Before kickoff on Thursday night, Denver Broncos receiver Jerry Jeudy was focused on picking an argument with NFL Network's Steve Smith, then dancing behind him on the sideline.
KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI - OCTOBER 12: Chris Jones #95 of the Kansas City Chiefs sacks Russell Wilson #3 of the Denver Broncos during the second quarter at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium on October 12, 2023 in Kansas City, Missouri. Maybe that wasn't the biggest deal, but it was telling. It summed up the 2023 Broncos.
After Jeudy was preoccupied with Smith before the game, the Broncos did what they usually do and lose a game. The Chiefs didn't play well and still won 19-8, knocking the Broncos down to 1-5 this season. Jeudy had one yard on two catches at halftime. The Chiefs beat the Broncos for the 16th straight time. Somewhere, Jeudy is probably scrolling social mediaThe Broncos seem to have a pattern.
Wilson in particular had a miserable night. He threw an interception right to linebacker Nick Bolton in the first half. He threw another in the second half that was tipped at the line. On a night the Broncos defense actually helped keep the team in the game against Patrick Mahomes, Wilson made very little happen. Wilson hasn't been that bad this season but his night Thursday will fuel everyone who insists he's the only problem.
The Broncos could have pulled the upset had they just gotten a little better night out of the offense. That wasn't meant to be, which isn't surprising for this year's Broncos.The Broncos are in bad shape. The Wilson trade was one of the worst in NFL history. And somehow, the trade for Payton might be just as bad. Payton isn't helping anything.The biggest problem the Broncos face is this seems like a multi-year rebuild ahead.
