With head coach, Nathaniel Hackett, Denver was looking to take the season by storm. Yet, the highly anticipated A-team that was expected, is yet to make an appearance this season.

Mike Robinson dishes on Russell Wilson

Russell Wilson is known for his regular cringe-worthy posts and tweets on the internet. With his rather overly optimistic outlook on life and the game, many fans are frustrated by the quarterback.

Wilson’s former Seahawks teammate Mike Robinson gave his thoughts on the quarterback’s current predicament. When asked about Russell’s authenticity on The Herd, a sports talk show, Robinson said, “Russell has been a positive person since the moment I met him when he walked into the locker room with the Seattle Seahawks. But my whole thing and the whole point I was trying to make on total access with that quote was, you can’t be so positive that you’re ignorant to reality and that’s basically what I was talking about.”

Speaking of how the team would perhaps react to the gaps in offensive strategy at the Broncos, Robinson added, “If I’m a guy in that locker room, I’m looking at that entire situation and I’m like- what’s different than when Drew Lock was here. There is no difference. Russell got his money, Nathaniel Hackett got his money but we’re still losing.”
