Can the gospel according to Russ save the Broncos from years of NFL suffering?
“I came here to win,” Russell Wison is fond of saying, which are words uttered by Denver’s football savior almost as often as he proclaims: “It’s a blessing.”
Long before breaking the huddle during a game that counts in the NFL standings, Wilson has firmly established one thing: He is the most relentlessly upbeat quarterback to wear a Denver uniform since Tim Tebow.
The major difference? Wilson can actually throw the football.
Russ can cook. Russ can preach. But can Russ beat the Kansas City Chiefs?
