N/S Payton critiques old Broncos staff, says Jets are setting themselves up for a hard fall, etc.
This is a strategic hit piece. He's essentially putting all the blame on Hackett while taking it off of Wilson. He's likely trying to get Wilson's confidence up to what he needs it to be. There were rumblings about teammates not being okay with Wilson's special privileges last season and Payton is trying to place the blame off of Wilson and placing it everywhere else.
Will it work? Who knows but Payton doesn't get this careless especially after all he's been through. This was definitely planned on his part.
