The Denver Broncos have gotten out to slow starts in September under Sean Payton, and he may have just revealed why. In his first three seasons, the Broncos have gone 0-3, 1-2, and 1-2 in their first three games with Sean Payton at the helm.
And beyond that, Payton is only 30-30 across his head coaching career in the month of September. His teams tend to get out to slow starts for some reason, but history tells us that October and November are going to be successful.
Payton's teams win nearly 70% of their games in October and November, so the Broncos are on the cusp of breaking out.
