Is Russell Wilson is more concerned about building his brand or building the Broncos? by markkiszla
In a sad ending to a sad night, when Denver stunk so badly during a 12-9 overtime loss to Indianapolis that thousands of the most loyal fans in the NFL walked out on the home team with the outcome still in doubt, Wilson walked away from his postgame news conference and on his way out, muttered his trademark tagline: “Broncos Country. Let’s ride.”Both Wilson’s reputation and his team are suffering.
Wilson feels the heat. He took to social media on Saturday and tweeted a quote from Winston Churchill: “If you’re going through hell, keep going.”When a quarterback refers to himself in the third person as Mr. Unlimited, the ride is going to get bumpy when your team is averaging 15 points per game, your QB rating ranks 20th in the league and you’ve thrown fewer touchdown passes than Davis Mills.
No. 1: Wilson is genuinely obsessed with winning, which motivates him to do everything from awaking before dawn for work to spending big money on a private team that nurtures his skills and body.
