Russell Wilson has looked like a wreck

One of the biggest moves of the entire offseason came when the Broncos dealt away their future for Russell Wilson. On paper, this was a fine move, as Denver had lacked a quarterback and the Seahawks were set to rebuild. The trade has seemed extremely lopsided though, and the NFL is wondering just what is wrong with Wilson.

The Broncos appeared to be one of the better put-together teams in the NFL, but they are off to a miserable start. Wilson is a huge reason as to why, as he has thrown only four touchdowns to three interceptions. Overall, he has looked like a shell of the dynamic quarterback that he had appeared to be while in Seattle.

Can he turn this around and get himself and the Broncos back on track? Of course, he can, but it doesn’t look great for him right now. He has been one of the least efficient quarterbacks in the league so far, and it has completely hindered Denver’s offense. Considering the cost it took to bring him in, the Broncos look like fools right now for completing this deal.
