It has been nothing but doom and gloom within Broncos Country this season, but let’s take a lighter approach for a change.  Pizza is perhaps one of the most universally accepted and liked foods in human history.  Most people can chow down on a tasty piece of the ‘zah, and professional athletes are no different.

Obviously they have to keep their bodies as healthy as possible during the season, so I can’t imagine that Courtland Sutton is going to order himself a greasy pizza during week 14.  However, the one big disagreement that people could have with pizza is what toppings to put on it.

What are the preferred pizza toppings of certain Broncos players?

Predicting favorite pizza toppings of Broncos’ players

Russell Wilson

Naturally we start with the face of the franchise, or so we thought in Russell Wilson.  The Broncos are not exactly riding very well with Wilson under center, but there’s always the future to try and improve.

Russell Wilson is a cheesy guy.  The things that he says and the way he lives his life seems quite fun and fulfilling, but he is very corny, or whatever adjective you’d like to use here.  His personality has rubbed teammates the wrong way, both in Seattle and likely in Denver.

Wilson is his true self which I respect and does not give a rip what other people think.  Due to his unique personality, Wilson’s favorite topping is just a plain cheese pizza.

He’s a cheesy guy, so why not add double or even triple cheese?  The gooey goodness fits Wilson like a glove.

Courtland Sutton

Courtland Sutton is the best receiver on the Broncos and has stayed the healthiest this season.  He’s a true No. 1 receiver even though he has struggled with drops this season.  Sutton seems like a normal guy and doesn’t need to make headlines with what he says during media availabilities.

I don’t think Sutton cares for a ton of toppings on his pizza.  To me, he seems perfectly content with a pepperoni pie.

Quinn Meinerz

Quinn Meinerz is the Broncos’ best offensive lineman in my opinion.  Drafted out of DIII Wisconsin-Whitewater, Meinerz made a name for himself at the Senior Bowl and with that ridiculous video of him doing a workout routine in a forest.

Meinerz strikes me as a super tough guy who drives a lifted truck and is not someone you want to run into in a bar.  He’s strong, plays with a mean streak and hopefully can etch out a nice career with Denver.

There is no way that Meinerz does not get his pizza as a meat lovers.  Pepperoni, sausage, ham, heck, even throw some chicken on top too.

Justin Simmons

The second longest tenured Bronco on the roster is Justin Simmons.  He’s been with Denver every year of the post-Manning era and is the game’s best safety.  He’s remarkably consistent and is an absolute stud off the field too.

Simmons is also the nicest guy you’ll meet I think.  He seems like a simple man with a great personality but also strikes me as someone who tries to solve Rubik’s Cubes in his free time and loves doing puzzles.

I bet Justin Simmons prefers something wild on his pizza like green pepper and anchovies.  Just something straight out of left field that only Justin Simmons would like.
