It’s a new era in Denver, but some of the same issues continue to rear their head two weeks into Sean Payton’s tenure.<\/p>\n

The drive before the Hail Mary\/failed two-point try drama, Russell Wilson and the offense struggled in the red zone, with the Broncos quarterback taking two sacks to force a chip-shot field goal. After the Broncos saw a 21-3 lead evaporate to ultimately lose 35-33, starting the season 0-2, Payton cited “slow” communication multiple times meeting with the press.<\/p>\n

“It was more than just one drive,” Payton said when asked about the communication issues on the second-to-last drive. “There were a number of drives where we were late with personnel, getting out of the huddle we took a while. That has to change. We had to burn timeouts in the first half, and I’m not used to doing [that]. We have to be better. I have to be better. Russ has to be sharper with getting the play out, and then we have to look at how much we have in. If we need to wristband it, we will.”<\/p>\n
