While the Seattle Seahawks will no longer receive draft picks from the Denver Broncos, the foundation of a potential perennial contender can be built around players selected from the king’s ransom of draft picks acquired for Russell Wilson. Today we will discuss about Russell Wilson: Fumble| Interception super bowl.

Fumble
Broncos coach Sean Payton played down a sideline conversation with Russell Wilson on Monday after the quarterback committed a game-sealing fumble against the New York Jets on Sunday afternoon.
Trailing 24–21, but only 20 yards from field goal range in the final minute of the game, Wilson tried to escape the pocket to his left as Quincy Williams charged at him as a free blitzer.
However, instead of Wilson running, Williams knocked the ball out of his hands and Bryce Hall scooped it up and returned it for a touchdown.
As Wilson came off the field, Payton removed his headset and gestured toward the veteran quarterback with his hands.
“I don’t think I was that animated,” Payton said Monday. “Every exchange or discussion I had with Russ (is discussed). I just wanted to make sure he knew the linebacker was a free rusher, so it wasn’t that big of an exchange or big deal. Not as much as I think some might have thought.”
Payton had previously stated that the Broncos had a five-man safety and so there was no accounting for weak-side linebacker Williams. Therefore, if he blitzed, Wilson must have a hot receiver to throw to immediately.
Interception super bowl
You don’t need to understand anything beyond the fundamentals of football to come to the realization that the Seattle Seahawks played brilliantly on their final offensive play of Super Bowl XLIX.
My mother and grandmother, neither of whom watched the game, both knew full well that the Seahawks had made a mistake. I’m pretty sure the dog had a basic idea, too.
But introduce some of the five W’s and dig a little deeper, and it all becomes a little more complicated.
We know when, where and what. On Sunday night, in the final minutes of the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl in Arizona, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson threw a seemingly inexplicable interception from the New England Patriots 1-yard line, leaving his team trailing by four points. And his team’s fate was sealed.
But how about why and who? Hindsight made it especially easy to criticize Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell and head coach Pete Carroll for play calls, Wilson for poor judgment and/or throws and wide receiver Ricardo Lockette for the routes he ran And the reality is that in a game like this, it is hardly possible to put all the blame on one man.
