Dolphins Score 70 Points In Record Day

Sep 25, 2023 12:16 AM

Dolphins running back De'Von Achane had a few text messages to answer after Sunday's 70-20 win over the Denver Broncos. Actually, it was closer to 100, the rookie clarified.

In the first prominent role of his career, the third-round pick compiled 233 total yards and four touchdowns, including 203 rushing yards on 18 carries.

In one of the most lopsided games in NFL history, the Dolphins put up 726 yards as the league's best offense went berserk in its home opener. The point total marked a new franchise record and the most points any NFL team has scored since Washington scored 72 against the New York Giants in 1966.

Sean Payton Suggests Russell Wilson May Need To Wear Wristband

Sep 19, 2023 9:12 AM

Sean Payton is preparing to make changes to the offense after the Denver Broncos dropped to 0-2 following Sunday's loss to the Washington Commanders.

Payton even suggested that Russell Wilson might soon need to start wearing a wristband for play calls.

"It was more than just one drive," Payton said of Denver's offensive sluggishness.

"There (were) a number of drives where we're late with personnel, getting out of the huddle we took a while. I mean, that's gotta change. We had to burn timeouts in the first half (and) I'm not used to doing (that). We've gotta be better. I've gotta be better. Russ has gotta be sharper with getting the play out, and then we've gotta look at how much we have in. But, you know, if we need to wristband it, we will."

Report: Sean Payton Told Russell Wilson To Focus Less In 'Russell Inc'

Sep 6, 2023 7:24 AM

The Denver Broncos are hoping the addition of Sean Payton as head coach will help last season's big addition, Russell Wilson, get back on track.

Wilson struggled mightily in his first season with the Broncos, going 4-11 while setting career-worsts in completion percentage (60.5%), passing touchdowns (16) and passer rating (84.4).

When he arrived, Payton told Wilson he needed to focus less on "Russell Inc."

"Will you f---ing stop kissing all the babies?" Payton told the quarterback. "You're not running for public office."

According to reports, Wilson didn't operate as your standard starting quarterback during his first season with Denver.

In February, The Athletic reported that Wilson brought in a whole support staff apart from team employees. Wilson also reportedly had a workspace on a floor where players rarely were.
