I’m a Broncos fan and you made some good points, but I disagree about Russell Wilson. You keep pointing out the touchdown passes, which is a padded stat due to their offense constantly getting the ball in the red zone while the defense was getting 3 turnovers a game, and leaving out the 45 sacks, 30 of those sacks 100% Russ’s fault. Holding the ball and running from clean pockets are not things that good quarterbacks do. He used to get away with it when he was young, but now pass rushers are younger and faster than he is. It just wasn’t sustainable, especially with Russ making top 5 money. The Broncos made a difficult, but good decision moving on from him. I’m also happy they benched him when they did. Getting embarrassed by the Lions and losing to the patriots was unacceptable.
Totally agree, ultimately it was a good move for both parties. Russ is nowhere close to his Seattle days and he didn't really fit in to Payton's scheme. He may find some success in a run-heavy offense and better offensive line in Pittsburgh.
@@ffmetricsBroncos offensive line was better than the Steelers oline last year and I don’t really see that changing this year as well. Not sure the fit with Arthur Smith is a good as made out to be as well. Russ does not throw over the middle of the field, a very consistent trend in his game and Smith has run some of the highest rates of middle of the field concepts in the league the last couple years. Smith will have to adapt the offense around Russ’ limited and declining skillset to find success. Just like Sean Payton had to adapt the offense last season as well.
The Pitt Den game is a tough ticket because Steeler fans travel very well. Even when Denver was going to playoffs every year I would see a lot of yellow in the stands

I like Paton. What I dont like is that he traded away all of his draft picks when his specialty is scouting draft talent..
Thanks Ben! I wished you and Ryan would do the videos of Broncos Country Tonight again!
That was a great interview, excellent insight! GO Broncos
All right, the ‘insider’ that never breaks any news
What is on the ceiling? I can't watch this
Insider? I highly doubt that.
He is a smug pudge boy!
