*among players with at least 100 pass attempts

Russell Wilson has quietly been pretty dang good this season, and Sean Payton has turned this organization around despite inheriting an abysmal team and getting off to a rough first few games.

Nathaniel Hackett might feel like the head-to-head was some vindication, but let's not forget that the Jets defense scored 9 points that game. Sean Payton may be a jerk for saying what he said about Hackett, but he wasn't wrong.

I've honestly been more impressed with the defensive metamorphosis since the laugher against Miami. Sure, Russell has been improved in this offensive system, but I attribute that to Payton turning him into a check down king. Maybe that's all he needs to be but I don't adhere to the narrative of a resurgent Russ when he barely throws for 200 yards, if that, per game.

If anything, he has been markedly more disciplined and prolific in the red zone, which is why the Broncos have started winning games.
