I'm excited to see him throw to the better 14 in the black and gold. Pickens about to be a top 10 WR this year.
@@ZacheryZimmerman-uk4ti yup
Imma like and subscribe to make it worth your effort
You are incredibly adept at film evaluation and communicating it to the layperson. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks Greg!
Well put you ain’t lyin

You calling’ me a layperson?
Honestly, any Steelers fan who was wide awake the last 2 seasons knows the deep ball accuracy Wilson brings is a HUGE upgrade. I watched quite a bit of other channels that do film analysis, and the one thing that stood out for me was that the mistakes Pickett made were not what NFL caliber QBs should be making after 2 years. Accuracy was one of the big ones! As a very dedicated Steelers fan, I don't care how old Wilson is - this really was the best option to get past problems RIGHT NOW!!
No doubt let's hope Fields can learn from Russ about reading defenses. Gonna be a interesting season.
The manner in which he conducts himself is remarkable. I wish I had noticed it during his time with the Seahawks or Broncos, but my attention was solely on the Steelers.
I think Russ will be in Pittsburgh for 3 or 4 years easily as he is far from done! This should be a whole lot of fun watching Russ with Artie's power run game and the play action that comes off of it! As the scouts said in the baseball movie The Rookie about the late 30's year old pitcher trying out, "Ain't nothing wrong with that one right there after he threw a 97 mph pitch", Russ still has a cannon!
10 minutes in and I don’t think Kenny Pickett could make any of these throws
Had questions about Wilson, thanks for some answers. Go Steelers!
The Calvin Arc .. brought to you by Russell Wilson .. Let's Go
You’re so goddamn good at this bro. Fantastic video, DB.
Day one supporter. Love brother.
Best film guy on the tube.
Very kind ❤
That was a spectacular film work you did on him and his game. Perfect and perfection.
Thank you!
On Wilson as the QB in Pittsburgh. "Temper the expectations" is the best advice that I've heard so far on him. Thank you for the advice and the video.
Always bring elite breakdown of tape. A good OC will play to his strengths and mask the weaknesses. I'm hopeful. Appreciate you as always, man!
Thank you 💛
Seahawks fan here Russ has the ability to throw over the middle of the field but he's played in a Pete Carroll offense who priotize keeping the ball safe. Not saying the guy is Drew Brees but I think he's just conditioned to protect the ball and when you have a great defense you should abosulutly do that. A big thing I think Denver reciever struggled with was the scramble drill stuff it felt like they never were on the same page. Meanwhile you hear Dk talk and if he's running a route he knows at some point to just go get open. It would help if the steelers could bring someone he had some form of trust level and chemistry in. Some names that could be good for this as a WR3 or WR4 David Moore, Malik Turner, and Freddie Swain.
Yeah exactly what I’ve been thinking with the middle throw criticism. Most interceptions happen over the middle and Russ only had 8 interceptions all season. There’s a clear correlation
That was what Ben had with Ward and then Brown. Those guys knew that after a few seconds, they had to turn around and run back to the QB.
RUSSELL & PITTSBURGH
GAMES ON !!
GAME ON!
CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH!!
i was waiting for this film room! here we go...
Thank you!
I really hope it works out for Russ. Seeing a guy with that much talent go out because of things that should be fixable with the taking sacks. Someone has to be able to coach that out of him. Russ deep ball is honestly legendary. He’s good enough to win the Super Bowl if you can get him to stop taking dumb sacks.
I gotta say you showed both the good and bad, and why. And that's a good thing. Good job.
You know how we do it here!
Loved Russ since College ♥️ besides rings 💍 i had him right up there skill wise with Brady. Brady 1, Wilson,2, Rogers 3. Now Mahomes that guy.
Absolutely Great job dissecting Russels play and way of his game!!! This makes me so confident in his experience there in Pittsburgh bro!!! Wow!!!! 🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥
Great breakdown!!! Can't wait for the next!!
💛
YEAAAAA !!!! STAIRWAY TO" 7 " BABY!!!!! LETS GO STEELERS !!!!!
Thank you! I appreciate this!! 🏈🖤💛🏈
You are welcome :)
Great video and analysis, I’m super hyped to see him in action
Thanks Derek - just what we asked for, and so timely! Assuming the Steelers draft a QB in a later round, they will be paying the QB room less than 5 million…with cap space enough to sign an elite LB - Queen. Wilson is quite a bargain for 2024, and he’s already reaping benefits beyond his position. Thanks for the balanced presentation.
Love!
Late to this but Iv'e been watching too much draft tape to catch up on Russ tape yet. You're the goat! Look forward to talking draft prospects.
Appreciate you !
You see the speed on that deep ball wr super fast and he threw that ball to the back of the end zone from the 50 when the receiver was already at the 10-yard line the speed of the ball got there before the receiver got to the back of the end zone
Marvin mims… someone I loved coming out.
So be prepared for a rough start gang, all of this working is contingent on stellar line play and the Steelers will have a new center. New OC, New QB, New Center.
This is a great film breakdown, excited to see Russ in black and gold!!!
Wow!! Great video, dude!
I'm certainly no expert, but your film evaluation is phenomenal. You really seem to know your stuff.
I definitely have a much better idea of what to expect from Russell Wilson this season.
As a Steelers fan myself, I hope the Steelers try to build the offense around his strengths, and minimize the weaknesses as much as possible. Trying to change the way he plays would most likely not work at this point in his career.
I'm very hopeful that our offense is going to be significantly improved from last season. The defense should be fantastic. Love the addition of Patrick Queen. Getting Jackson and Elliott were good pickups, as well.
Let's Go Steelers!!! 🏈🏆
Thanks for the excellent video! 👍
Thank you so much for the feedback 💛
Russ is gonna have to tweak his game a little bit in regards to getting the ball out of his hands quicker and using the middle of the field.
This is prolly his last chance as a starter so I hope to see it
@@Steelers_DB How would you feel about the Steelers getting Willie Gay Jr. and Justin Simmons for secondary help? Hahaha!
Hey DB I look at it like this. They signed him cheap so they can still add a ton in free agency and continue to surround talent and upgrade positions. Also if he brings the production he had a season ago to Pittsburgh with the defense they have they can make a playoff run. Russ not using the middle is concerning but I think that can be improved. I see it as a no risk high reward scenario. He could be the perfect bridge until we find a young guy in the draft.
Not sure how much he can improve that at this point in his career but I believe they can work around it with setting up the timing to attack it. Either way I believe they’ll make it work
@@DeCurtaRican yeah but he isn’t really that Russ anymore. He’s trying to regain that ability.
@@s.i.rschwertz9154 That's just it. Does anyone think Sean Payton didn't _try?_ Payton doesn't take to losing. so for him to try & tell his employers to eat that much $ is a big kick in his ego as well. I'm not saying he's perfect. He _did do_ a little of that impatient parent thing & call plays designed to force Russ to have to change, which isn't the same thing as helping him achieve it. I imagine having not had this problem with Brees didn't make him patient.
But the fact is we Have Footage Of Russ looking at the ground &/or away from receivers in the middle of the field or heading there & I *guarantee you* those things weren't Payton's doing. Now here's a chunk I don't expect anyone here to know.
Russ has led the NFL in passes behind the line of scrimmage for *five straight years.* He's also been bottom or near it in explosive plays.
The two are connected. Everything came to a head in Denver because I think Carroll was aware of the problems for a _LONG_ time & kept them hidden so very well, but either Russ wasn't aware of this or he didn't want to tell anyone in Denver about it. The lack of explosive plays are *because* he chucks it behind the LOS so often. He does this so often because when in the pocket, he _can't see_ over the o-line.
What it leads to is plays 4 yards or less very often on 1st & 2nd downs. This makes 3rd & long which defenses know is a pass. So Russ' weaknesses are sustaining drives. Many of his TDs last season came off of short fields caused by the defense getting TOs.
So while he has the élite talent for the long ball, he can't get to mid-field. All his success is dependent on starting on the other side of the field.
That a _HUGE_ problem. Yeah, he & Pickens likely can connect on those long plays. Now tell me what team in this division you think is going to give up 5 or more of those a game? In order to get this to work with Russ, Smith is gonna have to be patient & not handle him like a veteran. He has to force-feed him *nothing but* plays that _require him_ to throw over the middle, then figure out what facets of those plays he can tweak better or not.
But to be perfectly honest, I don't think it's gonna work. It feels like Russ again is unaware what the problem is or refuses to discuss it, & the coaches are afraid to push him. Out of respect, sure. But maybe Russ _needs_ a swift kick in the butt?
Some people do better when someone else takes control.
Man, EXCELLENT video! Exactly what I was looking for on Russ: how is he (at this age) in the structure of the offense? How does he fit in Smiths style of offense. As always, job well done!
That was the goal. So glad you liked it.
Thanks for pulling this together
Thank you!
I was a Seattle fan starting in 2012 watching football again after living out of country. Those were great years watching Russ and all Seahawks players. When Russ went to Broncos I watched and started rooting for several teams whose quarterbacks got traded and excelled again. Unfortunately Broncos are plagued with issues for years now, like other teams that release people every year with no gelling into a team.
I will be rooting for Steelers and Russ this year. As well as other teams. Its fun to have several favorites!
solid work as always... i'll be forwarding this to friends
Real one!
I think a lot of times the reason why Russell Wilson moves around in the pocket so much is because he can’t see over the lineman in front of him. I think people have to remember that he is 511 and most offensive lineman and defensive lineman are over 6 ft
That’s exactly why he doesn’t throw to the middle much
Thanks for your hard work and getting this oit to us. Props
Appreciate you watching
best film analyst guy there is, thank god he covers my steelers!
Great in-depth video
great job as always.. Your knowledge is through the roof. Love the passion
Right on. Appreciate the break down👍
Thank ya
Great vid as always keep it up!!!
Thank you!
excellent video analysis.
💛
Nice break down keep it up 💪
This is what all the naysayers and doubters: Nick at first take, Shannon, Acho, etc.. are missing: Russ simply makes throws that our previous QBs for the past 2 to 3 years could NOT or would NOT make. Watch Pickens explode in this offense and watch what this does for the running game, with defenses knowing that can't load up in the box to negate Harris or Warren.
Really good video, your point on about Russ
I'm excited about him in a Steeler offense because I think the Steelers will work with his strength. It will be a plan in place for him. He has Pickens and Jefferson.
He has a great running game, and he can move the chains. I still think he could move an offense.
Excellent review.
💛
Great stuff as always man! I see the draft going WR, C, SS/slot corner. What do you think?
Great breakdown
Thank you!!
The one, and only advantage Russel Wilson has today is his long-ball. But that pre-supposes that the Steelers will be able to fix the O-line for Wilson to be able to throw it.
He is still a better scrambler then #7,#8, were. And, he happens to throw the ball well on the run.
But your are the man when it comes to film breakdown
Youre very knowledgeable with this stuff
Appreciate ya
The Steelers were 28th in offensive scoring with 17.9 points per game and the Defense was 6th in Scoring with 19.1. Russel Wilson will improve to scoring offense by a TD per game at a minimum to 25 points per game, which will make them 8th in the NFL i.a.w 2023 ranking. So, a Top 10 Defense with a Top 10 Offense. I can see the Steelers in the AFC Championship in 2024.
I’m not sure they’ll get that high but an above average offense even would be light years ahead of where they’ve been
@@Steelers_DB*Give the Steelers their respect with the playoff appearance, 10 win season considering the circumstances. That being Matt Canada and the young QB, leading the 3rd youngest Offense in the NFL. Reason being is TALENT. The Steelers have a "Top5 Roster" FACTS*/
@natetewkesbury A touchdown more per game at 25.0 points per game is a massive point improvement to the point of never scoring under 20 in most games. I don't see that, but I do see them finishing somewhere in the 21.0 to 22.0 point per game range which is still a big improvement.
I like your wordplay in the title: DANGERUSS
I like the breakdown... It made me feel a little bit better about Mr. Unlimited 🙃
Good stuff DB
❤
You did a great job of breaking this down, but I would be lying if I said that it doesn't worry me how many of these where he skipped his first read that was open and then had to make a great throw down field instead. You did a wonderful job of highlighting how great those throws were, but he's the one forcing himself to make those great throws instead of taking the easier completion(in many cases to the same receiver earlier) and letting them work in the open field.
Thanks DB, you should be working for some front office in NFL.
Nice film room
Thank you!!
Steel Danger Russ! With our evolving elite defense and Russ we have a fighting chance against the best competition. The great hands and size of Pickens and Freiermuth should help Russ feel more comfortable throwing into tight windows. We've got a couple 4.3 WR's now who should be able to extend the defense too!
One thing he was great at that I didn't see being utilized is in the RPO
@@DeCurtaRican Ah yes, thank you. I mean the read option.
Hell yea
❤
“Let Russel cook” is euphemism for “He can’t run the play.” Look at how many of those throws are off schedule. He has a great arm, but he makes bad reads and miss open receivers. He is worth what you paid him. Good luck Stealers.
Smith likes those sail routes to the outside too. Should be nice for Russ.
I bet George Pickens is salivating to get on the field and catching some passes from Russell Wilson.
Who Ride???? We Ride!!! made it to three minutes--I don't need the all 22-44-66 but solid efforts
Russ and pickens could be huge im hyped af havnt had a qb like rhis since ben we got this
I really don’t understand the narrative that “Russel was so bad that Broncos would rather pay him rather than be on the team” they were the one of hottest teams last year coming from 1-5 to 6-5 when they tried to renegotiate the contract idc who you are that would take the wind out of anyone’s sails. Are yall seriously going to argue that if Mahomes started playing badly after KC asked him to lower his salary is somehow indicative of Mahomes being washed???
Yeah there's no competition kp can't do anything close to that
Russ + Queen = Superbowl
We still need a second corner and a C
Always remember it takes a whole team to win!
Your football IQ is nice great analysis bro let's hope russ has something to prove with a chip on his shoulder after seeing how denver treated him 💯
Thank you
GP Will be unstoppable
Folks don't remember big Ben and Russell basically play the same way. Both prolong plays and both throw the deep ball at a top tier level. Tomlin loves Russell. As long as Russ stays healthy we got our qb for the next 5-7 years.
At least 3-4 but I could see more. Crazy to think that we went from a QB with 8.5'" hands to a guy with 10.5" hands. Weather will not be any issue for Russ in the AFCN!
Russ, still got it!😂
I doubt that our current line can provide that much time in the pocket. So his out of scheme play will come into use with us heavy.
There's still a lot of time to improve the line in FA and the draft.
Hope so. Still got work to do up front
@@Apollocreed2076 oh I know I was just waking up when I made the captain obvious comment. But man 6 seconds seems impossible for us RN maybe squeeze out 4 with current situation
This is random, but I wish madden would watch things like this and observe how players, especially the O- line, react to things
DB I really think Payton wanted him to fail because Russ had 11 TDs and 0 INTERCEPTIONS when using play action with a passer rating of 118. Payton knew this and would not call plays to his QBs strength. Hmmm
22nd in usage is weird and not a good idea w Russ.
Absolutely the truth...Bronco fan here. Payton did not play to Russ's strengths. Not much play action and very little RP0"s. Payton's ego got the best of him!
'
One thing about QBs they love a offensive line they can trust and a open receiver.
I can see Kenny learning so much from Russ and taking off in a year or 2
Russ 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Unlimited
So, who are you sending out of the tunnel week 1 Derick Wilson or Fields? Im genuinely curious, not a loaded question.
It’s gonna be Russ. I’m just hoping that one of the two are substantial upgrades over the past couple years.
There’s a vid on Fields if you’re interested in that.
Go Steelers
The Steelers needs to draft Joe Milton iii as a contingency plan and learn under him too
💪🏾
What if dk Metcalf showed up in Pittsburgh. Superbowl here we come.
Sp was fussing at Russ, but he didn't have enough talent on that team off the plays he was calling. Denver will be in football purgatory for a while. Russ can still ball watch and see him in Pittsburgh
Hope so
If you want to win some playoff games, and maybe the AFC, go out and get Tyler Lockett!
Justin Fields is a hidden Gem. He will take over the QB1 position before the end of the year
Calvin Austin III should benefit greatly.
Speaking as a small piece of Steelers Nation 😮 with Russ AFC is in trouble
Hope so
We need JPJ but if he's off the board grab a corner then Frazier with the 51st would be nice
George Pickens is gonna eat good this year
That’s who benefits the most from this move.
I am
I can’t believe folks are asking will he be the starter 🤦🏽♂️ DangerRuss is still better than.. nvm lol
It's bc he short can't really see over the line.
Offensive side was never considered dangerous to begin with. Possibly we can have a good offence. I do beleive russ just needs a fresh start withoit that power teipping sean payton. That guy scares me. Imsgine if he was a cop andnin a bad mood. Thays the way i see him coaching.
Yup KP is getting Dogg walked
