Russ may be done, but I dont like the trying to knock his career cause things didnt work in Denver.

Same happened to McNabb when he left Eagles. He went from a fringe HOF to no shot because he played bad his last 2 years. Bullshyt.

This is what happens to black QBs.

If they win out, how much help would the Broncos need to make the playoffs?

This is about money nothing else. And it’s a grave mistake this is why you don’t pay for big money big mouth coaches, they’re delusional and impatient

It’s a mistake bc if you’re trying to get a QB you either bottom out or you’re fukked. The QB class is never as good as you think especially outside the top 5.

They’re gotdamn 7-8 :heh: with 2 winnable games left even with a backup. They could mess a round be 9-8 and draft in the 20s talking bout some looking for a QB. At that range you’re drafting Kenny Pickett or Paxton Lynch

This is such a coward move at 7-8 despite their start, that means you’re good enough. Build around him and coach up the rest.

Same thing happened to Jimmy G. It’s a financial flexibility move by the Broncos

He'd start for the Falcons, Pats, Commanders, Raiders, Titans, Saints, Bears and Giants easily. Probably better than what the Cardinals and Panthers have but those teams are invested in Kyler and Bryce.

I dunno about that...

Most of those teams are in a position to draft their future QB and probably will. And the Saints and Giants are in bad contracts currently. Titans is interesting but I think they are content to ride with Levis

I have no idea where the fukk Russ can go at this point if he's released, unless his asking price drops significantly.

Russ will be fukkED if he's a Post June 1 cut. He's going to have to sign a 1 year prove it deal for cheap at this point.

I mean Lamar and Aaron Rodgers got drafted in that range too. For an even deeper cut... So did Dan Marino. Hell Russ himself is a 3rd round guy. You can still hit on QB's in that range, math just isn't as good for it happening.

But Im in full agreement with you. Why bring back Payton if you were ultimately going to just tear it all down, They could've done this with a rookie coach and not set all that money on fire bringing payton's ass out of retirement.

Sounds like Mr. "Not making the playoffs is a disappointment" is both punting and manufacturing a plea and a scapegoat :sas2:

They're back ups in injury situations, no one in the nfl is starting them bums training camp. Russell wilson isn't starting for 10-15 teams

Again, first take culture has ruined folk

Name me the actual QBs better than him this year. Not the dudes supposed to be, or projected as, that are literally playing better

One of them is a guy people like you wrote off as well, Jared Goff. Another is a guy who people also said wasn’t worth a shyt and could be benched by Trey lance

People need to realize Fran Tarkenson is not walking thru that door. There are like 5 truly elite QBs—-and even among those, first take culture has people doubting them every week—and outside of that you better be happy with what you have and scheme em up and build around them. Y’all mfers talk like if you don’t have Mahomes or Hurts you might as well tank. It’s silly af.

"The quarterback change increases the Broncos' financial flexibility this upcoming offseason, as Wilson will make an additional $37 million in guaranteed money if he can't pass a physical by early March. An injury to Wilson in either of Denver's last two games of the season would potentially trigger that guarantee."

It's strictly a money move and a bytch azz one at that.

Hes 18th passing yards and 21st in qbr, he's literally a game manager making 40+mm a year. The entire Denver offense is to throw the check or screen because russ inability to read defenses presnap. It's first take culture looking at his numbers without watching the games. None of his wrs will reach 800 yards because of his inability to target the middle of the field
