Sean Payton believes the Broncos had the potential to beat the Chiefs in the playoffs, emphasizing confidence in the team’s future.
Denver: So, Sean Payton is feeling pretty confident about the Broncos. He thinks they could’ve taken down the Chiefs in the playoffs. He’s not just talking; he really believes it.
During a recent press conference, Broncos CEO Greg Penner threw some shade at the Chiefs. He mentioned how the Broncos could’ve easily been 2-0 against them this season. That’s some serious confidence!
Payton echoed that sentiment, saying they’re focused on the future and winning their division. He feels good about the team’s chances if they can just get past the Bills. It’s all about looking ahead, not back.
But let’s be real, the Bills gave the Broncos a tough time last weekend. Payton admitted they didn’t play well enough, but he sees a fine line between winning and losing. It’s all about the little things, like the players and the line of scrimmage.
He knows they need to step up their game, especially in the running back department. The Broncos haven’t had a solid running game since he arrived, and that’s a big deal. They need to find a reliable back to compete.
Payton promised they’ll stack the running back position because one guy just won’t cut it in this league. It’s crucial to have depth there, especially with the playoffs in mind.
Looking at the AFC, all the top teams have running backs who carry the ball a lot. The Broncos need to catch up. If they want to run with the big dogs, they’ve got to improve their running game.
Penner and Payton are right about one thing: the Chiefs can’t keep winning close games forever. They’ve had a good run, but things might change. The Broncos need to focus on getting better this offseason.
In the end, it’s all about actions, not just words. The Broncos are trying to get back on their feet, but they need to step up their game to really compete in the AFC.
