Broncos vs. Bears will be box-office television next week! 
Also the SNF game, Chiefs vs. Jets? Mahomes vs. "Mormon Mahomes"? Yikes lol.
Broncos-Bears could be fun in an NFL bloopers sort of way.
As a Broncos fan, I’m really glad we sent out a first round pick for Sean Payton. Clearly we just needed better coaching.
That Russ contract too.
Yikes....
Unlike the NBA, I know nothing about how the NFL salary cap works, so I’m just going to assume they can cut him this spring and take a huge cap hit next year and then move on, tanking the season as 30% or whatever of their cap is tied up in dead weight. What a disappointment from 18 months ago — I’d trade him for Mac Jones in a millisecond.
It honestly wouldn't be as bad as I expected. Here's a couple of ways it could possibly go:
Cutting him before June 1st next year: $85 million in 2024 dead cap (~38% of this year's cap)
Cutting him after June 1st: $35.4 million in 2024 dead cap (~16%), $49.6 million in 2025 dead cap (~22%)
The first option might be difficult if there's a lot of other dead cap on the Bronco's cap, but the second one is totally reasonable (it would cost just as much as keeping him)
