Payton: Broncos preseason performance 'not good enough'

Coach Sean Payton criticized the Broncos' 33-13 preseason loss to the Packers, saying the performance 'wasn't good enough' despite solid play from quarterback Bo Nix.

Sean Payton expressed disappointment with the Broncos' performance in their preseason home opener against the Packers. "Obviously that wasn't good enough," the coach told reporters, citing issues with penalties, kickoff returns, and rushing numbers that contributed to the 33-13 defeat.

While Payton praised Bo Nix's "solid" performance in his first game action since breaking an ankle, noting the quarterback led a touchdown drive, he criticized the offensive output for having "too many minus plays" and penalties. The team must make corrections before the regular season begins. sports24.club
