into some fuckin clowns😂

Love to see real football common sense in the comments and no parroting media talking points

I think Sean Payton don’t like black QB’s

Seems like he’s not a good man. Brees protected him

Bro couldn’t look at anyone even when he faked looking up

I’m so glad Russell came out to refute this bullshit

Y my guy look n sound like Bruce Willis in a way 😅

gave up on russ too soon oh well its only 260 mill the second he started showing signs of life. if you have a system round russ hell succeed. if you have a playcaller thats too stubborn to adjust his system to talent than its pry more on coaching. love sean im a life long denver fan and it pains me to see this not work and sean has definitely turned the team around but this is a bad call. only way this would be justified is if demver traded for the no 1 pick and got caleb

Wow as a cardinals fans Sean Payton mad at Russell Wilson and Sean think that Russell Wilson false idk know why would sean Payton want be at bronco headcoach trying to wins yelling at the quarterback and now Russell Wilson got bench i so sorry for Russell and broncos make bad choice it go thank goodness sean Peyton didn't choice the cardinals that could be worse but cardinals suck anyway 😬😮‍💨

Sean Payton overrated af

Just say you didnt like the Bruh! No need for all the bull!

scapegoat. this guy is the most over rated coach on sports.

Wtf happened to the broncos as an org... wow

Win with that x Raider QB 😅 i can't stand the Broncos but you did disrepect Wilson on national TV on the sidelines.... and you're lying you guys don't want to pay Wilson in his last option year 37 million...

Sean Peyton is an overrated coach. I'm definitely not defending team 3😂 though.

How good was sean with out Brees again?

If you're desperately trying to win why was most of the play calling for the running game and not A more balanced attack. Why were you limiting Russell snaps when he wouldn't take less money

Why do the raiders and broncos keep copying each other? Don’t they see it not work out for the other team the first time?

Desperately trying to lose. He brought y’all to this record with a chance for the playoffs

People on Russ’s back rn, i want to see how fast they turn when broncos win the last 2 games. It is what it is, Nfl key warriors know 0 ball.

Russ isnt playing that bad like yeah offensively they don’t put up alot of points but Sutton is really there only receiver if anyone needs to be released or benched is their defensive coordinator

Stop being so mean Sean he is not drew😮

If Pete Carroll had the balls to do this he wouldn’t be struggling to get in the playoffs at 8-7 🤷🏾‍♂️ if he has benched inconsistent Gino

This should violate the conscious of any ethical person. A "Coach" mid-season cannot be allowed to compel a player mid-season to change his contract or be benched. That reeks of ethics foul play. Both parties agreed to it...Russ just throws footballs...talk to the agent man. Peyton acts like he's the only one with skin in the game. Russ packed up his whole family. Embraced an unsuccessful team, unsuccessful coach(s) seeking superbowl glory. Never stopped believing. Russ went on a win streak and continued to perform all while being attacked and harassed by the Coach and organization. Unfathomable. This only adds to the legend of Russel Wilson! He gave you 25+ TDs to 6 picks without a Doug Baldwin, and WR stars, a system everyone knew, and an organization that was crapping on him for agreeing to a deal they no longer support. My hat is off to Russell Wilson. This guy is special and they (Bronco's, NFL) don't deserve him. Take a knee like Kaep..smh. i know he got professional goals and is a stand up guy, but this was foul. Take a knee like Kaep!

Pants on fire

Russ is not his guy… There’s nothing wrong with that lol

Watch the new quarterback get hurt and then they will need Russell.

Hes getting a percentage of the teams savings

well you definetly finna lose now lol

Wilson better than that bum ass qb throwing with his left hand.. pete carroll was a great coach was good to russ and kept him positive. This guy sean payton needs to take some responsibility.

I have a friend who always said it was Bree’s but Payton and I’m seeing what’s he’s talking about

Honestly the only person to blame is Sean Payton he’s a horrible coach very set in his ways he is know for overplaying players and he uses old and outdated tactics and strategies that teams know how to counter hence the losses

Make it make sense smh

They BS’ ing him europeans do lie

I’ll hate to say it but coach giving racist vibes….

It's that 36 milli

DONT LIE TO THE FANS YOU DONT WANT HIM HURT AND HAVE TO PAY HIM SNEAKY SNAKE YOU WANT TO WIN BUT BENCH YOUR #1 QUARTERBACK IS BENCHED MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL.

You know he lying

Bro who else yall even got ? You tweaking. Sound like the Patriots about to upgrade 🤷🏾‍♂️

Payton is full of BS. What a liar

Humiliating a grown man for all world to see will help you win.

Mr Payton…. 🤦🏽‍♀️ you doing it all wrong…but we all understand…and this will turn on you….and I got my Orville Renbocker ready this is going to be good!

Broncos will never ber successful with this coach. He is arrogant and lacks accountability

Lying buster. You would never did that to brees.

Sean was paid to do a job, get rid of russ, job well done coach. No one respects the hard jobs. Thats why there are only 32 jobs available. Not everyone can do it.

Wow.

Is a losing team. Russell made it worst. They thought that Contract was a good idea. 😂 No team would want Russell after the past 2 year performance and results. So is fair he will go for all of it since to Russell means his retirement.
