Seattle Seahawks safety Julian Love offered an interesting perspective on Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton's recent play-calling change, explaining how the move has affected Seattle's preparations for Thursday Night Football.
The Seattle Seahawks are facing an unusual preparation challenge ahead of Thursday Night Football after Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton reclaimed offensive play-calling duties from coordinator Davis Webb. Seahawks safety Julian Love stated that the sudden coaching change forces Seattle to study archival game tape from Payton's previous seasons rather than relying on recent 2026 footage, especially with limited preparation time on a short week.
Payton resumed play-calling ahead of Denver's 23-17 win against the Los Angeles Chargers on October 11, which improved the Broncos to 3-2. Seattle enters the contest following a 32-29 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, leaving the defense tasked with fixing its own third-down and red-zone issues while preparing for quarterback Bo Nix, receivers Courtland Sutton and Jaylen Waddle, and running back J.K. Dobbins.
