When Russell Wilson bounces back next season, there will be a lot of people with egg on their faces. And they’ll be acting like they didn’t say what they said. He’s been bad a lot this year. But put me down as someone who thinks he’s great next year. #Broncos

Do I think Drew Lock is a great QB? No. Do I think the Broncos did a terrible job at developing him, hindering him with a bad HC and OC. Yes. Yes I do. I’d much rather have Russell Wilson. Obviously. But I’m rooting for Lock in Seattle.
