Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald revealed in his recent interview with Graham Bensinger that Sean Payton of the Denver Broncos almost publicly accused the team of cheating in the 2024 season.

The Seattle Seahawks are only on 10 am PT twice this season, starting with today's game against the Washington Commanders. That gives us the rest of the afternoon and evening to chat about the late game slate, plus Sunday Night Football, which is of great interest to Seahawks fans.

Macdonald said Wednesday he has apologized to Payton. But the interesting thing about the whole deal is that the apology came for the fact the exchange between the teams and coaches went public. And it got out because the Seahawks' coach shared the saga on a podcast without expecting it to get out.

This week, we focus on quarterbacks and how confident each team's fanbase is in its situation. The Raiders, for example, are flying high.

If there was a silver lining, it's the fact the Rams also lost in Week 3.

Last season almost ended with the Denver Broncos facing the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl, and if that game would have happened, there likely would have been some serious drama, because it seems the two head coaches don't like each other very much.

I’m responsible for what I say, really no matter the circumstance,” Macdonald said, adding that Payton took his apology well.

The intriguing matchup not only pits a defending AFC finalist against the reigning Super Bowl champions, but also a battle of two of the more highly regarded head coaches in the league with Sean Payton and Mike Macdonald.

I was like, ‘We didn’t cheat.’ He thought it was a Michigan thing, where we had a plant and the whole thing. We had to counter with him and say, like, if you come out with this, we’re going to sue you because it’s not true.

The Broncos pulled off a wild 30-26 comeback win over the L.A. Rams on Sunday evening. Here are Denver’s studs and duds from the victory.
