Payton shuts down prying questions about offsides call

After falling 17-42 to the Detroit Lions on Saturday night, the Denver Broncos’ playoff chances a bit bleaker, and it didn’t just come down to a single call; the Lions genuinely outplayed them for 60 minutes.

That said, there was a penalty that stirred some criticism, perhaps more than ever because of the aftermath from that offensive offsides called during last week’s Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs matchup.

The Broncos didn’t end up on the scoreboard until Q3 saw Wilson throwing in the end zone to Lil’ Jordan Humphrey.
