Things have not worked out well for the Denver Broncos this season. Seven games into the season, they have a record of 2-5. What is even more concerning is the fact that the team has managed to score more than 20 points only once in seven games. The Denver Broncos’ defense is one of the best in the league, but the offense led by Russell Wilson has been a thorough let down.

He said, “Russell’s won a lot of games in the NFL. He’s been a 9-time Pro Bowler, he’s won a Super Bowl. Russell knows how to win. The specifics on the contract area, that’s a place where I do rely on George and his expertise. I think he is going to be a great quarterback for us. He hasn’t performed at his expectations. But he’s a fierce competitor. And I think he’ll be a great quarterback for us.”

Penner continued, “You wake up on Monday morning, and you wonder if that really happened yesterday,” he said. “You kind of go through the first day or two of the week in a bit of a fog. This is ownership. And finally when you get to Wednesday or Thursday, you start looking forward to the next game.”
