The Denver Broncos have some odds against them this season.
They currently sit in a division with Patrick Mahomes and the Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs, as well as Jim Harbaugh, Justin Herbert, and the Los Angeles Chargers.
In the AFC as a whole, teams like the Baltimore Ravens, Houston Texans, New York Jets, Cincinnati Bengals, and others could be real playoff threats too.
So, this Broncos team might be slated to have a tough 2024 season ahead of them.
However, Broncos head coach Sean Payton does not care about the low opinions of his team that are coming from outside of the building.
“I don’t have time to spend time on that…None of that means anything…We’ll get ready to play. We expect to compete. We expect to win,” Payton recently said in front of the Denver media.

Does he give it any attention?
Nope.

This is the mentality that all coaches need to have if they want to be successful in the NFL.
Payton is a Super Bowl-winning head coach who has almost 170 total wins in the NFL (including playoffs).
He has coached Hall of Fame players and a lot of great teams over his near-20 years in the NFL as a head coach.
What people write about his team, from his point of view, does not matter because it is outside of the building.
All he is focused on is making sure the Denver Broncos are better than they were a year ago.
Time will tell to see if the team can surprise the folks outside of the building and possibly compete for the playoffs, which is a place they have not been since they won the Super Bowl with Peyton Manning in 2015.
