The Denver Broncos recently acquired quarterback Russell Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks via trade. This was a significant move by a franchise that is a part of the toughest division in football, the AFC West. On the other hand, this trade sent the Seahawks into a mini rebuild mode, as they are a part of a very tough division.

The NFC West contains the likes of the Los Angeles Rams, Arizona Cardinals, the San Francisco 49ers, and Wilson’s former team, the Seahawks. Russell Wilson was able to leave that division behind him as he joined a team in the AFC. However, the best team in the NFC West, the Rams, will cross Wilson’s path once again.

NFL announced the early fixture for Christmas Day, and the Los Angeles Rams will be facing the Denver Broncos. Russell Wilson will once again lock horns with his arch-nemesis. Even after changing the division, Wilson can’t escape the Rams, and it will be a fascinating contest.

He’ll be up against the defending champions, and the likes of Matthew Stafford and Aaron Donald will be up for it.

Nathaniel Hackett claims they can win it all with Russell Wilson

The Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett has a firm belief in his new quarterback to take them all the way this season. He said, “What Russ does, compared to other people, I mean he’s spectacular, It’s about him establishing himself as one of the best in the league, which he already is, and just continually doing that over and over.”

Nathaniel Hackett is ready to embrace the tough challenge possessed in the AFC West. He said, “No, it’s exciting, [are] you kidding me? We all get into this game because you want to be playing against the best people all the time.”
