On today's episode, Jason opens things up by taking a verbal blowtorch to Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett in the wake of the Denver Broncos' stunning loss to the Seattle Seahawks. What should have been Russell Wilson's triumphant return to Seattle was marred by arguably the worst NFL head coaching debut in recent memory. Hackett's clock management on the final drive was atrocious, and he doubled-down on the bad decision making by inexplicably taking the ball out of Wilson's hands in the final seconds. Look, it's only Week 1 and the season is far from over, but given how tough the Broncos schedule gets, these are the kind of layup games that you can't afford to fumble away. On the flip side, shout out to the maligned Geno Smith for turning in easily his best performance as a pro in the victory. There's almost no way Smith can keep that level of play up and the good vibes in Seattle should fade pretty quickly but it was a night to remember nonetheless. Guess the only question after this debacle on Monday Night is whether or not Hackett becomes the odds-on favorite to become the first NFL head coach to get fired. Mike McCarthy was already on thin ice in Dallas and he just lost Dak Prescott and Matt Rhule has been a dumpster fire in Carolina so Hackett should be safe but you never really know these days.
