The Denver Broncos came into their week 16 game against the New England Patriots on the back of a crushing defeat against the Detroit Lions in week 15. They were expected to beat the New England Patriots on Sunday. However, the Patriots delivered a surprise result and handed the Broncos their second loss in a row.

The Broncos lost the game 26-23, however, their QB Russell Wilson had a good game against the Patriots. He finished with 238 yards and 2 touchdowns while completing 25 of his 37 pass attempts. He has had a much improved season from last year. However, the Broncos will have to make a decision about Wilson since he is guaranteed $37 million in March 2024, if the Broncos decide to bring him back. Wilson though, is only thinking about his next opponent.

I haven't done the math, I'm feeling this loss right now. We probably should have won this game, probably the best thing we can do is get up [Monday], be with our families and get back to work.
