Rich Eisen on How Sean Payton & the Broncos Get Past Giving Up 70 Points to the Miami Dolphins

[@TophsterOven]

Sean Payton deserves a lot more blame for that loss than he'll ever take.

[@ace448]

His lack of accountability is worrying. His lack of ownership is poor leadership

[@natureboy6268]

Literally my thoughts exactly. Everyone is putting it on the defensive coordinator, who is also one of the most responsible for this blowout, but definitely feels like Sean Payton should be getting exposed more for this loss than he is. His team completely gave up just like Rich said. At least it felt like the giants were trying on defense when they lost to the cowboys this year by 40.

[@baronb5103]

Payton would be getting more if Sutton didn't have 2 fumbles and 2 dropped td passes. Hard to say they didn't have a good offensive game plan

[@natureboy6268]

@@baronb5103 I mean isn't one of your best receivers on the team dropping passes and fumbling kind of on the "offensive" minded head coach Sean Payton? Also the broncos just made so many mistakes in that game it was like they were asking the dolphins to score. It would have almost been more disrespectful if they didn't score in some instances.

[@michaeljohnson7945]

Yup, you can’t give up 70 points without players quitting on the coaches. Huge disaster out there in Denver.

[@bruxi78230]

This conversation rarely happens in baseball when a team loses by 15 runs. The embarrassed team just goes out the next day and usually plays a much better game. In the case of the Broncos they have a week to get ready for a fellow lame team, the Bears.

@@bruxi78230 Baseball has 162 games. You can chalk up a bad night to "it just wasn't our night, we'll get 'em tomorrow". When you have a mere 17 games and you give up 70 points, it's potentially disastrous. It's possible that they'll rebound and get their act together, but if they end up 4-13 or something pitiful, this game will looked at very closely.

"But everybody’s got a little stink on their hands, it’s not just Russell. It was a (poor) offensive line. It might have been one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL. That’s how bad it was." -Sean Payton

[@blacksheep1222]

How would Rich know 😂

[@DenOndeMister]

Any man who acts prideful and arrogant in an interview after his team loses by 50 is lacking in accountability. Unprofessional. Broncos aren’t saving this in years.

[@Tampa81333]

Not true. That's how a true alpha male act

[@DenOndeMister]

@@Tampa81333 It's not alpha to pout in defeat like a five year old. Men own their mistakes and take responsibility.

[@jamesrider452]

Think about all the draft picks lost the last 2 drafts, think about players Denver can not get players because of current and future cap space all of this for a shot QB Russell Wilson, they could only score 20 points when the Miami defence was giving the the short gains in order to run time off clock with a huge lead. Russell Wilson is the core of the problem, they blamed coach last year fired him and keep Russell and things have only got worse , not to mention Sean Payton is deer in headlights with out Drew Brees.

[@artistjim114]

Russ has a ring too, and been to more super bowls.

[@joshramirez7]

💯

[@raynovicio7332]

Didn't see the game but did Miami run up the score? That will come back to them (Dolphins)

[@stevenjackson7956]

Nope they put their backups in and the broncos still couldn’t stop them

[@PinkHitMe]

They threw like one pass in the third with their backup and gashed em with a guy who was their 4th string the week before. Broncos d just completely gave up on the staff

[@ShawnnyPerkins]

Russ literally played as well as Tua. HE THE LAST ONE WHO DESERVES BLAME. The defense is awful. The locker room is undisciplined. Payton can do nothing good all year and keep his job.

[@kato1kalin]

Its not a 70 burger Its a 70 steamer

[@newt4949]

Payton deserves it but Denver doesn't deserve it.

[@donyandresen8063]

The defense stinks!

[@mlyle1000mobile]

You don't do that to a SB winning QB who has been there twice and Payton once. Children eating their broccoli??? Pfft listen to yourself that's all I will say on that. Bet you he would not have left Brees out there like that. Period.

[@DaltonRiley25]

I love seeing him get hit hard by karma he needs more

[@chikowashere]

Somebody gotta get fired for this. I don't care if it's Peyton or a coordinator, or the entire defense getting benched, or Russell getting benched. There has to be a consequence.

[@WarGhoulKharas]

Fire Sean Payton?

[@supanova4126]

Not taking sides in this but Rich said Sean is the one with ring. Russ has one too. And almost another. Sean’s team cheated and won one. Drew Brees won one.
