Old habits die hard. For the entirety of his career, Russell Wilson has been accustomed to saying Go Hawks so it’s not going to be deleted from his brain for quite some time.
The first-year Broncos quarterback was unable to lead Denver to a victory in his return to Seattle’s Lumen Field on Monday. His new team ultimately fell 17-16 to Pete Carroll, Geno Smith and company.
Following the game, Wilson answered questions, but as he got ready to sign off for the night, he almost used the old catchphrase of “Go Hawks.”
He quickly caught himself and said “Go Broncos, let’s ride” quip.
In his first game, Wilson completed 29 of 42 passes for 340 yards and a 67-yard touchdown to Jerry Jeudy. However, the team had 3 different possessions in the red zone that led to 2 fumbles and a field goal.
That was the sole reason the team lost the game. Correct the mistakes and the rest of the season should be fine.
