The Denver Broncos got off to a brutal start to the season, losing five of their first six games to open the year. But they’ve since bounced back, winning five games in a row to put themselves in playoff contention. And quarterback Russell Wilson has one thing to thank for the turnaround: resilience.
During his postgame press conference after the team’s win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Russell Wilson praised the team for how resilient it has been throughout the season.
“We’re resilient,” Wilson said in his postgame press conference. “The best part about us is we’ve been resilient for all of these games. We’ve played some really great teams. Top-echelon teams, obviously, in the AFC. Kansas City, obviously, Buffalo on the road which is a tough environment. Cleveland has been great all year. It’s a great defense and everything else. I think the best thing about us, though, is it’s about us. It’s about us being together.”
The Broncos now have a 6-5 record, are one of the hottest teams in the league right now, and are legitimate playoff contenders.
Wilson and the Broncos will obviously want to keep this momentum going, but it’s clear that they have turned their season around.
