As a Seattle fan, I was here for it. I recognized RW's greed a while back. Still think RW Definitely has great points, But dude is Greedy beyond what is good for him or his team
Who besides Jerry Jeudy’s lazy, ball-droppin’ a$$ was even running over the middle, that star TE Russ had? Oh, that’s right! Russ had no TE!!! The only one who showed any potential (Greg Dulcic) is probably going to be an injury-bust! You people are comical.

You always manage to nail it on the head for me when it comes to the Broncos. Couldn't agree more with your sentiment in this one, and the one you made on GPS. I'm beyond ready to move on. This is exhausting
The exhausting part is the obsession with Wilson's personality and wanting him to be imperfect. Wanting him to mention times he "fcked up." We don't ask other Quarterbacks to do that. Everyone else is making an issue with Wilson that doesn't need to be there. Just let him be himself.
@andref9663 you missed the point entirely, he's not being himself. He's portraying a character he wants the public to see. Brandon literally proved that point by showing the article from years ago when Russ said he was a bully when he was young. The point is he HAS had points in his life where he didn't take the high road and he refuses to acknowledge it. He's a robot. It's incredibly disingenuous.
@@andref9663We _do_ ask other quarterbacks to do that, even other quarterbacks named Wilson. It was a hot topic after the Jets lost to the Patriots on the walkoff punt return TD that Zach Wilson didn't take responsibility for the loss (and should have).

This Brandon guy is a genius, and football savant. as a Kansas City Chiefs fan I agree, 100% you guys should re-sign Russell Wilson to a lifetime contract.
Dude I loved it and I loved him in Seattle, but theres something different when hes on your team and hes just robotic and calculated, never showing true emotions. Its hard to get behind someone like that because you have no idea how truly genuine this person is.
I'm a Seattle fan who will always have a fond spot for Russell. He was a part of that amazing 2013 team and despite people saying the defense carried him, he was key in many situations that season that helped them win. He was a very, very good QB for awhile. But yeah, he's corny AF and seems way too concerned with his brand. The main reason Seattle moved on from him was the start of his decline plus knowing his very ruthless agent was going to demand a massive contract extension. Russ's team will never rework a contract to benefit a team. He's maximizing his income during his playing career. Period. I can't say I blame him, to be honest. And yes, the ultimate irony would be Wilson getting his second super bowl ring on Bronco money while playing elsewhere.
Always a fond spot. During his first 5 years, there were bigger names and frankly better QBs in the league. For more than two seasons I told all the Boys at the bar, "If I had to start a team with the best QB from scratch? I would pick Russel Wilson." Like, an expansion team? He did so many things well, besides throw the ball. He was very complete, like a Swiss Army knife. Watched a ton of his games. His decisions were great, and his runs were great.
I’ve heard some say that Russell is too reliant on his athleticism, and that his game was unlikely to age gracefully (unlike pocket passers like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady). So a massive contract extension with him would have inevitably been a huge albatross at some point; if not immediately like it was for Denver. Also, the media may treat Seattle like a smaller market than deserved, but I don’t know if Denver is one of the bigger markets?
He was always a middle tier QB, him and Brady are on the same level when it comes to the amount of help they had to start their careers. And the stats back that up, they had legendary defenses to start their careers

Indeed bro!!! Indeed! I was sooooo happy we traded him! Sooo happy! I was just tired of EVERYTHING Brandon basically went over..... especially the God damn on time shit and over the middle shit when there WIDE OPEN! ....
I was done after round two of trade rumors and talk. When he was finally trade I was just happy to be done with the BD. His behavior in Denver though has really soured me on him as a person. He comes across as disingenuous and never takes real accountability
I'm a Seahawks fan, and these Russ shenanigans are why I was cool when he was traded before we knew for sure he was washed. I also recall and have receipts when my Broncos fans friends were gloating, by responding with versions of 'just you wait'. Not only did he have the perfect coach in Seattle, the national media treats Seattle like Southern Alaska, so his weirdness was never fully put on blast like it is now, and what was always so frustrating, was the chasm between what came out of his mouth, and the actions of Team Russ who were manipulative assassins.
Great post. I live in Portland, and you are right. Seattle might as well be next to Juneau as far as the rest of the country goes. With Portland next to Ketchikan.
@@kessel12Exactly. It annoys me when everyone keeps pretending all Broncos fan endorsed this. I said before Wilson trade that was a big mistake equivalent to Herschel Walker trade for the Vikings back in the day. Wilson at his best wasn’t worth all those picks, players and money involved in the trade.
All us Seahawks fans know Russ knows he’s not going to be there. He doesn’t really want to be there, but he’s 100% locked into the “correct thing to say” playbook at all times, and what’s he supposed to say, “Nah, Brandon, I’m done.” Nope, appearance of a team player at all times. Like when he said he wanted to be a Seahawks for life when he was already mentally out the door.
Dude... This might be one of your best offseason, deep-dive/player profile vids. Ever. Heard every take under the sun on the benching, but THIS one holds all sides accountable, while making sense. Great mix of "It is, what it is" honesty, with fanatically, biased hyperbole. Wilson could be just a year, or two, away from seeing a remarkably familiar-looking Lego head be tortured in ways no one would dare fathom. The horror. And to quote Bart Scott, I "Can't wait!" 😎
It's honestly refreshing to see a guy like Justin Fields saying something like "honestly, I just want it to be over and know who I'm playing for" because OF COURSE he hears the rumours and gets asked about it often. Of course it's weighing on him and it doesn't make him a bad leader just because he's honest and says "yeah it sucks and I get it, I just wanna move on and be great". That's an A+ approach to it.
right! admit the situation. Don't even pitch how to get out of it. Just acknowledge it, and you become much more human. Don't hide behind your agent and lawyers.
Perna, always thought you were funny, but also a meathead fan. Your analysis of the psychology of RW was amazing. (pathological positivism is a way to cover up your own pain/limitation/neurosis) Your open-mindedness about him staying in Denver was more than amazing. (Broncos go get Derek Henry, and it transforms Denver O and Wilson's role) You are intelligent, insightful, and in control of your art. Well done, sir!
Oh man, y’all are going through exactly what we went through in Seattle. You’re right, everything he says is calculated and a PR move. I’m not sure he’s capable of any other mode than robot-mode. I feel your pain but man thanks for the laughs, had me crying at times 😂
Seattle messed up not using all those picks to find a QBoTF as they currently clearly have the worst starting QB in the NFCW n I one of the worst in the NFC. SEA has to draft a replacement this year which is why trading away that second for a guy not under contract was so stupid. 2025s QB Class is the weakest since 2013 so they need to take a guy this year. I think SEA is going to suck for a while particularly this season.

Honestly I don't blame him for his positivity. Don't clutter your mind on the negative. Also this channel has been great entertainment during the Wilson years. Thank you!
You nailed it about Russ. Most 12's could have told you all of this two years ago. As a 12 I was fine when Russ was traded and everything in this video is why I was ok with the trade.
As a long time Seahawks fan watching a Bronco fan's Russ experience has been fascinating. Like not even the play experience just the 'what *is* this guy' thing
13:33 - That sums up his entire Seahawks career, which is why most Hawks fans will usually joke about requiring a heart attack to win. EDIT: Geno's comeback record this year continues the required heart attack requirement.
I actually really liked your Russ-analysis and have felt the same as your meticulous breakdown kept rolling. In sum total..he’s a head case of a good guy. 😵💫
This is low-key a fascinating study into humanity. At some point, positivity comes at the cost of humility and introspection. Any character trait that sounds good in theory can be a slippery slope that may be detrimental to the self and those around him. ....Also, Boomer Esiason at #2 nicest quarterback? I'll take his word for it, but that's a surprise.
Great overall analysis. Disagree though that we're not in a poistion to get someone better or that he should come back. Someone else very well could be better and too much damage has been done
I watch wilson for 10 years, always a robot, always will have magical plays, will always hold the ball to long and take bad sacks looking for the big play. Some of the best plays I've ever seen and some really bad ones. He just needs to be in the right system and pete carrol knew how to play him.
It's no secret that Russ is a man of faith. As a Christian myself, I appreciate Russ' courage for being unapologetically Christian knowing many people would clown him for it. That being said, i think he tries too hard to appear as someone who is faultless since that's how he thinks a Christian needs to be. He needs to own up more to his faults both on and off the football field and more ppl would take him seriously.
There was a time when I heard people compared Russell Wilson to Drew Brees, and I think it means much more to how insanely good Drew Brees was to say that it isn't even comparable.
I know there is a bias on expecting Russ to consider removing his injury guarantee, but it is honestly pretty unreasonable for him to throw away all of that guaranteed money. I think the Broncos overpaid and Sean Peyton hurt any chance they had at working something out by benching and yelling at Russ. Feel like this is more an issue of buyer's remorse that might very much hurt the team because of their choices. You are not wrong about your criticism of his unlimited attitude.
I don't like how Denver treated Russell. He was put into a bad situation and he hung in there and they started to make it work together. Right when they got it working, they pulled the rug out from under him.
I’m revisiting this video after he went to my Steelers. I hope Perna is right about every bit of analysis he gave that would allow Russ to perform at the highest level
When you need a clear and objective opinion on a story, it's astonishing how often you get it from its most hardcore, biased fans, rather than national media talking heads like Booger and RG3 and all of the rest of them. Perna is a gem. -- a random, biased, objective Chargers fan.
The Steelers would be a perfect situation for Russ. They have a solid team and foundation. Jaylen Warren and Najee Harris can help take the load off of Russ and Arthur smith loves to run the ball and play action which suits his play style. Plus with Pickens, Johnson, friermuoth. Let Russ cook again.
When people put breaks on themselves for being bad, don't tell them to go back to being bad. I guarantee it won't just end at yelling at his teammates.
Being a lifelong SeaHawks fan and supporter of Russ , After wining SB XLVIII then " Milking " the SeaHawks for the Moon , I was a little surprised and upset. I though he might take more after Brady and take a more team friendly contracts.
Random stat I found: Mahomes leads the league in INTs overturned by penalty in the last 6 years with 53. Josh Allen is second in this with a whopping 7
Perna you're the best, always dropping vids right before I get in the shower so I have something to listen to! Keep up the great work man we love you! Edit: If only there was an innovative electric razor designed just for men that could elevate the experience even further...
idk, i came up as a seahawks fan with russ, he has always been like this. if it is calculated then its an amazing job by him but i think this is just him and what he believes. I think he really just hates puuting out negativity and if thats at the expense of some peoppe not thinking he is "real" i dont think he cares. i think its unfare to say he hasnt put the blame on himself, idk whole thing just dosnt seem fare to the guy and i was one of the the hawks fans that hoped the broncos sucked with him
I remember a buddy of mine crying tears of joy when he got the espn alert about Russ going to Denver. I'm a Raider fan so ofc I told him it wouldn't work out, I was high on copium. Didn't think I would be so right lol.
He has so much room to be a bitch about it, but he doesn’t. He says the right things to not burn bridges, or act childish. He remains professional. Idk what else you would want him to do, other than entertain you with outbursts and talking points. /shrug he’s alright by me even if he sucks as a qb now
Purna should be thanking Russell Wilson. If he didn't exist, we wouldn't have seen the dichotomy between Purna pre Wilson vs. Post. I will always thank him for letting this channel cook. All hail The Worst, ∞ Game/Contract/etc of all time
Russel isn't the problem. He can do what he was hired to do. Denver could still live up to its agreement for the SB 2024 but the obstacles must be removed.
If you want to understand how players view contract negotiations, just remember that line from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies: take what you can, give nothing back.

You hit the nail on the head. Both Hackett and Payton lied to Russ and the public when they claimed they would design an offense around Russ’s skill set. Mahomes has that, and it’s why he keeps winning.
Throwing over the middle is like being a great free-throw shooter, and Russ is good at it when given the right protection and a body that can run a crisp slant or other middle route.
Remember: not consistently hitting free throws didn’t stop Shaq or Wilt from being two of the five most dominant players in NBA history - the others were obviously Jordan, Magic and Kareem. Kobe and TD were both arguably better as players, but not dominant.
Anyway, you get my point. Denver fans talk like they have great players. They don’t, and once Russ is with another squad, he will be himself again. A surprise team or two will bid on him.

Indeed bro!!! Indeed! I was sooooo happy we traded him! Sooo happy! I was just tired of EVERYTHING Brandon basically went over..... especially the God damn on time shit and over the middle shit when there WIDE OPEN! ....
Fakest fan on the earth🤡🤣
As a Seahawks fan your damn liar.
I was done after round two of trade rumors and talk. When he was finally trade I was just happy to be done with the BD. His behavior in Denver though has really soured me on him as a person. He comes across as disingenuous and never takes real accountability
I'm a Seahawks fan, and these Russ shenanigans are why I was cool when he was traded before we knew for sure he was washed. I also recall and have receipts when my Broncos fans friends were gloating, by responding with versions of 'just you wait'. Not only did he have the perfect coach in Seattle, the national media treats Seattle like Southern Alaska, so his weirdness was never fully put on blast like it is now, and what was always so frustrating, was the chasm between what came out of his mouth, and the actions of Team Russ who were manipulative assassins.
This pleases me
I’m a Broncos fan. I never wanted him in the first place.
Manipulative assassins?
Great post. I live in Portland, and you are right. Seattle might as well be next to Juneau as far as the rest of the country goes. With Portland next to Ketchikan.
@@kessel12Exactly. It annoys me when everyone keeps pretending all Broncos fan endorsed this. I said before Wilson trade that was a big mistake equivalent to Herschel Walker trade for the Vikings back in the day. Wilson at his best wasn’t worth all those picks, players and money involved in the trade.
All us Seahawks fans know Russ knows he’s not going to be there. He doesn’t really want to be there, but he’s 100% locked into the “correct thing to say” playbook at all times, and what’s he supposed to say, “Nah, Brandon, I’m done.” Nope, appearance of a team player at all times. Like when he said he wanted to be a Seahawks for life when he was already mentally out the door.
Dude...
This might be one of your best offseason, deep-dive/player profile vids. Ever.
Heard every take under the sun on the benching, but THIS one holds all sides accountable, while making sense.
Great mix of "It is, what it is" honesty, with fanatically, biased hyperbole.
Wilson could be just a year, or two, away from seeing a remarkably familiar-looking Lego head be tortured in ways no one would dare fathom.
The horror.
And to quote Bart Scott, I "Can't wait!" 😎
It's honestly refreshing to see a guy like Justin Fields saying something like "honestly, I just want it to be over and know who I'm playing for" because OF COURSE he hears the rumours and gets asked about it often. Of course it's weighing on him and it doesn't make him a bad leader just because he's honest and says "yeah it sucks and I get it, I just wanna move on and be great". That's an A+ approach to it.
right! admit the situation. Don't even pitch how to get out of it. Just acknowledge it, and you become much more human. Don't hide behind your agent and lawyers.
You are my favorite sports TH-camr Brandon. I like grossi but there is just something jaded and angry about you that I really connect with.
“DELUSION HOPE DELUSION HOPE DELUSION HOPE DELUSION HOPE DELUSION HOPE” as the background of the thumbnail was so funny yo me 😂😂😂
Best combination of comedy and football analysis, period
Perna, always thought you were funny, but also a meathead fan. Your analysis of the psychology of RW was amazing. (pathological positivism is a way to cover up your own pain/limitation/neurosis) Your open-mindedness about him staying in Denver was more than amazing. (Broncos go get Derek Henry, and it transforms Denver O and Wilson's role)
You are intelligent, insightful, and in control of your art. Well done, sir!
Oh man, y’all are going through exactly what we went through in Seattle. You’re right, everything he says is calculated and a PR move. I’m not sure he’s capable of any other mode than robot-mode. I feel your pain but man thanks for the laughs, had me crying at times 😂
Seattle messed up not using all those picks to find a QBoTF as they currently clearly have the worst starting QB in the NFCW n I one of the worst in the NFC. SEA has to draft a replacement this year which is why trading away that second for a guy not under contract was so stupid. 2025s QB Class is the weakest since 2013 so they need to take a guy this year. I think SEA is going to suck for a while particularly this season.
I'd take Geno over Kyler Murray.. at least Geno can stay on the field
@@chrissears5482 Then you’re either dumb or the biggest SEA homer around and need to put the koolaid down. You know if you had a chance at Murray u wouldn’t take Geno, no one would no GM in the league would. Murray has stayed on the field, he’s had one injured in his career and non contact ACL. He had missed a whopping 3 games in his first 60+ starts, several big name prototypical QBs have missed a lot more time.
Murray is a far more talented n gifted QB than Geno freaking Smith is, a journeyman in his mid 30s who’s so good SEAs trying to draft a QB to move on from him. Murray left more talent in the toilet this morning than Genos ever had in his life. Murray coming of an ACL learning a brand new offense QB”d AZs offense to a top 10 ranking between weeks 9-18 with zero WR talent around him outside of rookie WR Michael Wilson n elite TE Trey McBride, there’s maybe 5 other QBs in the league who coulda done that with that personnel around them.
SEAs own GM wouldn’t take Geno over Murray given the opportunity to sign him you know how I know? Because SEA tried to trade Russell Wilson to AZ in 2019 along with their 2nd rd pick for the #1 pick which they wanted to draft Kyler Murray with.
Murray is an elite talent and one of the best young QBs in the league who’s proven he can play at an MVP caliber level, Genos a journeyman a career backup who’s an avg starter no one would take Geno over Murray that’s straight up moronic, Geno doesn’t have close to the arm talent that Murray has and on top of that Murray is an elite rushing QB with 4.3 speed doesn’t get hit n is one of the two best running QBs n the league n who’s set several NFL records and is the only US Athlete EVER drafted in the top 10 in two different major sports which is saying something considering the athletes this country has produced.

Honestly I don't blame him for his positivity. Don't clutter your mind on the negative. Also this channel has been great entertainment during the Wilson years. Thank you!
You nailed it about Russ. Most 12's could have told you all of this two years ago. As a 12 I was fine when Russ was traded and everything in this video is why I was ok with the trade.
the most relatable thing about russ is his shortcomings over the last two years, which arguably is him at his most likeable
Straight fax one hunnit 💯 💯 no cap 🧢 fr fr
As a long time Seahawks fan watching a Bronco fan's Russ experience has been fascinating.
Like not even the play experience just the 'what *is* this guy' thing
Well, you learned the bottom line about Russ. Seahawks Nation welcomes you to the club, Perna.
So long and thanks for all the fish.
Dudes self belief seems amazing , so much so he can’t even see how far he’s regressed the past few years
Please, please keep him in Denver. Please
As a Raider's fan, please, please keep him, he is a perfect fit in Denver ;)
Let’s be honest the raiders will still be shit no matter who we have at qb
@@BenEllis-u1xlow expectations lol as long as they get their 2 wins against the Broncos that's all they care about
@@Woeisme2 both of us are doomed to get dominated by the chiefs anyway
Raiders tank doesn't want competition I suppose 😂
You know that $1.5 M salary is really attractive to Mark Davis. Plus Ciara would be less resistant to a Vegas move than Pittsburgh.
This is one of your best videos dude! It’s honestly one of the best breakdowns/ analysis of a player interview I have ever watched.
13:33 - That sums up his entire Seahawks career, which is why most Hawks fans will usually joke about requiring a heart attack to win.
EDIT: Geno's comeback record this year continues the required heart attack requirement.
Thanks for all the pics😁😆😆

Do you know how many tacos Brandon could buy with that money?!
100% correct and accurate…love it!!!
He was really good with Baldwin, Lynch and all the tight ends we had back in the day.
I actually really liked your Russ-analysis and have felt the same as your meticulous breakdown kept rolling. In sum total..he’s a head case of a good guy. 😵💫
Well said
You NAILED this analysis
Long Time Seahawks fan, Russ is the Tom Cruise of the NFL.
Wearing lifts?
Brandon "I hate you Russell Wilson and yet you were the one who finally beat the Chiefs for the Broncos" Perna
Sometimes I watch That’s good sports just to hear him say that’s good sports it’s so good 😊.
This is low-key a fascinating study into humanity. At some point, positivity comes at the cost of humility and introspection. Any character trait that sounds good in theory can be a slippery slope that may be detrimental to the self and those around him.
....Also, Boomer Esiason at #2 nicest quarterback? I'll take his word for it, but that's a surprise.
Great overall analysis. Disagree though that we're not in a poistion to get someone better or that he should come back. Someone else very well could be better and too much damage has been done
I watch wilson for 10 years, always a robot, always will have magical plays, will always hold the ball to long and take bad sacks looking for the big play. Some of the best plays I've ever seen and some really bad ones. He just needs to be in the right system and pete carrol knew how to play him.
Your Jeremy Fowler impression is inspirational on numerous levels, and of course, spot on.
there's nothing better then thinking about Russel Wilson and Sean payton kissing
Lmfao
It's no secret that Russ is a man of faith. As a Christian myself, I appreciate Russ' courage for being unapologetically Christian knowing many people would clown him for it.
That being said, i think he tries too hard to appear as someone who is faultless since that's how he thinks a Christian needs to be. He needs to own up more to his faults both on and off the football field and more ppl would take him seriously.
People can relate more when you are realistic and admit that you are not perfect, but still striving to be the best you can.
There was a time when I heard people compared Russell Wilson to Drew Brees, and I think it means much more to how insanely good Drew Brees was to say that it isn't even comparable.
Incredible breakdown, coming from a longtime Hawks fan
This is the perfect Russell Wilson analysis there is.
I know there is a bias on expecting Russ to consider removing his injury guarantee, but it is honestly pretty unreasonable for him to throw away all of that guaranteed money. I think the Broncos overpaid and Sean Peyton hurt any chance they had at working something out by benching and yelling at Russ. Feel like this is more an issue of buyer's remorse that might very much hurt the team because of their choices. You are not wrong about your criticism of his unlimited attitude.
Russ is that guy who always tries to be friendly with his co-workers rather than actually be a good co-worker.
Every episode is gold. You bat 1.000 with the content!
Humility and honesty is a more relatable trait, everyone fails and can be a shitty person. If he can’t be that guy he can’t grow.
I don't like how Denver treated Russell. He was put into a bad situation and he hung in there and they started to make it work together. Right when they got it working, they pulled the rug out from under him.
I’m revisiting this video after he went to my Steelers. I hope Perna is right about every bit of analysis he gave that would allow Russ to perform at the highest level
I've said this before but Russ is the king of toxic positivity
Dude, another exceptional video
Great commentary. That interview subtext has "I'm taking vet minimum to play for the Raiders for one year, simply for spite. "
Here’s an Idea for future videos: Do more Lions videos. They are the new America’s Team. Plus, they are my team.
At this point Brandon is going to write a Russel Wilson broncos fan fiction
Gotta be more inspirational than his Chiefs anti-fan fiction =)
When you need a clear and objective opinion on a story, it's astonishing how often you get it from its most hardcore, biased fans, rather than national media talking heads like Booger and RG3 and all of the rest of them. Perna is a gem. -- a random, biased, objective Chargers fan.
Brandon you are the best🫡
U r spot on in this video! Didn’t Manning restructured his contract?
Most likely he will b gone, if that is the case, GP needs to go also!!
'Just give me 10 fucking wins' A simple request lol
seems easy enough, hasn't been for Denver though unfortunately
@@tombosley3048 At least Brandon's slow decent into madness makes for some entertaining content.
As a Chiefs fan, I've enjoyed seeing Russell Wilson in Denver.
I hope he stays there for many years to come. 😁
That's just Cruel!
“An enigma at the quarterback position”
He has always been this and is Seahawks fans knew it. Somehow Pete was able to win a Super bowl with him.
Lifelong Hawks fan, Russ went from "Why not us?" to "How about me?"
It's called Shaun Alexander syndrome haha
Thank you Perna. That is very good episode. Russ is so wrong by trying not to be a human. Thank you for this, you are very human Brandon 😁
Russ doesn’t need to express his feelings to to the public. He keeps his life private, which makes sense
With Brandon “There’s always hope & delusion too” Perna
The Steelers would be a perfect situation for Russ. They have a solid team and foundation. Jaylen Warren and Najee Harris can help take the load off of Russ and Arthur smith loves to run the ball and play action which suits his play style. Plus with Pickens, Johnson, friermuoth. Let Russ cook again.
What a great analysis ❤
Great video Perna! Your insights are awesome, and I hope that things work out for Russ and the broncos.
Russ has made himself into an ideal IG QB. Too bad games aren't played there!
These videos are great watching after the fact.
Platitude Jesus speaks again
Catching this late. Honest. Entertaining. Im not even a Bronco fan. 😂👍
Seahawks fans are the Leonardo DiCaprio meme pointing at the TV right now
When a qb is limited to edges only no real over the middle threat is s problem and every team nows it
I love you Brandon
Not gonna lie I was expecting the usual goofy shit. And there was some, but this is both insightful and entertaining. Well done.
When people put breaks on themselves for being bad, don't tell them to go back to being bad. I guarantee it won't just end at yelling at his teammates.
I find myself watching your content when Pat & the boys go on vacation lol
Russell Wilson is the DSP of the NFL
Great video... You are very good at your job.
Being a lifelong SeaHawks fan and supporter of Russ , After wining SB XLVIII then " Milking " the SeaHawks for the Moon , I was a little surprised and upset. I though he might take more after Brady and take a more team friendly contracts.
That would be so cool if that was the real reason why Denver Co. is called the mile high city.
Random stat I found: Mahomes leads the league in INTs overturned by penalty in the last 6 years with 53. Josh Allen is second in this with a whopping 7
Perna you're the best, always dropping vids right before I get in the shower so I have something to listen to! Keep up the great work man we love you!
Edit: If only there was an innovative electric razor designed just for men that could elevate the experience even further...
I do the exact same thing everyday 😂
Dude’s listening to Perna in the shower getting excited. Loss of appetite. Thanks.
idk, i came up as a seahawks fan with russ, he has always been like this. if it is calculated then its an amazing job by him but i think this is just him and what he believes. I think he really just hates puuting out negativity and if thats at the expense of some peoppe not thinking he is "real" i dont think he cares. i think its unfare to say he hasnt put the blame on himself, idk whole thing just dosnt seem fare to the guy and i was one of the the hawks fans that hoped the broncos sucked with him
Russel Wilson’s the kinda guy to walk through a store and point at things saying “size 10, need a medium, let me get 2 of those”
Mr. Say the right thing
I remember a buddy of mine crying tears of joy when he got the espn alert about Russ going to Denver. I'm a Raider fan so ofc I told him it wouldn't work out, I was high on copium. Didn't think I would be so right lol.
He has so much room to be a bitch about it, but he doesn’t. He says the right things to not burn bridges, or act childish. He remains professional. Idk what else you would want him to do, other than entertain you with outbursts and talking points. /shrug he’s alright by me even if he sucks as a qb now
Just imagine what Aaron Rodgers would be saying if he ended up in Denver like what the Broncos initially wanted.
Purna should be thanking Russell Wilson. If he didn't exist, we wouldn't have seen the dichotomy between Purna pre Wilson vs. Post. I will always thank him for letting this channel cook. All hail The Worst, ∞ Game/Contract/etc of all time
Russel isn't the problem. He can do what he was hired to do. Denver could still live up to its agreement for the SB 2024 but the obstacles must be removed.
Russel Wilson sounds like hulk hogan “doesn’t work for me brotha”
If you want to understand how players view contract negotiations, just remember that line from the Pirates of the Caribbean movies: take what you can, give nothing back.
your summary, pro level, on target!
