Training camps sprout superficial optimism, but the change in Denver goes beyond aesthetics. Payton sees roots growing. Broncos Insider TroyRenck breaks down the first day of training camp:
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Sean Payton arrived in Denver with eyes wide open. This wasn't the 2006 New Orleans Saints, who were flattened by football and thrown into chaos by a hurricane. But he inherited a team that spiraled close to the abyss.
Payton has been on target with his message. It is impossible to miss from the Compete Street sign posted outside the entrance to the locker room to his relentless explaining of plays, drills and concepts. CEO Greg Penner admitted the"constant teaching wasn't something I expected." The players recognize it as routine, saying they believe in Payton.
Safety Justin Simmons began his eighth training camp Wednesday. His resume includes everything — All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors and a monster contract — but a playoff berth. He says Payton’s impact can be summed up as educational, especially in how he uses statistics.
