He won’t succeed in NOLA unfortunately, even in that weak division. Maybe they make the playoffs several years because the NFC south is terrible, but then what? They immediately play the Bengals or ravens? The jags or Texans? The bills or Miami? Whoever they’d play they’d just get blown out in the first round
It wont happen but it would be hilarious if he moved to NOLA and had a renaissance season. Just as a personal fuck you to Sean Payton. The memes would be legendary
I think the Watson trade is worse. Grabbing a guy with insane baggage and a year off only for him to be rusty and worse than Baker. Russ was an elite QB and no one could have really seen him fall off that much. Still horrible trade and wasted money by extending him before he played there.

That memo from Russell is funny. He stole Scott Hall’s line. Only it was changed from Bad times don’t last but bad guys do. Someone on his team is a wrestling fan
It’s like overpaying for a car and not liking it. But instead of keeping it and at least being able to drive it you give it away while still having to pay for it. At least keep the car until you’re able to get another.
After this debacle, I don't believe free agents will want to go to Denver. Who wants to get a contract from the Broncos, if they change their minds later on and want that player out? Poor messaging Broncos. I get that all teams cut players and players want money mid contract BUT Russell Wilson didn't even play one down under his extension. Threatening to bench players because leadership doesn't like the contract they signed is just poor form.
Russell is such a fraud in the media. His statement to the community is a joke, acting like he spent half a career there while it's only been two seasons and don't buy the "lifelong relationships" bit at all. they are as sick of him as his coaches are, frankly. if he would have simply owned up to the denver fan base and took responsibility for not playing up to his contract he at least would have left denver with some dignity. the man is unwilling to acknowledge his faults and shortcomings and somehow still comes out the winner in all this. insanity.
A lot of the players on the team seem to appreciate his post, a lot of them reposted it on X. Broncos fans actually feel frustrated because the $ and draft picks. Sean Payton better be right about whoever he gets at QB to replace Russ, otherwise he looks really bad and risks being fired. I think our GM is probably fired after next season, especially if the Broncos are a sub .500 team. Russ almost took us to the Playoffs last year, does anyone else realize that? If the Broncos beat Washington, the Patriots, and the Raiders that would have gotten us into the playoffs.
@@user-KR386 yeah true, that's why i didn't call out the players cuz i knew he eventually won over the locker room there. And agreed, payton is on thin ice there for sure and also that GM, you gotta feel like he's on thin ice too.
It’s crazy that Denver is blaming Wilson when he had better stats minus yards than the SB Champ QB PM. Peyton must hate Wilson and just doesn’t want him because this doesn’t make sense at all this season, made more sense last season. They had a veteran SB winning QB for a solid contract which this season he played better so this doesn’t make sense at all……
Steelers are the best fit. Stable, long term head coach who's system closely resembles what Wilson had in Seattle. A run first ball control offense along with a great defense. Last season the Steelers QB's combined for a whopping 9 TD passes and STILL MADE THE PLAYOFFS.!!!! Russ had 26 in Denver. If the Steelers could get that they could probably win the Super Bowl.
Totally, I had a strong feeling it was going to be a horrible decision, all while so many "analysts" were sucking him off, saying he was this great QB. Dude was on the bench, ha, not even, for what, like 2 seasons. The guy blew his shot. The browns are in deep trouble if chubb can't get back to peak form.
Awesome video!! This whole situation is extremely fascinating. It’s crazy seeing how perception can change so quickly in the NFL. A few years ago, Russell Wilson was widely considered to be one of the QBs in the top five. Now he’s about as irrelevant as the “Dangerwich” But I still think he can be a fantastic option for a team with the right pieces just like you explained. The parody in the NFL is leaps and bounds above the other major sports in the US. The NFL still garners massive attention even when it’s in the off-season!!! 😂
What's wild, that RG3-Redskins trade was gold, the injuries he suffered were team/ownership responsibility. Snyder just likes to sign big names w no help on the line, first injury. 2nd Fedex/Commanders field is a shit hole and that 2nd knee injury on that end of the field has claimed like 5 players careers with injuries in the same 15 yard patch. RG3 didn't deserve that result...
Russ should go to LV to help AP retain his job; in case AP falls short with his plans to reunite with/draft Jayden Daniels... BTW: I hope AP doesn't play poker out here in Vegas...
It’s not much of a conversation, unless Wilson is playing like Patrick Mahomes his contract is an outright robbery and kills the broncos ability to build a competitive team in any way. People saying things like “well Russ wasn’t even playing that bad” or “you act like you’d turn down that money.” Both of those arguments are correct, it doesn’t change the fact that the broncos HAVE to get him out of their door as soon as possible. A quarter of a billion dollars for great value Tua is a war crime
Love the suit Bro! Russell isn't the same Quarter Back he was sometimes you have to count your losses and move on. The NFL seems to be better than anyone else when it comes to doing this.
Unless the Patriots have some major concern about Daniels or Maye, I wouldn't count on them trading down. The Krafts want to be back in contention, and they also want to prove to the fans that they aren't as cheap as we think they are
I don’t believe in Sean Payton for Denver and the front office was also just as incompetent as a whole. You can’t expect a Herculean effort from the QB position and not build around them! You got to build around the position first and foremost.
I couldn’t agree with you more. Listen I been a ride or die Broncos fan for years and I don’t like Sean as a coach or the way he handled this situation and as for the front office and organization, what they tried to pull is straight disrespectful and wrong and makes me not even wanna be a fan anymore.
That organization has absolutely no clue on what they’re doing. You can’t convince me otherwise. It’s been nearly a decade since Peyton retired, and they STILL haven’t figured out their qb situation. Genuinely feel bad for broncos fans. To have owners who are THAT clueless
That’s not what Sean was saying. The reporter said “it seems Russ is taking the blame” Sean’ response was basically a side step to directly responding, but basically explaining why Russ is taking the blame. Sean was saying that he can’t replace the whole offense to benefit Russ. He can’t just get new receivers and a new o line, especially ata his price tag. And that statement was for all the “analysts” people like Mike keeps regurgitating with “Russ just needs the right pieces around him. This was a team who was a qb and a coach away. The new coach is saying that he can’t now just revamp the team to make Russ better. Russ was signed to make this team better and take it to the next level, that’s why they paid him so much. They didn’t sign Russ thinking they’d instantly need a new o line and new receivers and THATS why Russ getting the blame. Tho he wasn’t a “bad” qb, he didn’t live up to the contract. It was a major drop off and I’f they can somehow get a solid ready now qb in the draft, they’ll be better in the long run, a year or 2 from now
I think the Broncos are saying they made a mistake so bad that they have to take a year off from even trying to be competitive. Take the huge penalty and try to move and compete in 2-3 years. Hopefully.
Because of this the next CBA will have a cap percentage wise on guarantees as the owners will want to push for it. They will use this example as to why it's important! Ultimately, the players will want something in return if they agree to it!
I don't like Sean Payton, but he didn't make it sound like it was Russell Wilson's play. He just said the whole offense sucked and it was easier to get rid of Wilson. On the other hand, a new O-line may be cheaper!
Payton is going to be an absolute disaster in Denver. Reid still in the west and Harbaugh should have the Chargers competitive in a couple of seasons. Raiders might be mediocre but I do like Pierce. Denver KILLED their draft for years with these past two trades.
Best scenario, bears trade fields to the falcons for a second, trade back from 1 to 3 and get the patriots second too, draft mhj and Dallas turner in the first, Xavier from South Carolina or Coleman in the second and a safety and o lineman, and lastly sign Russell Wilson, instant Super Bowl contenders
Not A Russell Wilson fan, nor a Denver Bronco fan, but I'll be rooting for him to find a new team and have an MVP year. Don't think that all will happen, but I'll be rootin.
Looking back at the details of this trade, I think the Broncos made it worse for themselves by not just overpaying the Seahawks, but by also signing Wilson to that ludicrous contract before playing a single snap. Remember, when Wilson was traded to the Broncos, he was still playing under the $140M contract the Seahawks paid him back in 2019. The Broncos literally had 1-2 years to assess if Wilson was the right fit for them before deciding if they want to pay him. Instead, before Wilson even played a snap, the Broncos inked him to that ridiculous 5 years, $242.5M contract (probably out of desperation, since the Broncos has their own QB carousel problem) that kicks in TWO YEARS LATER. Yes, you read that right: Wilson's new deal takes effect this coming season, and the Broncos are already suffering major buyer's remorse. Honestly, this point is what stings the most for Broncos fans, cause with so much dead cap money in their books, they inevitably will have to move out core pieces just to get under the cap, which will affect their team cohesion for years to come. Losing the chance to draft Charles Cross, Devon Witherspoon and Boye Mafe was already bad enough, but not having the cap space to sign replacement pieces is the equivalent of getting a low blow after being knocked down hard.
The trade was not good, but the extension was a fireable offense. Then again, Paton would not have traded that much if he did not view Russ as a long term option. I still think the extension was worse than the trade itself.
@@snowman9642You are clearly not the brightest if you think that Paying a qb $40million dollars to NOT play for you is smart. They are literally paying him to play for another team, after giving up 5 picks for him, and deciding to start Jarrett Stidham 😂 As the video Implies, stupid move. Use your head kid.
Listen, as a Hawks fan I wasn't liking Russell in the way he was handling himself near the end of his stint in Seattle. But the way Denver did this was extremely stupid all the way around. You try to strongarm him out of money in a contract that you gave him while they were still in a good position to make the playoffs, when he has almost never missed playing time his entire career. Its dirty as hell and Russell didn't deserve that. Maybe now a team will get him really cheap and appreciate him a lot better than Denver did. They deserve their impending failure. Feel bad that Broncos fans have to be the ones to suffer the most from it considering now they have $84 million in dead cap. This is probably the worst way I've ever seen an organization handle a player considering how much they gave up for him.
Now, if Jerry and Stephen Jones were smart, they would sign Russell Wilson and let Dak stay as a backup this year and then let Dak test free agency next season
Patriots Raiders Vikings Falcons Saints Redskins Titans Steelers Are the teams where he would definitely be an upgrade over their current starter. But I see Patriots & Redskins drafting a QB. I like him going to either Vegas or Tenn
Your logic is wrong. Doesn't matter how much money he can save. Russell Wilson is playing horrible. You can't go to Super Bowl with him playing that bad! He said he won from Kansas City Chiefs, but the Chiefs went to playoffs and he didn't. Wilson is a problem not an answer. If you want to win, you need a good QB. Not save money getting a bad QB.
Making the assumption that cutting ol' Russ there is somehow an automatic benefit for any other team is idiotic. Ol' Russ there came across to me as a cringe machine the minute he showed up in Denver, and the whole "I have my own staff" thing just tells me that there is no real getting him on the same page as the rest of the team. This was like Chernobyl: A disaster waiting to go off.
The dishonesty, the lack of transparency, and the levels of nepotism from the Denver Broncos front office just surprises me, they completely mishandled this entire situation. I can’t believe they’re doing this to Russell Wilson, they shouldn’t have let go of Wilson’s own trainer or telling him to change his injury clause on his contract, they also shouldn’t have threatened to bench him if he dose’nt changed it. All of this is just wrong
As a Denver Broncos fan and resident I’m so sick and tired of watching my team rebuild and rebuild and rebuild only so the can start another rebuild yay
As a broncos fan this made me mad i liked russ the team as a whole needs work and the broncos say oh were looking for the future but your still paying russ contract like who replacing russ thats going to be an upgrade like your paying for him why not just go for round 3 im a life long broncos fan and im getting sick of these dumb decisons. At the end of the day its bc sean didnt like russ and was being petty cant wait to win zero games this season
The Only Mistake was that ridiculous '5 Year Contract Extension'. Wilson simply did not mesh with the Broncos. Now he 'might' mesh with some other team, but there's no guarantee. Personally I think Wilson over-rated and has an enormous ego, so he's unlikely to fit with Any Team. Now I could be Wrong about the last part, time will tell. But I'd give you 100:1 odds that he goes to some team, like the Raiders, and his performance is the same as it was for the Broncos. Which is to say he'll make some good plays but he won't win games consistently.
I dont think the Bronco need all new recievers or a completely different OL. Sad to see players getting scapegoated when Nathaniel the Hack or Matt Patricia is your offensive coordinator in the case of Mac Jones. Jacoby Brissett or a bridge QB isnt going to be better than Wilson. No chance to get passed Mahomes, Payton or not
I usually agree with your takes but I can't on this one. I know it's alot of money to eat but it's better to move on now then wait. Because you're not winning a superbowl with russ on that contract. Maybe somebody else can when he takes a vet minimum but you can't with the amount they paid. Denver screwed up. But better for them to rip the band aid off now
I’m not sure about this but I think what’s getting lost In bashing Denver for the extension is I think Russ had a no trade clause. He wasn’t going to a team that didn’t offer an extension. Again, I’m not 100% sure about the no trade clause.
Not even close. The most idiotic trade was the panthers giving the bears 2 first and 2 second round picks plus their best receiver they have had in many years for a rookie who was in last place in passing rating this past year and will most likely not get much better unfortunately.

Agreed
Don't forget Hershel Walker. That trade changed the fortunes of the two teams involved and as a Vikings fan, it still stings.

Instead, before Wilson even played a snap, the Broncos inked him to that ridiculous 5 years, $242.5M contract (probably out of desperation, since the Broncos has their own QB carousel problem) that kicks in TWO YEARS LATER. Yes, you read that right: Wilson's new deal takes effect this coming season, and the Broncos are already suffering major buyer's remorse.
Honestly, this point is what stings the most for Broncos fans, cause with so much dead cap money in their books, they inevitably will have to move out core pieces just to get under the cap, which will affect their team cohesion for years to come. Losing the chance to draft Charles Cross, Devon Witherspoon and Boye Mafe was already bad enough, but not having the cap space to sign replacement pieces is the equivalent of getting a low blow after being knocked down hard.
The trade was not good, but the extension was a fireable offense. Then again, Paton would not have traded that much if he did not view Russ as a long term option. I still think the extension was worse than the trade itself.
Pittsburgh is the best fit for Wilson. I don’t think the Steelers need to shop but that would be a good move😊
And maybe, the Jones' are maneuvering to sign Wilson, since they are not so quick to extend Dak...
Does Sean Payton have CTE? Cause he’s killing his legacy…
Dumb comment, Broncos were garbage last year. Payton is saving the broncos. Very dumb and unnecessary extension for Wilson.
Worse than that.
DNVR fans don't deserve that.
@@snowman9642You are clearly not the brightest if you think that Paying a qb $40million dollars to NOT play for you is smart. They are literally paying him to play for another team, after giving up 5 picks for him, and deciding to start Jarrett Stidham 😂
As the video Implies, stupid move.
Use your head kid.
@@78townand that trade had nothing to do with the extension they gave him.
Listen, as a Hawks fan I wasn't liking Russell in the way he was handling himself near the end of his stint in Seattle. But the way Denver did this was extremely stupid all the way around. You try to strongarm him out of money in a contract that you gave him while they were still in a good position to make the playoffs, when he has almost never missed playing time his entire career. Its dirty as hell and Russell didn't deserve that. Maybe now a team will get him really cheap and appreciate him a lot better than Denver did. They deserve their impending failure. Feel bad that Broncos fans have to be the ones to suffer the most from it considering now they have $84 million in dead cap. This is probably the worst way I've ever seen an organization handle a player considering how much they gave up for him.
Now, if Jerry and Stephen Jones were smart, they would sign Russell Wilson and let Dak stay as a backup this year and then let Dak test free agency next season
Patriots
Raiders
Vikings
Falcons
Saints
Redskins
Titans
Steelers
Are the teams where he would definitely be an upgrade over their current starter.
But I see Patriots & Redskins drafting a QB.
I like him going to either Vegas or Tenn
Your logic is wrong. Doesn't matter how much money he can save. Russell Wilson is playing horrible. You can't go to Super Bowl with him playing that bad! He said he won from Kansas City Chiefs, but the Chiefs went to playoffs and he didn't. Wilson is a problem not an answer. If you want to win, you need a good QB. Not save money getting a bad QB.
To me there’s only 2 Teams that have a real chance of signing Russell Wilson Tampa Bay Buccaneers or Atlanta Falcons
Making the assumption that cutting ol' Russ there is somehow an automatic benefit for any other team is idiotic. Ol' Russ there came across to me as a cringe machine the minute he showed up in Denver, and the whole "I have my own staff" thing just tells me that there is no real getting him on the same page as the rest of the team. This was like Chernobyl: A disaster waiting to go off.
The dishonesty, the lack of transparency, and the levels of nepotism from the Denver Broncos front office just surprises me, they completely mishandled this entire situation. I can’t believe they’re doing this to Russell Wilson, they shouldn’t have let go of Wilson’s own trainer or telling him to change his injury clause on his contract, they also shouldn’t have threatened to bench him if he dose’nt changed it. All of this is just wrong
Yup ... ugly, nasty, unprofessional, completely unacceptable. Dark. DNVR fans don't deserve this horror.
Denver ready to tank next year or two.. use draft to build young talented core, and then be in position to draft the next Manning in a couple years
As a Denver Broncos fan and resident I’m so sick and tired of watching my team rebuild and rebuild and rebuild only so the can start another rebuild yay
Looks like the Patriots are taking Drake Maye. And Cousins is expected to go to ATL.
Can’t wait to see what PERNA has to say about this.
Vikings’ Country: Let’s Skol!?
😝😜😁lololol!
As a broncos fan this made me mad i liked russ the team as a whole needs work and the broncos say oh were looking for the future but your still paying russ contract like who replacing russ thats going to be an upgrade like your paying for him why not just go for round 3 im a life long broncos fan and im getting sick of these dumb decisons. At the end of the day its bc sean didnt like russ and was being petty cant wait to win zero games this season
RG3 was hall of fame material if the redskins management didnt mismanage his career
As a Chiefs fan, I'm glad Russ is out of Denver.. he got downgraded with them... Time to upgrade.
The Only Mistake was that ridiculous '5 Year Contract Extension'. Wilson simply did not mesh with the Broncos. Now he 'might' mesh with some other team, but there's no guarantee. Personally I think Wilson over-rated and has an enormous ego, so he's unlikely to fit with Any Team. Now I could be Wrong about the last part, time will tell. But I'd give you 100:1 odds that he goes to some team, like the Raiders, and his performance is the same as it was for the Broncos. Which is to say he'll make some good plays but he won't win games consistently.
Wilson exit statement is pure cheese.
I dont think the Bronco need all new recievers or a completely different OL. Sad to see players getting scapegoated when Nathaniel the Hack or Matt Patricia is your offensive coordinator in the case of Mac Jones. Jacoby Brissett or a bridge QB isnt going to be better than Wilson. No chance to get passed Mahomes, Payton or not
I usually agree with your takes but I can't on this one. I know it's alot of money to eat but it's better to move on now then wait. Because you're not winning a superbowl with russ on that contract. Maybe somebody else can when he takes a vet minimum but you can't with the amount they paid. Denver screwed up. But better for them to rip the band aid off now
It doesn't matter what Denver does they almost always screw it up. Not Russel's Fault at all.
I want to see wilson go back to seattle for veteran minimum just for the laughs
I disagree with you about the Raiders situation. They only have one qb. They need to get a couple more. That’s their big need
I hope the steelers picking him up
I’m not sure about this but I think what’s getting lost In bashing Denver for the extension is I think Russ had a no trade clause. He wasn’t going to a team that didn’t offer an extension. Again, I’m not 100% sure about the no trade clause.
Mike in the suit looking good🤝🏾 amazing color
Not even close. The most idiotic trade was the panthers giving the bears 2 first and 2 second round picks plus their best receiver they have had in many years for a rookie who was in last place in passing rating this past year and will most likely not get much better unfortunately.
