vike daddy Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Sean Payton had cataract surgery on his left eye last Thursday and will have cataract surgery on his right eye Wednesday, Mike Klis of 9News reports. “First day ever wearing sunglasses coaching,’’ Payton, 60, told Klis. “Waiting for the Bill Parcells phone call [to call him a wimp].” Not wearing sunglasses explains the cataracts. Payton revealed at his season-ending news conference that he was going to get his eyes fixed in the offseason after calling the wrong play on his play sheet once during the 2023 season. “That was embarrassing,” Payton said on Jan. 9. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/sean-payton-has-cataracts-removed-allowing-him-to-see-his-play-sheet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
broncos_fan _from _uk Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I’m glad he got them fixed. Will never understand the machismo that says eye pro is for “wimps” but then again my entire adult life has been in the military where the team guys wear the most outrageous sun glasses 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I frequently catch grief from my buddies (and wife) for not wearing sunglasses while I golf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 ESPN recently highlighted the best NFL, college and high school football players at every age between 14 and 40 years old. They tabbed Justin Jefferson, who will celebrate his 25th birthday on Sunday, as the league's best 24-year-old. ESPN's runner-up in the 24-year-old category was Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II. https://www.vikings.com/news/justin-jefferson-brandon-powell-mekhi-blackmon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler06 Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 (edited) Just saw the Broncos have signed former USFL standout DE/Edge Dondrea Tillman, a 6-3, 270lb 26yo. He's won 3 rings in the USFL, hopefully he brings THAT type of attitude with him to this defense. Edited June 20 by Cutler06 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's probably hungry to prove himself. Let him fight for a spot at the back end of the pass rush rotation. Love the idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been pounding the table for awhile for Shaw to be the head coach. It almost seemed inevitable that Shaw would be with the Broncos in some capacity. Andrew Luck (2012, No. 1), Andrus Peat (2015, No. 13), Joshua Garnett (2016, No. 28), Solomon Thomas (2017, No. 3), Christian McCaffrey (2017, No. 😎 and David DeCastro (2021, No. 24) all played under Shaw before being selected in the first round.

I’ve heard home speak a few times about what he looks for in terms of culture building. His thoughts align with mine therefore I like him lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
