The Denver Broncos have not lived up to expectations since Russell Wilson arrived from Seattle. The quarterback’s record with the team is just 4-11 overall.

As most people predicted, Lovie Smith has been fired from his post as the head coach of the Houston Texans.

There’s been a lot of buzz surrounding Russell Wilson’s Week 5 performance for the Denver Broncos.
