When the Denver Broncos traded for Russell Wilson, it was an atmosphere and culture-changing move geared toward bringing the team closer to Super Bowl contention.
Whether on-the-field playing or off-the-field training, Wilson’s love for the game is well-documented. Wilson’s attitude made it an easy choice for the Broncos to swing for the fences to trade for the former Seattle Seahawks quarterback.
Wilson recently appeared on the Youth Inc. podcast hosted by former Seahawks teammate Greg Olsen and he waxed poetic about his experiences playing baseball and how he got into playing football growing up. However, Wilson did make a quote about the importance of winning that should have Broncos Nation excited about what’s to come.

“I think what we can expect is a lot of showtime games,” Wilson said. “I think for me what’s the most important thing is it’s about winning, whatever that means to be able to do that. … To go and take over the game and whatever it may be. It’s time for that to happen, game in and game out.”
While the games still have to be played, Wilson’s optimism for this season should keep fans excited for all reasonable possibilities.
