As a self-appointed scholar of what 'one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL' looked like for Nathaniel Hackett and the Denver Broncos in 2022, Sean Payton didn't need to be told where Sunday's tectonic debacle ranked. But he was reminded anyway, because this is how it works in the NFL. It's a contact sport. If you throw hands (or words) off the field, you're liable to get paid back on it, especially in a league that thrives on scoreboard karma.
. The defeat dropped Denver to 0-3 and the Broncos are unexpectedly reeling. The problems? We'll get to that. First, about that karma, here's the snippet that Payton had to live through in Sunday's news conference.Payton: “I’m aware.”Payton: “What’s the question? What’s the question?”Payton: “I just finished telling you. Next question.”
“I’m at a loss for words because I’ve never been in — I’ve been on the other side of some games like that,” Payton said. “And then every once in a while in this league, you get your butt whooped — but this was more than that.”Taken in the wider context of league history, it should concern everyone in the organization, from Payton and the locker room to the front office and ownership.
If Sunday was some kind of mismatch between scheme and talent, then it means the word “rebuild” is going to become more prominent if additional losses mount. If it was simply a matter of being completely out of whack in building a plan for the Dolphins, then it means a wrench will be taken to the assistant coaching staff or preparation. If it’s a little bit of everything, then these Broncos are in for the type of pain that might match last season’s massively disappointing 5-12 finish.
Whether that’s effort-related will be a question Payton has to sort through, but he is already being zinged by some of his former peers — most prominently former Dallas Cowboys head coach and current NBC analyst Jason Garrett, who pulled no punched Sunday night.
