    Before last season a lot of Hawks fans would have agreed

    I read comments on twatter and there were plenty of 12s saying it’s better to keep Wilson.

    Indeed.

    I was wrong.

    I probably would have been too. I generally take the player and the drafts were underwhelming

    That fucking guy.

    More dirt coming out. Amazing how quickly an image can be tarnished.

    Wilson ain't shit without the LOB. Just another stat padder QB who benefits playing in the modern era. LOB won the Super Bowl and Wilson lost the second one that he was supposed to win. Since that point he's basically been your average Dallas Cowboys QB post-Aikman years.

    I'm no longer a Russell Wilson fan, but let's not act like the guy was Trent Dilfer or something. He won a lot of games.

    He’s garbage. He should write a book about how you become one of a franchises most beloved players of all time to no one giving a shit if they retire your jersey (most right now would probably not want it).

    I love Wilson pulling a power play by going to the owner like he is something special. Who the fuck does this guy think he is. It is still funny that his extension hasn't even started yet. Broncos go 8-9 in 2023 and miss the playoffs.

    Yeah, but so did Tony Romo with mediocre defenses most years.

    Also, I really give him no credit for the team's best seasons. The defense carried them, along with Marshawn. Wilson's role could've been reprised by a lot of other guys on those teams.

    Say what you want about Pete, but he's got his reads down about the culture he wants. I felt that when he was hired it was a risk because of the rah-rah Joe College stuff, but he has made it go.

    With the wild cast of characters he's had (Sherm, Earl, Lynch, Bennett, Clark, Harvin...et al), he's done a pretty good job of reigning them in, getting everything he could get out of them, and pulling the rip cord when production / behavior declined. I never expected Russ to push it over the line, but there you have it.

    Russ isn't Russ (the good version) without Pete...Pete created the monster, and dumped him before he got eaten by him...

    Exactly right on all statements... after Russ visibly slowed down as far as being able to avoid the rush and tried to become more of a pocket passer, the change in production was obvious and ominous.

    To be able to get the draft haul they did was as big a success as avoiding the negative consequences of watching Wilson decline to a shell of himself in front of Seattle fans which was the domino
    trail that was well on the way.

    Dan McGuire was garbage. Rick Mirer was garbage.

    Right. OJ is a MUCH BETTER comparison. Thanks.

    I don't really get this take. He's not Brady or Rogers, but he was consistently a top seven or so QB from 2015 to 2020. I do remember some clunkers, such as losing to Tampon Bay 14-7 or thereabouts once, but overall he was really solid, and he didn't have a running game some years.
