Grading The Week: If Vic Fangio could embarrass Patrick Mahomes on NFL’s big stage, then Broncos, Sean Payton can too

Oh, we wobbled, sure. But we never lost faith, Uncle Vic. The film guys up in the Grading The Week cubicles knew your day would come against Patrick Mahomes. We knew it was only a matter of time.

Granted, we didn’t think it could come three years and two franchises after the Broncos kicked you to the curb. But hey.

A toast to Vic Fangio, for finally landing that Super Bowl ring at age 66. For bringing a parade back to his home state. But mostly for giving Broncos Country hope. For dragging Mahomes, the Tom Brady of his generation, down from the NFL’s Mount Olympus and into his midnight green wood-chipper.
