Broncos Face Criticism Amidst Preseason Developments

The Pittsburgh Steelers are embroiled in a quarterback debate involving Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, with former Broncos player Mark Schlereth criticizing Wilson's performance and suggesting he is jeopardizing his Hall of Fame chances. Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos have officially named Bo Nix as their starting quarterback, with Zach Wilson potentially stepping in as a backup after showing improvement during the preseason. Coach Sean Payton has expressed concerns over the team's high penalty count, which hindered their performance in recent games. Additionally, Payton discussed his strategic drafting of Nix, revealing attempts to mislead the Raiders about their interest in the quarterback. Schlereth's comments highlight ongoing frustrations with quarterback decision-making impacting game plans, contrasting sharply with Payton's previous experiences coaching Drew Brees. Broncos fans remain eager to see if Nix can live up to the hype surrounding his early selection in the draft.
