Colin, brother, leave some for Sean’s wife.
😂😂😂😂
Seriously this side chick energy is annoying
well he isnt lying. russel did this shit in seattle. he somehow is always the victim. @@leftisland2603
If youtubes algorithm had an award for the comment of the day, you would be a finalist for sure. Lmao
By the time you wrote the comment, nothing was left
Colin said 2 weeks ago that payton fixed Russ. 😅
That is a fixed Russ. That’s as good as it gets
That is why I think he is not a credible voice on this issue. He talks from both sides of his mouth@@palestinianboss8
@@palestinianboss8definitely not. Idk how you have any likes
@@palestinianboss8 a chair from the 80s ?? 🤷🤷🤣🤣
Colin cannot do an honest assessment bc he likes Sean.
There was no data on Russell Wilson to justify gambling on the size of his contract. They only have themselves to blame from a management perspective. This was always the likely outcome on paper. Why they invested so much, with so little justification, is beyond me.
Because they wanted to get the contract done before all the young guns upped the Market which did happen. That said still over paid but when wilson signed he was 2nd highest paid QB now he's the 8th or 9th. If he ended up playing really well it would have cost denver twice the amount to keep him. That said I don't agree with this....
One guy that made the call to sign and trade for him; George Paton. Major mistake to sign for him without playing a down.
@@andys3035he needs to go
I agree & would argue that there was plenty of data to justify NOT giving Russell that contract. Nobody in Denver apparently thought that watching Seahawks game film of the last 2-3 years of Russell's career there might have been prudent; if they did watch it they need to have their eyes checked - all the signs were there.
Seriously!! As a Seattle fan, I was like wtf?!
Colin just is protecting his relationship with Sean Payton
Colin should be banned off the air‼️ He’s lost all credibility.👎🏾💯
BIGTIME
Never feel bad for millionaires
Or billionaires who make the millionaire
@@johnholliday13 Exactly. Denver's owned by the Wal-mart family, who are in the top 3 or 4 wealthiest people in the United States.
Sticking up for your friend. Wish I had a friend like you 😢
Russell wilson is 11-19 as a Bronco and 15-25 in his last 40 games, hes washed up simple as that
0:30 gotta love coaches having buddies in media to shape narratives and provide cover
this dude would take a bullet for payton lol
@@siniister710 no question 😂😂
Colin Coward is doing damage control for Sean Payton's behavior.
@@Landonb22 watching him switch up in real time is wild
We lknow CC is friends with Sean Payton, but it doesn't make it less true. Pete Carroll and Sean Payton (both SB winning coaches) have moved off him. That's real. I do think Russ is a nice guy. But he became prideful and has had a very harsh reality check.
The telling remark was this. All of the offensive coaches in Seattle got fired.
So what’s the reason for Pete Carroll’s failure after 2 seasons without Russ? I guess it’s still Russ’s fault
@@asorahigh1270Lol no kidding. Carroll gets fired after two seasons without Russell. Pete even said he’d have been fired years ago if they didn’t have Wilson
YUP! Ya lost me on this one Colin. Totally correct, the 'Good Ol Boys' club supporting one another. Missed the point all together. You started off I know Masta' Peyton well. Luv it!
Russ ain't responsible for defence, broncos got 70 hanged on them by dolphins.
Russ is not in his prime, but he is a lot better than last season.
Broncos are only to blame to overpaying him and extending his contract, while sean is responsible for defence and playcalling.
what about the game losing fumbles or picks? They missed the playoffs this season by losing to the Pats that had 3 wins at the time because of Russ. Now Sean told him to throw the ball to the other team? You loved the running around when they won a game. Now when it doesn't work against a good defense it's Sean's fault.
@@enigma13ff, remember Russ has known he was a deadman walking since October. He probably had problems concentrating under those circumstances. SP threw him under the buss and then backed it over him to make sure.
then he's weak mentally lol. he's not who he was in 2013@@mawavoy
he is responsible for giving the ball to the opposing defense... he had no issue handing the ball over to the Commanders
The GM for broncos has to go
Yeah Sean Payton’s Dangerus barely 16 point offense lol
with the back-up qb... who had same stats as russ minus the int and fumble
@@pmpster5 Wilson has 3 fumbles lost on the season, which is normal for most QBs. Tua has 13 lost fumbles, and Josh Allen has almost as many turnovers as he does TDs, and you people worship him. I’ll never understand where the hate for Wilson comes from and why people make up fake stats to paint a bad picture of Wilson.
wilson had two games with 3 fumbles each lol. stop the cap@@shipjumper6068
@pmpster5 Let's not forget 1 less touchdown, would've been 2 if juedy could catch.
and another dropped int lol. juedy dropped two for stidham along with the TE. either way russ is mid@@giovan5219
Lol the switch up is crazy. I mean I guess stick up for your friend but damn switching up that big on Russ from Colin is crazy. I understand his time in Denver was terrible but he wasn’t the only problem. Payton didn’t want him the second he came into the building that’s hard to play for a coach who doesn’t want you at all. Idk Russ leaving will be great for both sides
You obviously are a Sean Payton supporter. Question, how can you ask for a player to have poise but you don't possess that, are you saying Sean Payton has display poise? He has won one Superbowl and hasn't even sniffed around another one since.
A few things can be true:
Russ isn’t a top 10 QB anymore - although he might have a stat that’s top 10.
Sean Payton isn’t some offensive guru… his lone SB win was the exact same year as BountyGate.
Evidently he's more of an offensive guru than Nathaniel Hackett.....
@@josiahleis6574 not the highest of bars lol
I bet U can not name 2 Qbs better than Russ after number 10 this year. I will help U Brock Dak Patrick Stafford jayland geno, maybe Groff help me this year, and I will wait 😂
@@JFKMLK I don’t have to name anyone
Russ is on the back end of his career, thjs is what it’ll look like from here on out
same team with different QB kinda screams scheme
Sean Payton had a hall of fame QB in Drew Brees for 15 years and got to one SB. Seems like the Bronco's owners are betting high on Sean Payton, and I hope that works out for them.
I agree with you. Russel Wilson has shown he can qb you to a Super Bowl, but you need a solid defense like all Super Bowl champions. A lot more to this than Wilson’s play.
How many HC’s in the NFL right now have a SB win?
@@rolotomassi9806Wilson needs an all time defense and run game to get past all of his limitations
@@cybersecurity36 I think most successful QBs need those to win championships.
That was my point, but he’s capable more so than others
We've seen it happen almost in every case: A QB that plays like crap as soon as they land a huge money payday. Russ was the next casualty. (even Mahomes hasn't been playing as good after his contract adjustment this season!!)
Mahomes hasn't have the same level of offensive talent around him the past two years.
It’s how Sean Payton humiliated Russ. He did it all publicly. Payton is a bully and not a match for Russ.
russ humiliated denver for two years lol
@@pmpster5naw buddy, it was Nathaniel Hackett’s fault last year because he did the same thing to the NY Jets this season. The Broncos weren’t seller dwellers this season like last year.
@@pmpster5 during that time Cowherd acted as RW’s media apologist. Now apparently he’s acting as Payton’s mouthpiece to kick RW’s back in, publicly
Broncos problem was not all on Russ. He has been playing well this year. Payton and Wilson are oil and water. Wilson needs freedom to act creatively to win. Payton wants total control.
that's what happens when new info comes out lol. everyone was quick to believe wilsons side and just trashed denver. now more truth is coming out that makes wilson look worse@@millertime773
This guy is gettin exposed by this Payton/Russel crap. Now I know…
Sean Payton is just showing his true colors. They always do in the end.
And Sean Payton is a average coach getting paid like an elite coach
Facts.
He'll get fired for losing too.
That doesn't matter as much though, because unlike a QB's salary, the Head Coach's salary does not affect the cap. Wilson's insane salary is preventing the Broncos from hiring other good players, Payton's isn't. Additionally, the Broncos with Russell but without Payton were 5-12 last year. They're already 8-8, with the possibility of being 9-8, so clearly Payton was an upgrade at Head Coach over what they had. I thought they should've cut Wilson after last year, so I certainly don't regret them doing it now. It was a terrible trade that is going to hamper the Broncos for years to come.
@josiahleis6574 but it still effects ability to pay. Look at Oakland. They are paying 3 coaches that no longer coach for them. So the next one has to come at a discount
Facts.
If you don't like him, just bench him and release him later to save your injury guarantee money. You don't need to go to him and ask him to waive it so you can play him knowing that you will release him later. If Russ side buys into it and he does get injured, he would have lost a bunch of money that he is entitled to. He did not force Denver into signing that contract.
Sridham was pedestrian at best , poor accuracy , they need a qb
Colin is 100% spot on. As a lifelong broncos fan (36 years) I was happy to see the Broncos rip off the band aid and admit that the Wilson experiment isn’t working.
As fans we all knew since last year that Russ was unfixable. His stats are a mirage and the true story lies in his QBR. He’s the 21st ranked QB in the league. The dude is definitely not worth the money. People forget that Payton Manning was willing to take a pay cut going into his last season. Russ thinks he’s a legit elite QB and he just isn’t.
Russ isn't in the same shape as Payton. Remember, he had that surgery right before he went to Denver. Also, Collin is biased as hell. You must not have watched last year when Sean was on the show.
Ya I don't agree with you my man, russ actually looked somewhat decent, it was the contract that made him look bad in people eyes, but we have no one to blame but management, if you are russ you would be stupid not to take that
And as far as peyton let's be real he was coming off a huge injury, and outside of the superbowl which that was all the defense, I think the peyton Era to me was very overrated he was good but we would choke😊
Some topics you should leave alone. Everyone ages. He’s not the same. You have some emotions toward things. Leave alone because you don’t come off being completely open.
To be honest, I don’t think the issue is with the business side of things, but is how they handled it. I think that’s really the main issue not the fact that they were trying to restructure Russ’s contract.
But as a billion dollar team. If this is how an organization operates. Imagine how they treat the office folks.
They tried to keep it quiet, but Russell wasn't playing that game. Now, who looks like a fool. Payton and the Broncos do.
I totally agree with you. 👍🏽
This dude will bluff sean payton any time he can 😂
Pete Carroll didn’t move off Russ, Russ moved off the Seahawks. Tell the truth.
They did say Russ was on the trading block for josh Allen or the pick for Josh. Russ feelings got hurt and he wanted to leave and that’s understandable and what happen.
Colin you should limit your takes on this because it’s showing you’re not being rational here. Rw signed an extension that the broncos agreed to then when Sean Peyton came along things started to unfold and change however it’s a fact that the broncos told Wilson change your contract or be inactive. Sean Peyton’s play calling and the outburst was clear he did not like or care for Wilson and it was very clear his days were number. The timeline that’s been released and confirmed shows this season was full of problematic issues that never even leaked until Wilson was publicly benched. I know Sean is your friend however it’s not what was done it was how it was done Sean Peyton knew who to play with because Michael Vick, Lamar Jackson, Donovan McCabb, Aaron rodgers and even a number of other qbs would have checked Peyton quick trust me he played on Wilson’s personality and approach. It’s common knowledge Wilson grew up in an affluent family in the dmv area and he is just a very unique guy yes his play has been shaky but honor the contract and then move on not play with someone money in the season. This was tacky and I won’t address the other obvious issues but I can’t see how the broncos or the fans justify how they handle this and if I was Russel I would leave on the first plane ✈️ out of town.
The Sean Payton Propaganda Show
Accurate!
Yaeh… Sean Peyton berrating RW in the sidelines is VERY flawed… It was also disrespecful and viciuos.. Clearly was part of the plan… RW behave like a Gentleman… Funny How when CC runs out of arguments to defend SP or proof a point, He goes for RW personnal life… typical flawed Colin…
No, he's doing what a coach should do by agressively calling out a lack performance. This is football. There is no room for princesses and hyper sensitivitve primadonnas. Wilson has failed his contract. He doesn't want to restructure so they can afford to build around him. Neither want each other at this point. Wilson is unlikely to have a career resurgance. He's just...weird.
@itheuserfirst3186 in that Detroit game, Denver scored 3 times and Payton didn't toss the red challenge flag not once then he started yelling at Russ this was planned just like bounty gate people can see through that BS
Because he is in the wrong system Wilson is not Dru breeze who was a great quarterback so Peyton didn’t have to coach him Peyton is a bad coach for Wilson
So was Pete? Russ has 2 playoffs wins since LOB, so now Pete is bad as well? Because they made the playoffs without Russ when he missed the playoffs the previous year. Looks like Seahawks might be going back to the playoffs. The Broncos has 5 wins before Sean. With that math it seems someone is the constant issue.
@@enigma13ffwhat has Payton done one super bowl made by bounty gate
You are another hater of him. You know they didn’t like this guy from the start why are we acting naive?
I especially like your takes on most issues but on this one you should recuse yourself due to your friendship with Payton. Also, Payton only won one Super Bowl and he was 7 & 9 the last 3 years with the Saints which doesn't make him Bill Walsh. The Bronco's moving forward may have a difficult time signing free agents if this is how they are going to treat a Super Bowl winning QB. The jury is still out on Payton and my prediction is he will fail in Denver because how he handled this situation.
Free agents are going to go to the highest bidder. The broncos will be just fine with signing free agents
Only won one? How many HOF coaches and players have one or none? You think it's easy to win? Mike Tomlin is the exception, Even Andy Reid had losing seasons. Marv Levy didn't win one in four tries. Marino didn't win any. Steve Young "only" has one. Favre "only" has one and had a few bad years too. Some of you have the attention span of a puppy.
@@MikeC_337 Finally! A fan that understands the game. People are idiots sometimes. It’s hard to win a SB and as a Broncos fan I’m beyond happy that Russ will soon be gone and Sean Payton can move forward with his plans to bring Denver back to respectability. The owners bet on the right horse.
@cjmartinez3805 yeah you don't know how football works....
@@killnick88yet you can’t explain how what he said is false
swear these media guys are laughable...Russ can be elite with the right team and organization for another 5yrs
Hey bro how much did Payton give you to switch the narrative Colin bro I can garante Sean don’t mess with you like that bro😂
extra kudos to pete carrol. What a genius trade.
Colin, on your radio show today you said”80% of QB’s drafted fail, over 50% of first round QB fail”. Bo Nix may/may not be the answer until he is.
Bo Nix does look great; only thing is, his offensive line looks really great, so it's hard to tell what would happen when he gets pummeled like he's sure to be in the NFL. Same for Penix. They both might be fantastic, but their OLs help them out quite a bit.
As of week 14 Denver's offensive line is up to No. 6 in these offensive line rankings as per PFF. Previous to Week 17 PFF credited the Oline of Denver to be responsible for 15 of the 45 sacks, while Russell was credited as responsible for 30.......
A lot of these highly drafted college QB's in recent years seem to get injured and the issue is a really bad offensive line, as well as an inexperienced QB holding onto the ball too long and taking a ton of sacks.
Penix is the most pro ready out of all the QB's imo, he is the only one who throws 10 times a game with anticaption, underrated. The injuries are concerning but Deshawn has had two knee reconstructions too.
He looked a whole lot less heroic against Michigan's heavy pressure ... like they all do. Hey, QB is the toughest gig in sports. You gotta think like Eiinstein with 300 pounders coming at you. Sorry, I grew up with Joe Namath. Knees only last so long, though the surgery's a lot better but tear an ACL and you're out a season.
@@user-Calrulk55
Payton and Russ were never gonna work, now I’m not sure if Russ Is gonna have a lot of teams for him.
The good ol boys going to stick together let’s not forget Sean Payton was coming on Colin show damn near every week Colin ain’t switching up especially when Sean feeding him inside information….all of a sudden Colin don’t like Russell Wilson that’s bullshit
It’s almost as if there friends. Is that a crazy concept for you? Friends?
@@NeonKCit’s almost like Colin was making excuses for Russell Wilson for the last 2 seasons while hes played poorly and telling the world about his “friendship” with Russell and his family the same way he’s doing w/ Payton right now. Russ probably ignored too many of Colin’s texts
Watch the video you guys 😂
@@EcchiweebRuss has been bad for a couple years now and Colin didn’t stop making excuses for him until his apparently “better friend” started kicking his back in publicly 😂😂 nobody is crying, just calling out Colin’s weasel like behavior
Was Sean the reason the team had 5 wins last season? Geno went to basically the same team and they made the playoffs when they missed it the previous season. At what point do you start placing the blame on Russ.The backup gave you the same production as Russ. Geno gave you the same production as Russ, the only difference is it didn't look pretty.
Colin u kissin major ass from Sean but russ was ur guy. Just because Sean doesn't think it's a fit doesn't mean you have to crucify russ. You can bring one up without bringing the other down
“Russ is such a humble good guy”
**proceeds to demand an office and personal parking spots when gettin signed**
It’s hilarious how society considers being an asshole, yelling & cursing “authentic”
“It’s not like he’s going to be eating at McDonalds…” 😂😂😂 Yes, I’m not going to lose sleep over Wilson’s personal finances.
Trying way to hard to put a positive spin on a known dirty, cheating, vile human being also known as Sean Payton.
I just started watching cowherd this year and I thought it was good but now it's contradictory...now he's seeing flaws that he didn't see during the win streak? He's got as much credibility as Sean Payton right now some between zero and a rat's ass. How is it that these "smart" million dollar GMs don't see what Russ is. He's amazing at making magic happen. He's not a rhythm guy or a timing guy...never has been. Also, if Payton wants to bench Russ for performance then why not just let him rip on the field where it should then be obvious if he fails. When you run for 3 yards on 1st and 2nd down or call a screen then your offense is predictable. I felt Stidham had much more varied play calls and he was almost a disaster. It's probably hard to be a talking head as you have to be nice to guy's like Payton if you want them to talk to you. Other than Brees who has he been successful with? Go ahead look up the stats up Winston and Bridgewater...they have a couple of good games followed by lots of awfulness with much superior offensive weapons than the Broncos have. Good luck drafting the next Drew Brees.
You sound like someone who has been watching the broncos all year. There is a mean case of revisionist history going on in Payton's favor and to Russ' detriment. I saw one comment saying Russ was a glorified Trent Dilfer
Russ had 2 years to cook. He served up 10 wins, 19 losses, 19 ppg average and zero playoff appearance. It's Over.
If Russ was a better QB we would have been destroying teams during the win streak. The defense was getting TOs in great field position and Wilson was doing barely anything with it.
People need to stop with the TD/INT stat because that's all they go off of. No other offensive stats, time of possession, yards per drive, passing yards per play, etc. Wilson was average at best outside of a lucky scramble thow up to Sutton to make some miracle grab.
There is no sustaining the style of play Wilson needs to be able to help you win games.
Period.
Is Russel total trash, no. Was he the long term answer in Denver, HELL NO.
Im hoping this cap hit forces the organization to FINALLY rebuild. A true rebuild. Not a reboot, retool, re-fucking-anything.
Trade Surtain, move up in the draft, gimme MPJ. Stiddy starts while MPJ gets up to NFL speed and we roll with him.
@@SkunkLifeMedia They wouldn't have started the season in another 0-3 hole. That's your problem Lady. Because then wouldn't need a 5 game Win streak just to get to .500 .
this team is the panthers without Russ. ..Denver should wait until the following draft when they'll be in play for the 1st pick in the draft. The leading rusher had 3 touch downs...you aren't winning jack with 3TD's. You could tell the other team your plays and you should still have more than 3 TD's out of your leading rusher.
I don’t see any QB performing at a championship level with that offense.
What pisses me off is that Payton knew who Wilson was before he chose to go to Denver.
The offense sucked because Russell Wilson couldn’t run it. Duh
Cowherd said Wilson would never make it in the NFL. So much for his take on Russ. And who’s this other guy?
Has anyone also noticed that white commentators support the coach, which black commentators take the side of Russell. Good ol America
Sean Peyton disrespected Russell Wilson on National TV something he never would have done to any of his other QBs no matter how irritated he was, i.e. Drew Brees or any other QB that would not taken that from him. But hopefully after all of this Sean will get what he wants bc Russell will definitely be OK
I watched Trent Dilfer go at one of his coaches way worse. Wilson made what like 15 million per win in Denver? I think he made out good getting yelled at. He's lucky that his teammates didn't do the same every week out there. In all of sports I can count on one hand how many times someone was paid this much and produced so little. Payton can eventually get fired too and he doesn't want Wilson there. If Wilson had of played just good football then no one would be talking about any of this. Seattle was Oh soooo Right and as A Broncos fan it's embarrassing and frustrating as a S.O. B!!!!!!! So maybe he was wrong yelling at him but who cares? He's making 30 sum million a year!!!!! I can't feel sympathy for him. Sorry Russell
Russ is distracted because he has businesses and a family?! 😂😂😂 leave the BS in 2023. Please
Context matters. Denver thought they were getting Rodgers, then felt forced to get Russ. Russ is at fault for wanting more recognition as a qb than he deserved. But Russ was never a West Coast timing qb. He was never going to work with Hackett and Payton. Btw Payton is so overrated that it's comical now. In 6 of his 9 playoff losses, this "offensive guru" averaged 19 pts per game.
And that's the problem just watch the process unfold
They should be a good match. In Russell's 2 years with the Broncos, he's averaged 19 ppg too.
And yet he managed to get a winning season with Jameis, Taysom Hill, a rookie, and Trevor Siemian, and owned Brady-led teams. Has a Super Bowl ring in which they beat the Brett Favre Vikings and then the Colts. Is Aaron Rodgers overrated? What has he done since winning in 2010? Mike McCarthy? Marv Levy? Here's a little secret: in the playoffs you play good teams. Shhh...don't tell anyone.
@MikeC_337 Dirk Koeter also had a winning record with Winston, and he's a well-respected vet with talent. Brady and Payton are 3-3 head to head with Brady winning the playoff game. Makes sense since the false offensive guru could only muster up 20 pts. Btw which playoff loss was worse for Payton with his hof qb Brees? Against Rex Grossman or Case Keenan?
Once upon a time Colin was a Russ apologist. It’s amazing how time flies.
Because Sean Payton his butt buddy n he can’t say anything bad about Payton or he won’t come on his show anymore
No worries, there still seems to plenty of Russ apologists (ie old Seahawks fans) remaining.
Colin is a crony for Sean Payton
Colin , long time listener and watcher of the “The Herd” mostly listener since I had to cut my cable last year
By the way thanks for your “ Blazing 5 “ yesterday , I didn’t touch the Seahawks and took Indy on the money line 🎉
Happy new year from Vegas , I still remember you from Channel 3 , back in the old days…. Anyway big fan and I’m glad you started a TH-cam podcast !!! 🎊
Russell Wilson definitely lacks elite Qb skils, but Sean Payton shouldn't be coaching any NFL team after his suspension while coaching the Saints. Once a thug, always a thug.
So what if Russ's team leaked what Sean said...and that he was blackmailed to change his contract or benched.
@cathy EXACTLY
Hey Colin hope you and your family had a Great Christmas and New Year's. I'm a professional golfer from Carlsbad California but I lived in Littleton Colorado for almost 15 years. I've got many friends in the NFL retired and playing still in Denver. Here's what no one will say as it's taboo to say. They NFL locker room has a ton of guys with Faith but they don't go overboard with it like Russ has especially when he got to the Broncos. He comes across to A LOT of players as fake, non genuine, they look at him like Joel Olsteen in fact that's a nickname he has Russ Olsteen. The other thing is as a professional athlete which I've known now for over 20 years is hold yourself accountable and if things aren't going well be authentic with that don't act like everything is fine when the mast on your boat is under water. I've followed you your whole TV career to when you worked with Michelle Beatle. Literally my whole adult life and I will say you've helped my thought process in life and especially in negotiations so Thank You from the bottom of my Heart thank you Colin. You like overcoming adversity stories with athletes well I'm the one you're talking about and I can't wait next year to meet you in Cali. My story is one of a kind and I should be dead right now but instead I'm getting ready to train for the PGA Tour and Champions Tour . Keep jmac in line and tell him to stop talking about tank tops and his guns. Lol. Keep making us smarter and luv Greg Cosell. Be blessed my friend, Ted Davidson Golf.
Denver sports fan heer - I agree 100%, Russ comes across as fake in his endless optimism, endless self-promotion, $25M home purchase, just his overall persona of celebrity. And his endless god promotion thing. But most of all - he does not win, he did not elevate the Broncos at par with his cost. Hacket was an unqualified bust - but he also did not have much to work with in Russ. The biggest flop it seems to me, is George Paton. His expensive gambles were flops (Hacket, Wilson and Gregory). He was no upgrade to Elway as far as trades and drafts. And for those who have not yet really taken the time to listen - listen to Russ when he speaks. He absolutely says nothing of value, all platitudes and empty optimism.
What y’all are saying is pretty true. I’m surprised they weren’t trying to make changes after his first season with them
It's true Russ wasn't living up to his end of the bargain Payton was brought in to help fix the mess the previous ownership made. I think Russ lived in Colorado less than 15 months got paid over 100 million.
Complete Bullshit‼️ The man had the identical stats of all the Top QB’s in the NFL this year. What the Broncos and Sean Payton did to him is complete racist, and abuse of power. PERIOD‼️💯💯
And Payton held up his end of the bargain getting 70 pts put on him? Lol
@@drdantedaniel GARBAGE‼️🗑️💯💯
I’m fine with the Broncos wanting to move off of Wilson, but all of these people like the guy on this segment wearing the 3 and Out baseball cap 🧢 says Russell wasn’t living up to his contract, I wonder how all of the people with this same take would feel if their employer asked them to drop their benefits and take a pay cut at their jobs.
Russell Wilson isn't a pocket QB. The man makes better plays outside of the pocket by extending the play.
1st amendment, freedom of speech,
Collin is simping hard for Sean Peyton.
When Russ went off the rookie contract, the Hawks fell off a cliff. Pete saw it coming.
Well said guys... appreciate the truth spoken here.
You never give up someone like Surtain who hasn’t even hit his prime
Colin is carrying water for Sean Payton
When they were good, he did what he does, middle of the pack passing top TDs, that is who he always has been. His problem was he is getting paid too much and at his age he is not going to get better as he sucks up more cap. Flaco is a better QB and I assume will cost less is one alternative.
We just tried him in 2019 and it did not work.
You do realize the only reason Flacco is doing well is because he has the best offensive line in the NFL. Flacco has had numerous amount of bad games since his last year in Baltimore. Flacco was totally trash when he was playing for the Broncos. Flacco is doing great for the Browns, but let’s not make it out like he’s the second coming of Peyton Manning. Flacco will play like crap again next season when he’s on another team with an average line and his statue like movements can get him out of harms way.
In other words, the Denver Broncos suck.
Here's the thing that no one's talking about. Russell Wilson is a great QB if you're paying him 10 million a year. And he's an awful QB if you're paying him 40. It's that simple. A 40 million dollar QB has to be able to carry an average team because the salary cap doesn't allow you to have both. On the other hand, a 10 million dollar QB allows you to build a good team around him.
Russ would have been insane to give up the injury guarantee. But if he plans on playing next year or the year after, he will be making much less.
They are really reaching to qualify why they should move on from Russ..."He's small...its hard to see...." May have been an interesting take before he was drafted, not after 9 Pro Bowls and a SB win. He can play....also, if Sean is such a great coach, isnt his job to take the personnel he has and make the most out of it. Tomlin has had Pickett, Rudolph, and Trubiski at the helm and still mustered up a winning season....
What no one is pointing out, is that Stidham’s stat line is similar to Russ’s stats per game. Basically, Russ is being paid $250 million to perform like a $10 million backup QB
😂😂 REALLY??? NAH
You are comparing stidhams game vs a team that is aiming for a better draft pick??????? Compare Russ stats for the season vs the other top QBs then let us know where he stands
Stidham almost put some more broncos on IR with some hospital balls he threw@@isaiahakaic6386
Thanks for the analysis past the injury clause. As a general fan it's not easy to see what's been wrong with his play as his stats seem pretty good.
If this kind of stuff happens all the time, why do we usually hear so little about it.? Answer: because smart coaches, who are decent human beings keep it in house. When Payton went "Bobby Knight" on Russ, he threw that out the window. Payton lost his composure and created this nightmare. Fans are not being protective of how Russ played, but how he's been treated. Payton needs to man up and apologize.
Love these coaches who have hall of fame QBs and everyone talks how great they are. But the only coach who done something without a hall of fame QB is The Harbaughs and Andy Reid. Every other coach was average to below average without a hall of fame QB this includes Sean Payton. Just look around the league at these supposed genius coaches they all get fired after losing their QB including Bill so for me Payton can suck it. Let’s not forget coaches get guaranteed contracts and players dont
Wow you guys thanks for your inspiration and fun..learned a lot Cheers:) Dan
Colin loves Payton . I wonder if he offered his daughter to him like he did for tre lance. Cowherd is too biased . Whoever his daughter Liv cowherd sucked off he is going to be a fan of. It’s so weird .
He says the same thing about the Raiders
I am so glad to hear somebody in the national media. That is saying the correct things. As a broncos fan, it has been incredibly hard to watch football this season even when we were winning. Thank you.
The problem with the broncos is the coach NOT the QB
Russ can't even run an RPO. He'sslow physically & mentally
@@christianthomas1877then why were they worst last year with the same qb?
Flip Flop Colin and this casual minion.
Russ needs to find a place that wants him. He is a superbowl winner. His personality does not fit well with Sean P. The screaming at him on the sideline was disrespectful.
Average player getting paid like an elite guy, hmm. I wonder where this puts Arron Rodgers??? 🤔
These guys always compare these dorks to Drew Brees...just because a guy is the same height and weight as somebody it doesn't mean they are going to have the same career as Drew Brees, a 1st ballot hall of famer.
You guys compared russ to brees years ago and now you're doing the same with some college kid who hasn't played a down in the NFL, be better Cowherd!
100% degree. So every year drew brees was in the league they won a ring? Stats don't tell all the story but a good portion. Russ statistically was one of top five quarterbacks this year and went on a 5 game winning streak. This isn't business maybe some but more personal. Sean Payton should be ashamed of himself how he handle this situation. Then you blasted him on national television like all I can say is Sean got the right one. I hope Russ goes to another team and wins period!!
What about the ROI on Sean Payton? The defense is ranked 30th out of 32 teams!!!! Looks like Sean is more overpaid than Russ if you want to look at results. The OCs getting fired, who hired the OCs in the first place? Not Russ. Defensive coordinators were fired too while he was in Seattle, maybe management doesn’t know how to hire correctly.
The whole issue is Peyton totally disrespected Russell since he been there. He's not a good coach anyway and the Broncos will find out
Look at Russ before Sean Peyton got there.
The end happened the spring of 2023 when the Broncos signed Mike McGlinchey to shore up right tackle. The only problem with that is that McGlinchey had been unceremoniously dumped by San Francisco because his pass protection is atrocious, and that's what Denver got. Denver STILL labors under the misperception that consistently poor pass protection is "good enough" for a really talented QB.
Hey Colin Sean isn’t so great. It’s not just that he only won the one SB with Brees all those years…it’s that he only made it to one SB too. With no Brady and Manning to have to get through
Yeah well if someone suddenly asked you to give up over 30 million at your job you wouldn't be to happy. Especially after they ask you in the locker room after a win . That's crazy . You call that professional . Kudos to Russell for even showing up in the building . I would have gave them the finger and took my money . Pretty much what car did . Make them release you so you go were you want with out the team negotiating his contract and getting a trade out of it . Make them release you keep your money and get paid again . The fact that Sean Payton stood up there and said him yelling at Russell wasn't personal yet it was shows you what a deceitful guy Sean is . This is the same guy who got suspended from the league for over a year paying off players to injure others . Crazy . Dam Crazy .
Russ head back home to Seattle, call up Derrick Henry and go win the NFC West next Fall!
Bullshit!! They asked him to take a pay cut after they beat the Chiefs and he won 3 more games after that!! Stop hating on Russ!!
Small kids and a lot of businesses, so drew Brees had all the same stuff going. Throwing the ball the down field come on, drew only completed 11 passes over 30 yards his last 3 years, so what was Sean really use to again 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
You guys are really on one because you think this man should take a pay cut for what? Sean Patton will not make this team better!
Loss so much respect from you collinsworth!!!
I listened for 1 minute. No friend of Sean Peyton is anyone I want to listen to. His sideline rant alone at Russ was unacceptable, and disgusting.
Nearly 30 tds with 8 picks and 98 qbr
Funny how they will jump on the Russ bandwagon when he goes to another team and starts winning.
Well, there's always baseball for Russ???
CC has been really spot on on his takes in recent years
