Broncos country !!! Let’s cry …..
😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Been saying this since the moment it was clear that this wasn't working. Wild it came full circle
Teams lose QB's everyday 🅱️ .. you'll be aiight, U tuff
That's a serious indictment towards Russell Wilson. For a team to take a damn near 100 million dollar cap hit to get rid of him
when russ thanked the girls for the jam i lost it lmao
IDK, I still think the Browns deal with Watson tops this.
Yeah. Even if the browns keep Watson through the rest of his deal it’s still a worse trade
100%
and as a Texan fan i am SOOOOOO happy Cleveland was that stoooopid.
Lol FACTS 😂 Texans have payoff win, browns have injures sex predator😂
Facts
Brandon Perna is in shambles right now
Who??
@@EllensCabinets14k Brandon Perna
This is my new, new, new, new, new, new favorite comment
@@PhantomPhaze who??
Who tf cares....
When you own Walmart, you don't care about any amount of debt 😂. They made 85 million today lol
Cap space dummy
Walmart also owns the nuggets and avalanche. Who have both won their championships recently. Walmart is chilling. The nuggets and avs are both at the top of their divisions
@@imanoldurango8213 Stan Kroenke doesn’t own Walmart. 😂😂😂
Closer to $500 million 😂
@IvanAldaz that's just the profit they pay taxes on. Not even the land value increases. Other purchases to offset that income.
Crazy money. 85 million is front pocket money
It’s sad when a team is willing to piss away 85 million to not have you play for their team…
I doubt you know NFL contracts, salaries, and salary cap works.
Would you rather take the $85 million dollars hit?
Or the $235 million dollar hit?
Not any NFL owner/general manager in their right mind is going to trade for and assume that massive contract for how Russell "Prostitute" Wilson has played for the past few seasons.
Nobody is going to trade for him. Therefore, the next logical thing to do is count your losses and eat the horrible investment.
🤣😂🤣😂
YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT WRONG, DON'T BE A DUMMY...FANS I NO LONGER WANT TO HEAR ANY NFL TEAM OR IT'S FANS GETTING MAD BECAUSE A PLAYER WON'T TAKE A SO-CALLED HOMETOWN DISCOUNT!!!! YOU SEE TEAMS CAN FIND MONEY WHENEVER THEY WANT BUT THE FANS ARE SO STUPID ASKING MILLIONAIRES TO TAKE LESS MONEY FROM BILLIONAIRES. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME A TEAM GAVE THE FAN'S A DISCOUNT ON TICKET PRICES, PARKING OR FOOD! $85,000,000 THE BROMCOS JUST PISSED AWAY
He has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. That's why he erased my comment. 🤣😂🤣😂
Walmart owns the Broncos, they have billions of dollars…the equivalent of what they gave Wilson is like us normal folks paying someone 3,000 dollars to go away.
It’s even sadder when teams give these big contracts when the teams have no idea how that player is going to perform with the team.
Drew lock laughing at broncos right now
Facts
Drew Lock is a bum... Noone cares.
@@brad758 he ain’t a bum if he’s still on a team though lol Wilson got cut before he did with Seattle lol
Lock under Payton would have been very interesting. Kid just needs competent, consistent coaching.
What...from the bench in Seattle?
The mistake was giving him that big contract in the first place.
He kinda deserved a big contract
Who thought Russ would stink it up like he did?
@@timkinley1779Who thought Peyton would stink it up 😭🦨
@@timkinley1779I did lol
@@timkinley1779 Russ was coming off his worst season ever in Seattle., The writing was on the wall, so it was easy to see the decline in play. The Broncos panicked because Rodgers did not choose them.
Broncos Country, You're Fired!!
Hey Pat... Thank the broncos MANAGEMENT for his contract. Remember they made up the contract and Russell Wilson just signed it. Russell Wilson did not negotiate anything on this contract, they offered it and Russell signed it...
People saying Seattle won but I think genuinely both teams lost lol. Broncos imploded with 85 mil dead cap and Seattle fired but didn’t fire but fired Pete Carroll and they don’t have a qb anymore
Yeah both teams lost. They basically had the same record last season
Seattle can sign him right now, you know.
Seattle had 2 winning seasons in a row. Made the playoffs one of those years. They are fine.
If we’ve learned one thing from this whole ordeal, the Broncos new ownership doesn’t know squat about football and are about to run that franchise into the ground.
From Las Animas Colorado...Unfortunately...sadly... I agree..
If the mock drafts are accurate and the Broncos end up selecting JJ McCarthy, I don’t see how that helps them get past Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert within the division……
I don’t know if I’d go that far with it. The new ownership isn’t so involved in the day to day a la Dan Snyder, but I do think this will be a learning lesson for them that you can’t just dump money into it and have instant success. Tepper hasn’t learned that despite repeated instances, I think the Bronco’s ownership group is a little bit more level-headed than that.
But only time will tell.
One little problem with your point -- the Broncos new ownership _wasn't_ the one that traded for Wilson or offered him that contract. Nor were they the ones who hired Hackett. A case can be made that they inherited a bad situation and have at least taken steps to turn it around.
Wouldn’t be the first time. Peep their history.
As a Broncos fan, he’s probably going to go to the Raiders and kick our ass.
I hope so
0-8 against the raiders since 2020.
I don't know why he'd play. He can't make any additional money by playing.
@@Jordan-Ramsesgonna be more a revenge tour against the Broncos than anything else.
raiders w Maxx Crosby 2024 DPOY 😈
I think the 49'ers QB situation was worse , they could have had Tom brady 4 times and passed, they could have had Aaron Rodgers 2 times and they passed, Alex Smith,
I think the Herschel Walker trade may have been worse.
Russell can finally call himself “King Russell” and it be a legit reference😩. King Russell,… King of the Dead Cap!😮
85 million dead cap smh. That’s not gonna help them lol. But it helps Russ lol
It should help them get a top 5 2025 draft pick
I’d rather save 35 million dollars, than a quarter back that is washed
@@Paul-vf2wl were they top 5 worse teams in not sure on that.
@@primerighty8225 I don’t think he’s washed. Just shouldn’t have went to Denver lol.
@@primerighty8225I mean, if you're going to pay him regardless, I would've maybe kept him to train a 1st round pick on the bench. But I'm sure Russell will make drama and complain about that and would probably make more noise
Pat, you guys aren’t talking about Russ being terrible. He may be a cancer in the locker room as well. Carrol kicked him to the curb, Hackett couldn’t do anything with him, and Payton obviously has reached a decision that Russ ain’t it. Especially if Payton is willing to lose that much against the cap.
Dude. Drew Brees had tons of seasons with Payton just like Russ last year with lesser stats. What is the difference between Russell Wilson and Drew Brees? Why is it that Drew Brees can have the exact same season with the exact same coach year after year after year missing the playoffs over and over and still not lose any credibility whatsoever?
LOL at HOF mention. The goal line pick in the SB should be enough to disqualify him!
Wilson has played himself out of hall of fame consideration.That ship has sailed.
Being a part of Broncos Country is the hardest part of my life
Finally someone reports it correctly - over 2 years. Not that it’s less devastating, but imagine having to cram your roster under 150m for 1 year.
The Browns trading for and then signing Watson to that deal is the worst mistake in NFL history. This is not a mistake this is a team taking a huge hit in order to correct an earlier mistake which was acquiring Wilson in the first place.
Yeah I was rooting for you guys as a Bears fan when Baker was there. He was playing through an injury and they just threw him away after taking you guys to the playoffs after a long time. What a shame.
iunno if im high but i love this show more in the offseason than i do during the season lmfao
How is this the most expensive mistake? Didn't Deshaun Watson get more money and play less games than Russ? His contract is fully guaranteed too.
It’s not 😂 just because the browns ride out their contract doesn’t mean their Watson contract isn’t dead cap especially if he gets injured once again this season
I just want to watch him beat Sean Payton.
As a Seahawks fan…..actually I’ll leave it at that. 😅
Same...
Hey don't be too cocky, yall weren't in the playoffs.
So...how many playoff wins do you all have since the trade?
Lol...sounds a little bitter. We, like the Broncos, had a HC issue that we have now sorted out. To answer your question, we have been to the playoffs once and lost since trading RW3. Which is a hell of a lot more recent then the Broncos last appearance in 2015 (although it was a SB win)...before you start comparing SBs, 43-8. @@arkwill14
@@benjaminhutchings5721 pfft....you think a single Super Bowl loss is going to phase Broncos fans? We have 5 of them. A SB loss is sometimes the price of a chance at winning one...something a Seahawks fan, of all people, should know.
He's a competitor; he's crazy accurate with the football, and he has something to prove. He's lost some mobility; so, any team with a decent O-line; in need of a QB would be nuts not to give him a shot. That includes teams that think they have their QB. Some of you may remember his 2012 rookie year. Seattle thought they had their QB. They had just out bid many NFL teams for Matt Flynn, GB's talented back up for Rodgers. They also had Tarvaris Jackson. It was assumed one them would start. Many thought Russ wouldn't even make the 53 man roster.. He beat them both.
Many thought Russ wouldn’t make the 53 yet they wanted to pay him around 25 mil a year
He could crush it in San Francisco.
Russ said more in his goodbye to Denver than he did to Seattle lol
85 mil cap hit is ludicrous! Are we ever going to admit we have a money issue in sports??
Man, that dead-cap hit us equivalent to the salary for two full years of a truly elite quarterback. I don’t see how the Broncos are going to compete until 2026 now. Denver should offer to buy back any season tickets as a mea culpa.
In terms of size is wild….
Cam and MASE
and i thought the eagles taking the cap hit on wentz was gonna suck
Didn't Indy take the cap hit? I think it shifted to the colts, and they might still be paying Wentz
@@JoseRamirez-yh2ll nah i think washington took some sort of a cap hit from indy though
@@pythonl0rd584contradicting yourself on your own comment eh? 😂moron
@@JoseRamirez-yh2llNo. The figure you see is what the Eagles ate on Wentz for the trade. The Colts traded the two picks in exchange for Philly taking the cap hit, which is why both parties made the trade. When Washington traded for Wentz, they took on the contract.
Whew. My Bears were close to making this mistake the year before. Shout out to Carroll for rejecting the offer!
Your bears have 10 wins in the last two seasons and a QB who wants out of there. No QB can fix them
Bears would have given a left nut to have 8 wins this season lol
@@ghostcon fans? Absolutely. But they are mostly idiots lol . I was ok with how it went. I knew they were the 2023 version of the 2022 lions (suck arse first half of season, then improve). But fans forget what rebuilding looks like
How hilarious if he goes back to Seattle 😂
There is no chance Russell suits up for $1-$2 million.
Love It Pat ThePatMcAfeeShow Bro Let's Gooooooooo.
If Belichick was still at the Patriots this would have been a dream story...
I think The Browns are looking at him.
The Browns be the Browns.
Wow that is a giant cap hit 🤯
How do you hire a coach who doesn’t want to work with your $85M QB? Also, why did you pay this QB so much? Can you fire another owner?
Glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t see Russell Wilson as a hall of fame quarterback
Broncos Country: We're dead inside
Lmao. No. We’ve won a SB in the last ten years. 27 other teams haven’t
@@imanoldurango821310 years ago, a Wilson led Seahawks and the lob curb stomped the broncos… which is ironic because now he’s doing it again…
No one is going to play Russ more than his vet min. If some GM is dumb enough to pay him more than 39 million, he should be fired immediately. If Russ asks for more than the vet min from his next team, that should be a gigantic red flag. I can't imagine he'd be that dense, but sometimes I wonder if he's a sociopath who's really good at doing and impression of what a normal person acts like.
RW signing with the Hawks again would be the LOLest LOL in NFL history.
He kills the locker room. Imagine him before a game. That locker room is dead silent.
Russell is still making history 👏 🙌 👌
Didn’t Sean Payton jack up the Saints cap space, before he decided to retire?
What about Deshaun Watson?
Snoop_dogg_WHO?.gif
He should go back to Wisconsin and be Jordan Love's backup.
Unless I misunderstand what the dad cap hit means.. Russ is making 39m next year. If a team pays him 20m he's still making 39m, 20m from new team and 19m from Denver. So if 39 is what he's making regardless, why would he ask the new team for more?
Family Trust Respect! ⚡⚡⚡
I see Russel in Atl. His wife is from there, it's got plenty of roots for them and honestly ATL needs the help.
Nah. It’s still Ryan Leaf. Not only did they get Ryan, but they did not get Peyton. That’s more costly if you think how popular the Chargers would’ve gotten nationally. 😂
I wouldn't sign him he played bad 😢last few years .he thinks hes worth more then he is . this ain't the same guy from sea hawks
Nobody should sign him. He should go away like cam newton
I thought my Texans mistake with Osweiler was bad.
McAfee could’ve had a story regarding Lombardi’s diss towards Antonio Pierce & the “Raider Way” but since Lombardi is a regular on the show, he didn’t even bother addressing it lol smh 🏴☠️
That's not a story... Just a simple fact that a fanatic can't realize 👍
Besides tanking every season to try to get better players only to lose all your star players from the previous year…what culture does the raiders have? Anyone who goes to that team is destined for a potential career ender.
@@Benderstal that’s why we got AP! lol He’s bringing that culture we been lacking !
Instead of getting rid of Russell Wilson, the Broncos should have gotten rid of Joe Lombardi.
I don't understand this release at all...why not let him just play?
Same I don't follow the broncos but have no why they let him go
Because, if he's still on their roster for the new season it kicks in a lot more guaranteed money due to him -- even more than he's already guaranteed.
Lets get one thing straight,
When Wilson was traded from Seattle every one said it was a bad idea because OF THE OFFENSIVE LINE !!
WHAT HAPPENED !!??
Brees first year with S.Payton 26 tds, 11 ints, 96 qbr.
Russ first year with S.Payton 26 tds, 8 ints, 98 qbr.
Russ is a scapegoat. Brees had way more talent around him. R.Bush, J.Graham, J.Horn. Payton is mimicking what J.McDaniels did with the Broncos. J.Cutler and B.Marshall shipped out. Winning requires a team effort. Broncos thought Russ would come in and win with a bunch of losers. Lol
CBS and Tony Romo should bring back AAF , May 2024. Use one hub city and merge with the German Football League.
It needs to be a QB base pay, then bonuses for wins and pts ,yards
Playoffs
Maxx Crosby playing the Broncos 2x a year = 2024 DPOY
Lombardi was ridiculous here. Incentives? Makes no sense.
Funny thing is, George Paton is still employed.
Raiders should sign Wilson, use most of their FA money on the OL, and draft either DL or CB in the draft.
Last year the media was saying the same thing about Deshawn Watson stop the cap.
Wilson was actually a top 10 QB last year. When you get 70 pts put up on you, its not the QB. They definitely paid to much but the defence got smoked.
The BRONCOS should have Interviewed Russell Wilson Ex-Wife before Trading for Him. She would have told them that Russell is a Limp QB.
I remember calling it that signing Russ to that massive extension immediately before he even played a down was a bad idea.
That said though, I don't think anyone was expecting how bad his run would be. I was among the more pessimistic, but I at least thought they'd hold onto him for 3 or 4 years.
That was the type.of deal that comes up during a coke bone. Hadn't even taken a snap
Let’s ride!!!
I remember when Broncos Fan were clowning the Texans for over paying Brock Osweiler
Are we pretending Deshaun Watson do not exist?
My best bro i talk football with all the time is a broncos fan, feel terrible for him haha
Cheers for the picks Denver ❤ Go Hawks 🎉🎉🎉
When speaking of Russel you keep the raiders out your gaht damn mouf.
Love the show guys
The russel deal and the Watson deal are two of the worst business decisions of all time
Pat looking fit. Keep up the great work dad.
When Atlanta said they weren't interested in Lamar, I almost gave them up as my favourite team. If they don't at least talk to Russel, I'm done. Even if they want Cousins, it's not a done deal yet, at least kick the tires to see what Russel wants.
"The Denver Broncos are paying 89 million to play against you. That's what the Denver Broncos think of you."
It goes against the salary cap which is the issue more than the money itself
Omfg sign him as the Chiefs veteran backup for 2 years
Im pretty sure Russ is glad. Just hasnt worked out in Denver its been a horrible stint there. And who knows whats next for the Broncos I dont see them going nowhere to me Russ was never the issue the whole team just sucks.
Pretty sure Russ is cringe af and has ruined his relationships in TWO cities. Plates never talk good about him yet players constantly love baker mayfield 😂😂😂😂😂
Players hate Russ 😂
Would be so cool if Las Vegas had the ability to get Russell and they beat Denver both times next year!
easily the most fascinating free agent qb market in my lifetime
Another correct prediction by us.
Russell Wilson stats in Denver (with Rosburg & Payton)
66% CMP
4001 Total Yards
35 Total TDs
10 INTs
99 Passer Rating
8-9 record in 17 games
If year 1 didn't happen with arguably the worst HC in NFL history, is he even talked about this off-season as someone getting cut??
Broncos NEVER do the correct thing. They have to pay him anyway, and could have gotten something for him, if they were going to eat all that salary. Stupid beyond belief.
Lmao look at all that colts dead cap 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Broncos country lets ride into 87 mill down the toilet hahaha knew it when u singed em haha
Drafting a qb makes the dead cap irrelevant. A drafted qb will be on a roomie contract for four years. Plenty of time to rebuild
Seems like that title might also belong to Sean Payton 👀
Mike doesn’t understand the Raider way…he sucks up to Belicheck and McDaniels now…that’s why all the Lombardi’s have now been fired
No big deal financially to the owners. They’ll just pull a Clark Griswall on the employees of Walmarts and cancel their Christmas Bonuses 😂
There’s every Raiders fan’s fave: Mike Scumbardi
still better then dickhand watson's deal
Makes me feal good about all those panthers picks gone
Enjoy early retirement. I could not believe Denver bit on him in the first place
