One of the few times 'Are they stupid?' receives a 'Yes'.

I've honestly been more impressed with the defensive metamorphosis since the laugher against Miami. Sure, Russell has been improved in this offensive system, but I attribute that to Payton turning him into a check down king. Maybe that's all he needs to be but I don't adhere to the narrative of a resurgent Russ when he barely throws for 200 yards, if that, per game.
If anything, he has been markedly more disciplined and prolific in the red zone, which is why the Broncos have started winning games.
Because all time greats are excellent at obscuring flaws within a system. Bill is one of the best we've ever seen at coaching defenses so the DC cannot be gauged objectively and Brady similarly cloaked offensive ineptitude for years.
Not all that surprising that an organization that was effectively a two person brain trust has failed to bear successful fruit.
He hasn't even played double digit games yet. Calm down.
Admittedly his outlook currently doesn't look promising but let's at least pretend to be patient.
