Broncos' Mike Purcell calls out Russell Wilson during loss to Panthers, results in sideline blowup - CBS Sports

Denver was supposed to compete for the AFC West and make a Super Bowl run after acquiring Russell Wilson, as the franchise had its first franchise quarterback since Peyton Manning -- or so they thought.

Denver is last in the NFL in points per game, not scoring over 23 points in any game this year and only over 20 points twice.

In Sunday's loss to Carolina, the Broncos scored just 10 points -- leading to even more frustration on a team that boasts one of the best defensive units in the league. .

Purcell just reached a boiling point for a team that lost seven of its last eight games. 

He understands where Purcell -- who plays for a defense that allows just 17.6 points per game -- is coming from. 

"He came off after they kicked a field goal, he was pissed off" Wilson said

"He just said, 'We've got, we've got to F'in' go,' and I agree

We've got to come out here and have some grit to us, some mentality to us," Wilson said
