Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder, especially when it comes to winning close games in the NFL. For many, the Denver Broncos' 9-game winning streak has been unimpressive because they've been "escaping" with wins. For others, the team is showing incredible mental fortitude, clutch factor, and finding a way to win.
After the game, Broncos head coach Sean Payton sent a clear message when it comes to the idea of his team "escaping" its Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders with a win.
He doesn't view it as an escape at all.
