During his postgame press conference, Wilson took responsibility for the loss.
“It’s very simple,” Wilson told reporters. “I’ve got to be better. I’ve got to play better. . . . Throwing two interceptions can’t happen. I let the team down tonight.”
Wilson went on to say that he looks to turn things around and turn a negative story into a positive story.
Russell Wilson: "I'm looking forward to turning it around because when we do it's going to be a special story. There's no other way to think. I'm looking forward to the adversity of it all and to the negativity of all. We're going to use it as fuel."

Wilson ended the press conference by calling himself a winner and still believes the Broncos can turn things around.
"I know I'm a winner, I know that I'm a battler, I know that I'm gonna keep going, keep believing."
