Sean looks like he is in his element; free of the distractions from last year. He sees a positive future with this team. It’s there.

[@Brute4321]

No black QBs, he is in his element

[@hotguk]

He’s had black QBs before, Bridgewater, Winston - don’t know why you have to make it racial

[@micah3213]

Brute is right, having a black QB is a huge distraction, can't have that in the locker room, god forbid Sean would have to sleep at night trying to dodge the sweat bullets coming from the knowing that a black man is his QB, phew!, thank god that evil black man is outta there.... Right, @Brute4321 ? Lol

[@lightninglotus1151]

Wow you can hear the questions? Please be like this all season! Massive W

HC Sean Payton … I’m the first in the family to become a Professional Athlete

[@LaBestiaAzul515]

Excelente trabajo de Sean Payton y los muchachos creo que tendremos una temporada bastante buena en hora buena *VAMOS BRONCOS* 🏈🐎

[@96tolife]

Nice to see SP being able to focus on the development of the team and QBs and not have to answer the endless Russell Wilson questions.

[@TimeFlyingBy1884]

Holy crap Sean Payton seems so mellow and chill this year as opposed to being like a ticking time bomb last year during press conferences. Having to deal with Russel Wilson must've taken years off his life.

[@davidgolf3245]

Bo Nix will be QB1, book it!!!! Unless TB comes out of retirement. Hope my Broncos are decent this coming year. GO BRONCOS!!!!!!!

[@tysonanderson7358]

Ha even IF TB comes out of retirement, no way he lands in Denver.

[@ThomasSmith-yn2rc]

SP lookin way happier these days

[@domg4941]

He didn’t even know who Greg was when asked about him 😂

[@mattboyce3276]

Lol I was like damn

[@rungy8214]

Be very careful making decisions based on physicality. Zach has physicality...but he finished last year in 26th place for every passing measurable stat...he is not a quick dump it off artist. Bo lives on quick dump it off passing. Bo makes lighting fast decisions and has crystal clear vision of the field.

[@lizhang9807]

did you watch that houston game, where he won AFC player of the week ...pretty sure you have to be trash for a QB to win that award

[@Hoholikzqxwk]

Zach Wilson QB1 let’s goooooooo

[@ColoradoStr8Flush]

Yo, is coach okay? He looks different to me...like not healthy wise.

[@TroikaMexicana]

haircut

[@omarsolisflores616]

Maybe some allergies

[@ExoticGamingGlitches]

he got a fade going on the sides thats all haha

[@andrewmontoya9292]

Yeah he looks sick

[@DaveC-tb3eb]

it is that time of year! This is when he earns his paycheck setting up for the whole year. has a 'Gaunt' look. thinning cheeks from weight loss, long hours...

[@slapdonuts]

He looks happy… That scares me.

[@JJTRS219]

He looks like a aged 50 years over night what’s happening to my coach 🥲

[@mbhosler1974]

I miss the days where Payton was lobbing shots at Hackett and talking about how he orchestrated the worst head coaching job in NFL history. That being said, he's on top of these questions.

[@dylanstreibig9234]

Start the best guy. Don't start NIx just b/c he's a high rookie draft pick. Everything should be legit on the table.

[@franklinlewisii9719]

Man quit lying. U know damn well these qbs ain't in no race we will see Nix week 1 out the gate I'm sure of that we just don't know who qb2 is

[@SantiagoTPC]

probably Zach Wilson since he's a younger, cheaper option. Zach playing on the Jets was like being thrown to the wolves. There was no way he was developing into a good QB with the coaching, O-Line, and the situations he was put in. Jets always ruin QBs. I don't think that Zach was good, but we can chalk it up to a coaching system that didn't work with him along with a lack of development that he needed.

[@rungy8214]

How can you have a competition without playing against a full on Pro defense? That is where Bo shines... Zach and Stiddy are not quick decision makers...not going with Bo is insanity. Zach has MAJOR issues making decisions to throw the ball.

[@scottmelton3092]

Can’t seem to accept Payton in Denver…. Just don’t seem like a good fit. He seems washed but what do I know. Gonna be rough on him to not have a top tier QB to run his style. Might get 8 wins. Not sure that’s enough for his ego.

[@SunnyDarkness]

There's always that chance that Zach Wilson beats out Stidham and Nix for the starting spot. You just never know

[@Jayybboo]

He looks sick

[@blacksheep1222]

lol Sean Payton is still trying to recreate players from New Orleans , Drew and now Jimmy 😂 Mikes sitting home now go get him coach

[@kickdeboll]

All chill till they start the season 0-4…. Team with a bunch of holes and no experience in important positions like QB. Selfish and bad money move to get rid of Russ and you’ll see the effects this year…

[@thelordofliberty6984]

Jarrett Stidham will be QB1. Nix will be QB1 in 2025.

[@usopenitentiary]

Highly doubtful

[@CCookies84]

No lol

[@brannonbeddes7380]

If he does, he is gonna get replaced by Bo a few weeks into the season.

[@thelordofliberty6984]

@@brannonbeddes7380 Hmmm...not a few weeks. Possibly by Thanksgiving.

[@brannonbeddes7380]

@@thelordofliberty6984 maybe like Tua and Fitzpatrick with the Dolphins a few years ago, but hopefully with better communication between all parties involved haha
