Good morning, Broncos Country!
The Denver Broncos were a win away from the Super Bowl.
That’s pretty freaking incredible, especially after the last decade. And if not for a freak injury to Bo Nix, who knows how the season would have turned out.
But the return to contention and sustained success are here, and it’s not going away either. This culture change and growth for the Broncos is very much real.
That doesn’t mean Nix and Denver will match or exceed what we witnessed this season. That means Denver had another taste of success and will be even more motivated to do so again, only this time taking a bigger bite. Imagine the determination Nix will have this offseason. Heck, the whole team.
And now George Paton will finally be able to use that Walmart money without the constraints of the Russell Wilson albatross hanging around his neck. The Broncos are a destination franchise once again, and players will want to be a part of what is being built in Denver. They also know they’ll be paid by the wealthiest ownership group in the NFL.
Free agents know that the Broncos are on the precipice of a championship. Denver has the ownership, the general manager, the head coach, and the franchise quarterback. Free agents will want to be part of the new culture.
Perhaps they will be the missing piece to get this franchise back to the Super Bowl.
