It’s infuriating the Broncos don’t know how to win, but what’s far worse is now a once-proud NFL franchise doesn’t even know how to act with class in defeat.
DENVER, COLORADO – OCTOBER 8: Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton walks the sidelines on October 8, 2023 in Denver, Colorado. The Denver Broncos lost 31 to 21 to the New York Jets at Empower Field at Mile High during week 5 of the NFL season. It’s infuriating the Broncos don’t know how to win, but what’s far worse is how a once-proud NFL franchise doesn’t even know how to act in defeat.
And captain Kareem Jackson, whose futile wave at Breece Hall was as close as any Denver defender came to touching the Jets running back on a 72-yard touchdown run that put New York ahead to stay in the third quarter, had to be prodded by a member of the Broncos public relations staff before reluctantly taking account for a unit that surrendered an average of 219 yards rushing over the course of the past four games.
Prior to kickoff, tight end C.J. Uzomah gathered his New York teammates in the end zone of Empower Field, cursing Payton for making this game “personal” by taking a dig at the Jets and blasting former Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett for “one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL.” Payton upped the ante by making it personal, and when the Jets called his bluff, the Broncos folded, coughing up the 13-8 lead they took into halftime.
