I love Brandon’s take because I’ve been saying the same thing. Russell Wilson will prove the haters wrong like he usually does. This will be his best year and Steelers will go to the super bowl.
The conversation around Russell as a person is a perfect example of how narrative trumps first hand accounts these days. Brandon described Russ being a family man, focused on his business and football. Brandon named the teammates who love Russ. Brandon is Russell's friend and he would know of all people what type of guy he is. Yet, people insist on repeating negative things heard through the rumor mill and stupid memes. This narrative that all his teammates dislike him has always been BS. There are far more teammates that have spoken out about his leadership and good character than the 2 or 3 from Seattle that speak bitterly. It's just that those negative comments make headlines and all the positive ones do not. Funny enough, some guys in that Seattle defense hated each other. There were real beefs on that team and Russ was definitely not in the center of any of them. His Denver teammates also loved him and spoke highly of him. There's no reason to believe he will not be able to lead as the Steelers QB.
And to add to your comments, I’ve lived in Seattle for a lot of years. I was here before Pete Carroll and the legion of boom. And the Seahawks were no where near the playoffs, let alone a Super Bowl. However, after Russell joined the team- we went to the playoffs and eventually a Super Bowl. (Twice) Nevertheless, some people on the team felt that Russell’s contribution was not so great. Are you kidding me? It was a great!. I guess some people have forgotten what the Seattle Seahawks were like before Russell. I haven’t. Let me remind everyone, every Sunday, we would lose. Every Sunday. Then Pete Carroll and the defense did start to win some games (7 and 9 twice) Those numbers do not get a team to the playoffs. So all you people who thinks that Russell was arrogant and too high on a horse. I say to you. He has a lot to be arrogant about. Also, some of those guys in those locker rooms could also be jealous.
Brandon is given real life to the conversation and it is so refreshing. No hot takes, no angles, just reality. And it is still very, very interesting..
Russ is solid legally, financially & athletically. He knows how to win. That's why he's there. Russ was never broken & never needed fixing. He is in excellent condition & very smart. Russ is not affected by other's behavior. He keeps on by his own standards. Sean Payton is emotionally unstable. Even that doesn't affect Russ. For Russ its about legacy not the money. You can always count on Russ to be Top Shelf no matter what. Russ is a true Gentleman & a Class Act. Russ is solid as a rock. Reliable Russ.
This right here. I think the Broncos are gonna learn the problem in the locker room was never Russell Wilson, it was Sean Payton. There's a reason he's hated around the league. Just saying.
Sean Payton doesn’t know what he’s doing. It’s clear he didn’t like Russ, however Russ was there before he got there. So I wonder why did he take the job? It certainly wasn’t about winning a championship. I’m not an NFL coach, but I know as a head coach your job is to win. From what I’ve seen thus far, Sean Payton doesn’t know how to select players (offensive line), choose a defensive coach to put together a defensive line. And to top it all off, Mr. Sean Payton decides to bench his starting quarterback during a run to the playoffs. That’s was a bad move. Because Denver could have made the playoffs. But no, Mr. Payton decides, the hell with making it to the playoffs, he’ll put in a backup quarterback for the last two games of the season. Yet, it’s some people blames Russell Wilson for Denver not making a playoff run. That’s complete nonsense…Now, Mr Payton who will you blame the next season? Hopefully, all the world will see you yell and scream at another player and shake their heads at your behavior. Mr Sean Payton, you are no leader.
First one in and first one out!! Thats a leader and thats what Steelers lacked on offense. Put the work in and they will follow. Thats what makes team great!!
Russ is going to do great in Pittsburgh. The steelers are all about football, family and respect. He fits the culture. Hard work and dedication is Pittsburgh, and not just the Steelers, it is the whole city.
The more and more you hear about Russ. It's almost like everyone is jealous of the guy. He is the epitome of what seems like a wholesome person. I have always been a fan of Russ but the way he interacted with his step-son at the NBA All-Star weekend just shows the person he is. #buzzcutruss
It's been like that. They just to beat up on him just because they know he won't punch back either. But like what many say he's got a good life. So many people just try to find the little bits and pieces they can try to talk negatively on and then it just became a snowball effect.
Any negativity said against Russell Wilson is jealousy, PERIOD. POINT. BLANK. If he doesn't beat out Fields, then he would be the backup, then leave after 1 year, and move. Edit: Or, the Steelers can sign Russ to a 3 or 4 year deal, yet, I would love Fields to be our future franchise guy, so if Russ plays well, the Steelers got themselves in a pickle.
They won’t be able to have Fields and Russ. It’s one or the other. Fields wants his bag, one he doesn’t deserve yet. Russ is proven. If he balls out, they should stick with Russ.
I wish more people would listen to Marshall. It's clear that a few haters have dictated the narrative around Russ, because for some reason the media clowns are always pushing lies regarding Russ. He will prove them all wrong, and I will yet again lisen to all the excuses that will come. Let the haters hate. Russ will rise above.
Other than Brandon Marshall, these guys are clowns! They can’t think for themselves, and you could see the resistance because they already had these false narratives ingrained in their heads.
Brandon had to spoon-feed these dudes with facts and logic! They aren’t objective and they came with the same tropes and false narratives Russ’s haters have spewed. Furthermore, the guy who claimed Rodgers was an MVP-level QB at 35 was wrong! The Packers were about to draft Jordan Love at that time. Rodgers didn’t win his MVPs until age 37 and 38 (2020 and 2021), but you can see these guys reaching for anything that allows them to maintain their deep-seated narratives. Derek Carr had an office. Other QBs have gotten perks. Russ’s was carrying the Seahawks. That’s what people don’t seem to accept. They want to run with the false narrative that the LoB was carrying the team, and they weren’t! If they are going to say that, they might as well say Tyreek Hill, Mecole Hardman, Travis Kelce, and the Chiefs’ O-Line carried Mahomes to his two SB appearances and a win. Those types of players have a much bigger and more direct impact on a QB’s performance than defenders do. Furthermore, Russ bailed out the LoB more times than I can count. Brandon’s argument about QBs being different is on point. They are different and are treated differently. This goes back to the jealousy argument. Richard Sherman, Percy Harvin, and Kam Chancellor wondered why they weren’t having brunch on Paul Allen’s Yacht like Russ. They weren’t as important to the team! Paul Allen left instructions to keep Russ on that roster until his retirement if possible, and Jody Allen violated that by agreeing to trade Russ instead of firing Pete years after he had already deserved to be fired! But the players? That was jealousy, and plenty of Russ’s teammates liked him!
That’s the truth. I think he would have preferred other spots. And the Bears sent him there because the last thing they need is for Fields to have immediate success and Caleb Williams to struggle. So, they did this on purpose. They didn’t want Fields to land in a spot where he had a legit chance to start right away and do well. They wanted him to be in a tough situation.
You know I used to not be a big fan of Brandon Marshall for what he did to the RUclipsr stevewilldoit, but he might’ve won be over with how he’s talking about the Steelers 🔥🖤💛
One of them tried to walk into one of my relatives’ businesses and he was promptly told to get out! That relative hates the way those so-called black men revealed things that never should have left the locker room.
@@DeCurtaRican I was cheering for them as the under dogs in their 1st Super Bowl. I was visiting Seattle so I was able to attend their parade. I started following the Seahawks...I was appalled at what jealously and hatred will make you do as teammates. I am so proud of Russell Wilson...the way he handled that situation. A true testimony of God's covering😇
My take is that the Steelers give Russell a 2 year extension, because that's how they normally do business, and try to get Fields on a 3 year back-up deal, sit behind Russ for 2 seasons and that 3rd Russel season he'll either retire or move on and Justin take over in that 3rd year. Yes, he may be starting alter, but like Brandon said, ARod didn't start until he was 27.
If you’re pointing to Rodgers, remind yourself that Rodgers is still a marquee QB at age 40 and Russ takes better care of himself than any QB on the league. He’s also a better athlete than Rodgers and has been more durable despite taking more hits. That could catch up to Russ but I doubt it. Like I said, he takes excellent care of his body. He spends $1M per year on his body, as does Ciara.
Brandon believes Dields will face to go elsewhere to be the frabchise QB, and I honestly think that’s the plan. The Steelers will strategically showcase him this year (situationally) just to whet the appetites of other teams, and flip Fields for a #1. The first time a team’s starter goes down, Pitts is going to receive calls. Atlanta Arizona Jax Las Vegas LAR NYG Carolina Chicago!!! (Caleb could be a bust!) Odds are that Fields goes elsewhere and Russ stays. But the Steelers will get 1-2 #1 policies for him so they can draft Russ’s replacement. Fields is getting flipped.
Melvin Gordon spoke on the meme and said he was looking at Russ in that way because he knows Russ was playing through an injury. Melvin said this after the Broncos cut him so he didn't have to. Mo is just adding stuff as media normally does but a meme is not reality.
Everybody made something negative out of that photo. Gordon was worried about Russ! I knew that. It’s frustrating to listen to all of these commentators gaslight, make up bs, and revise history just to hate on Russ.
@@PatriotWatchUSA: It isn’t nonsense. Russ was given those perks in Seattle because he had EARNED them. His mistake was accepting them in Denver before he had played. But Denver duped Russ into agreeing to go there. They’re liars! The roster was busted, and Hackett was a sh!tty coach! That’s why they paid Russ immediately. Besides the fact that he could’ve commanded 5 years, $320M if he had played his tail off in 2022, the Broncos were desperate because they hired Hackett believing Rodgers would follow. They gassed up the Broncos fan base to believe that they were getting Rodgers by hiring Hackett, and when Rodgers didn’t follow, they needed to deliver someone. They couldn’t fire Hackett right after hiring him, so they lied to Russ and told him Hackett would coach to his skill set, which he ultimately did not do! The Broncos were never on Russ’s radar, but Elway, George Paton, Peyton Manning, and others lied to Russ, mainly about Hackett. Everyone who has attacked Russ will need to do some soul-searching for real. That man hasn’t harmed anyone. The Broncos harmed him.
Tomlin makes no secret of his Christian beliefs, and many on his team mirror that, but they all respect him. I expect that the current Steelers are not the gun totin' shoot yourself in the leg at the club, or wreck your motorcycle and act like an ass with a woman kinda days. Like BM spoke to, it's a different culture. There's a reason players want to go to Pittsburgh and play for Tomlin.
Russ isn’t “very young,” but he’s not old either. He has a few years to be old. Melvin Gordon fumbled away a bunch of games. Other than Hackett’s bad decision-making, he’s the reason that 2022 Denver squad didn’t reach 10 wins! Why would he have been to look crazily at Russ?! He was wondering if Russ was alright. People took that photo and made what they wanted out of it.
If the Steelers kept trubisky at triple the pay… and he was getting multiple start and a long leech… why would Russ get cut at 1mil… and been to a sb and one one… coming off of a 26-8 ratio… know football
I feel like I remember Fields once saying that he wanted to be like Russ, I wonder if him choosing to go to the Steelers is actually because he wants to learn from the idol he looks up to
@@PatriotWatchUSA: It’s not crazy. Fields does idolize Russ. The problem with OP’s argument is that Fields chose Pittsburgh before Russ was even signed and before anyone knew he was actually going there. Fields thought he would be competing either way Kenny Pickett. The Bears went ahead and granted Fields’s wish AFTER Russ signed with Pitts because they knew Fields would have to sit for at least a year, likely longer, and would have no chance of starting, playing well, and making the Bears look bad for trading him. For his part, Fields didn’t want to look like a chicken, so he accepted the trade, but I’d bet money that once Russ signed with Pitts, Fields would’ve preferred another destination. The Bears wanted to stick Fields somewhere where he couldn’t be the guy. Imagine what would be said if Caleb came in and played poorly while Fields is playing well somewhere else. The Bears knew what they were doing by trading him to Pittsburgh, and they did it for themselves, not Fields.
Without offending anyone (hopefully), there is a difference between Business/Articulate & Street-Life Brothers. We can talk for awhile but once the Weed, Hennessy & Strip-Club talk shows up, the Articulate/Business Brothas will bounce it is what it is there no hate it is just different.
though i believe B. that Fields wanted the 'community' Tomlin spoke of, and knows he can learn from who he himself described as the gb he looked up to. tho he would take the job. i agree, they are gonna make each other better. Tomlin is right to be excited. we will be in an excellent conundrum! such an environment of respect it be crazy if they'd both stay beyond this season. i do believe Fields would be fine learning from Russ. and we will compete as a top team this season. AFC ship game level
The MEDIA is THE ONLY ONES making the Who's 1st Argument or Field's to be #1 Which is DUMB because The Steelers would have to Fork a 4th Rounder instead of 6th Rounder if he plays more than 51 snaps. Bench That! Now You have a Leader ELITE QB for 1.2 Mill this year and Next Year a Great Discount Too!! Didn't Wilson Beat Fields Last Year? Didn't Wilson Beat the Chiefs The Bills at Home.. 😂😂 I Don't Think People understand Russ is an ELITE LEVEL LEADER! It isn't about Justin's Ability to Run or Throw ONLY. This is about bringing Leadership to the Position to Grow the Offense. What is Justin's Work Ethnic? What is his Leadership Qualities? How does he prepare? I Guarantee THOSE aren't the Discussions. Just about Racing 😂😂😂. Russ Go Show Young Folk How it's Done!!
Nobody is expecting Russ & Juss on the field at the same time razzle-dazzling with each other Juss RB speed confusing opponents. SB '24 '25 Rings for all. OWNER'S ORDERS
I believe russ presence will make the whole team better because with pickett there was a cloud of hopelessness.some guys are getting to the end.i think the urgency will elevate the team.
Russ will have his own office in Pittsburgh but you have to find a way to relate to your men. Whether it's go-cart racing or going eat whatever you have to relate. KP08 had his own office in Pittsburgh so Russ and Fields will too
That was my take when they got Justin: What if Russ cooks? The North title. Possibility of being the no.1 seed in the afc or at least the first round bye. What do you do next year? Can you afford to leave Fields on the bench for a second year? Would all parties be open to doing this again? A great problem to have, but still...
That scenario is exactly why the media is so desperate for Russ to not even get the job in first place. Their worse nightmare if for Russ to lead Steelers on deep playoff run and solidifying starting job for years to come along with cementing his HOF legacy. Lots of ppl who hate Russell Wilson for reasons that have nothing to do with football
Mike Tomlin said exactly what I thought he'd say. Russ has earned the right to go in as the starter with no guarantees he'll come out that way. Pretty simple folks, Steelers hold all the leverage. It's a one-year tryout for both players. Russ has zero financial protection so he's gonna have to come out and perform at a high level or else! He does that it not only benefits the team, it benefits Fields as well! Ask Steve Young if playing behind Montana benefitted his career lol!
I guarantee you he was guaranteed the starting role. This was I believe the first FA role and there were many different options available for Wilson Vegas, Patriots, Vikings, Titans, Commanders, Panthers and even Seattle that were all interested in him. So in order for the Steelers to close the deal I'm positive they guaranteed him starting role right off the bat and when Picket was told that was the case he said that was unacceptable to him. So he thew history fit and was traded right away. That's how it all went down. Wilson had way too many options on the table at the time for it to go down as you will compete for the starting job... No one in his shoes would have signed them at that time without exploring many opportunities in front of him. I agree with the rest. H cn easily be the man again!!!! Field didnt have as many options as Wilson did.
Mike can put JF on the field as a great passing RB with legacy QB Russ & confuse opponents plazma welding the Steelers SB '24 & '25. Van Jefferson is long ball power. Steelers receivers & defense can unite & be dangerous. Dominate. Take The SB Shot Y'all!!!
Wilson won't be cut at all. They still need a QB2 if Fields becomes the starter. The other backups getting 3-4 million dollars. Even as a backup. He's a great value for a season. They'll give him a year. Regardless if he's QB1 or QB2.
Russ doesn’t even need to be a superstar to keep the job with this offense he just needs to bring his leadership, creativity, and accuracy to the Justin Fields vein he probably could beat out Russel Wilson but it would be better for himself to sit and learn from Russel for a while and then be miles ahead of the next best option when the next season comes around you have to keep a future quarterback 1 on the roster with Russel no matter how long we think he could play
My Steelers essentially recreated the 2022 situation. Russell Wilson = Mitch Trubisky Kenny Pickett = Justin Fields The biggest difference is BOTH Russell & Justin are WAAAY better than Mitch & Kenny. However, the same situation looms with the uncertainty of who deserves to be number one. Statistically (2023 season), Russell gets the nod. Justin was growing every season. As a fan, I am concerned because we’ve screwed up decisions regarding the quarterback position for the past 5-years.
What Brandon Marshall is really saying is that the LoB got big heads and were jealous of Russ because they didn’t want to stay in their lane. They thought THEY were the engine of the team, and media and fans are still promoting that narrative. Brandon Marshall is 100% on point! These fragile cats have bought into the bullsh!t. Russ did what he needed to do to make himself great. The office is no different from a set of weights or a special jump rope. It’s a tool!
I’m from Pittsburgh I live in Pittsburgh I believe they’re going to extend Russell and I think he wants the chip so bad that he is willing to take a lower pay. Justin is only 25 they should extend him early because he can be the future
If what you say becomes reality, that Wilson is the answer and will be resigned by the Steelers and Justin Fields will get his big contract elsewhere, then the Steelers need to draft a QB this year. Bo Nix may be the perfect candidate.
Iron sharpens iron! Russ and Fields will push each other. And yes, Russ will be in the MVP convo. Brandon isn’t the only one saying it. Chad Johnson, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, Jerry Rice, and a few others are saying it.
Not to be silly here, but I'd throw that same comment about Sam Darnold in the direction of Kenny Pickett. Where Kenny did have an opportunity to come in but it just was too soon. No vet to watch or Shadow or learn from.
Just try to get your heads wrapped around this. What if we get the best Russ, and the best Justin, across the duration of a very long and brutal season. How many QB's get thru it all intact, much less playing their best every week. And who or what other team has TWO top flight QB's to start their year, much less one? Imagine a world where these guys just wanna win, and they step up as the other gets beat up and fills the others shoes, and back again! Just maybe they're both realistic and amped enough to recognize that going deep into the playoffs will pay both of them well if they go that way. These guys could end up being the scariest great platooning tandem the game has ever seen. 😊 What they won't be is a scared and hurt Kenny being backed up by a useless Mitch til it's too late to care.
Russ had guys down at his home in San Diego right after the trade, well before he even started his first season in Denver. He just did the same thing in Pittsburgh. His teammates are allowed to use his office, which no one discusses. And Melvin Gordon liked Russ. He would’ve been the LAST guy to criticize Russ either way all of Melvin Gordon’s fumbles. He was concerned FOR Russ, not mad at him or giving him side-eye! These dudes have bought into the bullsh!t and it’s good that Russ has advocates out there to set people straight and bring them back down. It became open season on Russ two years ago, and people needed someone to hate. They really turned into bullies because Russ couldn’t fight back. Bekuecevthis akso affected his play, although no one would ever want to admit it. The media wants to promote the narrative that he’s washed, and Russ wants to promote the narrative that he can Zen his way through any mental or emotional challenges. So no one is going to admit that the bullying impacted Russ, but if we are honest, we know it did. The media and fans need someone to hate on. Now it’s on to Dak Prescott and LeBron James, and if Rodgers doesn’t play well this year, he can expect some punishment to come his way too.
All of a sudden he can’t led cut it out. Justin can be all lovable can you produce that’s important bruh. They hating on Russ, that man paid his dues. Make it make sense. Stop hating on the black QB white boy. Fuck outta here, he’s done it all. Put some respect on the man name. U sweet fr
Justin Fields is the answer in Pittsburgh. And Russell Wilson is there for the year to teach Justin every thing BM just said aboit Russ. This is awesome for Justin and i honestly believe Russ will mentor Justin to be the franchise quarterback. Even if Justin wins the job Russ can still teach this young man A LOT can't wait to see what the Steelers do internally amd in the nfl this coming year.... Lets go.
After watching and replaying the last three years of Fields, yeah I'm pretty confident. These kids either get it by year 3 or they don't. It's not your Dads NFL anymore @@ericsinclair1826
Wishful thinking on your part man. Pittsburgh is in win-now mode. The right QB is the experienced one, not the guy with the potential. Riss is going to lead the Steelers on a deep playoff run. Fields is not getting the keys to the Steelers until he demonstrates that he can pass consistently. Not only can Russ still spin it; he is still one hellafied athlete. People want to see Fields because they think he’s another Deshaun Watson or Lamar Jackson. As a runner, he absolutely is. As a passer, those guys are/were years ahead of Fields, and Russ is way ahead too. Fields has absolutely no shot at beating out Russ in camp, and that will be his best opportunity. So he’s definitely a backup for this year, and I believe a Russ will be an MVP candidate this year.
@@ericsinclair1826: No, you’re just fiat-out wrong. Tomlin has been in love with Russ for years, just like Belichick and Andy Reid have been. That’s why none of them could beat him, or maybe they are so enamored with him BECAUSE they couldn’t beat him. Before you raise that SB, remember that Pete Carroll and Daryl Bevell cooked up that flatfoot play and Ricardo Lockette blew it, not Russ. And this past season’s Broncos-Patriots game was THROWN by Payton. Russ had the team in position to win it. Payton threw that game. If Belichick had gotten the Falcons Job, he would have fought Tomlin and the Steelers for Russ. Then you would’ve had a bidding war centering on an extension.
Crazy thing is that Brandon Marshall resembles Future, and he’s sitting there promoting Russ, blowing him up! 😂 Guys want to have a bashing session. Some people get off on that and Russ was like the piñata that everybody was swinging a stick at. Now, they’re wondering what happened. People are defending Russ again and citing how great he is.
People close all of y'all hating mouths the whole NFL MAD because we were able to steal 2 QB right under everyone nose😅😅😅😅 our team is ready for the NFL ❤
And sometimes it's Ochim's Razer; Fields has already been thru the gauntlet & trial by fire with a team that tried building backwards, and here's a shot w/ a legendary franchise to play w/ or behind his own self-admitted model. What if, Justin just genuinely wants a chance to learn how to succeed in this new NFL business, AND live through it so he doesn't spend his golden years and gold after football all crippled and brain damaged. Justin has spent the first 90% of his NFL experience just running for his life, so what's not to like about getting paid to learn and actually have a chance to absorb the job at a slower pace. It's the closest thing you're gonna see these days to QB development. Thanks BM, we get it. 😊
Melvin Gordon was concerned for Euss, and he had no room to be a critic when he fumbled away 5 games. If anything, Gordon is the reason the Broncos didn’t make the playoffs that first year. I can point to two games right off the top that he fumbled away: Seahawks and Raiders!
You can sign me for 1.2 mill over 10 years and I won't only play qb I will do all the electrical work around the building, I will scrub the toilets, cut the grass what you need Pittsburgh?!?
Bottom line, Russ can get along with anyone, but knuckleheads will only have access to him at work. If you’re a knucklehead, you’re not coming to his home. You’re not going to be around Ciara or his kids. You’re not going to have his phone numbers. You will be able to call his secretary or speak to him at work.
These dudes’ wheels are spinning internally thinking “but Russ ain’t Brady, Manning, and Mahomes.” But he has a winning record vs. those guys. In Mahomes’s case, he SHOULD.
You can see their wheels turning like, well Russ isn’t Tom Brady. The comeback for that is, Russ was on a Brady-type trajectory. And it’s true, the LoB were some B*, period.
Leave it. Russ is Revamped as is the Steelers organization. Let Russ do his thing. No matter the sport, a player is only going to shine through his teammates. We need to address the C, OT, WR, CB and S positions. Russ is going to show up!
absolutely no. Tomlin knows Fields will learn from Wilson regardless of who starts. But Russ is the starter. going nowhere! Tomlin knows better and does better. anyone who knows the Steelers and Tomlin know better. i entirely agree with 1st dude. Wilson is qb1 into the start of the season. so he is going nowhere that soon, or this season imho. it IS a competition tho.
Who said that he's going to come around 🤔 like that he got hate in his heart ❤️ 💙 He has a double standard 🤔 for Black quarterbacks and bias because of the media narrative 🤔
Russel is one of those running quarterbacks....those dual threat guys that never learn how to read a defense and coverages, and run when they get in trouble. They usually have a limited window of success before they fail. They take those nfl hits and have short careers. HOW MANY OF THESE COLLEGE DUAL THREAT QUARTERBACKS ARE THEY GONNA PUSH DOWN OUR THROATS.....THEY SUCK
You can see that Russ-haters don’t want the truth. They’re just willing to promote negative stories about a man they don’t know, and who has never did anything to them. Russ isn’t the first guy to be different, and he’s not the first QB to receive special privileges like an office and extra parking slots. Pete Carroll should’ve been fired back in 2015, right after SB49, and Russ would’ve been wise not to sign that first extension with the Seahawks! He should’ve left first chance he got. He wouldn’t be going through this.
Many Steeler fans and others needed to hear this Brandon. Thank you very much
I love Brandon’s take because I’ve been saying the same thing. Russell Wilson will prove the haters wrong like he usually does. This will be his best year and Steelers will go to the super bowl.
lol
The conversation around Russell as a person is a perfect example of how narrative trumps first hand accounts these days. Brandon described Russ being a family man, focused on his business and football. Brandon named the teammates who love Russ. Brandon is Russell's friend and he would know of all people what type of guy he is. Yet, people insist on repeating negative things heard through the rumor mill and stupid memes. This narrative that all his teammates dislike him has always been BS. There are far more teammates that have spoken out about his leadership and good character than the 2 or 3 from Seattle that speak bitterly. It's just that those negative comments make headlines and all the positive ones do not. Funny enough, some guys in that Seattle defense hated each other. There were real beefs on that team and Russ was definitely not in the center of any of them. His Denver teammates also loved him and spoke highly of him. There's no reason to believe he will not be able to lead as the Steelers QB.
People will believe a lie vs the truth!
Agreed the media blew this way out of proportion. Fields is currently a failed first round pick. Where is the confusion ?
And to add to your comments, I’ve lived in Seattle for a lot of years. I was here before Pete Carroll and the legion of boom. And the Seahawks were no where near the playoffs, let alone a Super Bowl. However, after Russell joined the team- we went to the playoffs and eventually a Super Bowl. (Twice) Nevertheless, some people on the team felt that Russell’s contribution was not so great. Are you kidding me? It was a great!. I guess some people have forgotten what the Seattle Seahawks were like before Russell. I haven’t. Let me remind everyone, every Sunday, we would lose. Every Sunday. Then Pete Carroll and the defense did start to win some games (7 and 9 twice) Those numbers do not get a team to the playoffs. So all you people who thinks that Russell was arrogant and too high on a horse. I say to you. He has a lot to be arrogant about. Also, some of those guys in those locker rooms could also be jealous.
you lost me at .......brandon is russels friend......and he would know what type of guy he is. He is his friend, so he has a reason to lie
You gotta look at the people who have hated on him toy where the comments come from matters
I’m buying everything Brandon Marshall is saying about Russ. Russ is a true leader and he will start. I take it.
Exactly 💯
Omar Kahn doesn't give up info, period. Russ is our QB Justin needs to pay attention and learn. Tremendous opportunity.
me too... He is talking facts and reality as it relates to the game of football.. I'm so grateful for someone like Brandon in the media...
He is a wash. Yard sale QB
Yea
Brandon is given real life to the conversation and it is so refreshing. No hot takes, no angles, just reality. And it is still very, very interesting..
Russ is solid legally, financially & athletically. He knows how to win. That's why he's there. Russ was never broken & never needed fixing. He is in excellent condition & very smart. Russ is not affected by other's behavior. He keeps on by his own standards. Sean Payton is emotionally unstable. Even that doesn't affect Russ. For Russ its about legacy not the money. You can always count on Russ to be Top Shelf no matter what. Russ is a true Gentleman & a Class Act. Russ is solid as a rock. Reliable Russ.
Broncos is a dumpster 🔥 💯
This right here. I think the Broncos are gonna learn the problem in the locker room was never Russell Wilson, it was Sean Payton. There's a reason he's hated around the league. Just saying.
Sean Payton doesn’t know what he’s doing. It’s clear he didn’t like Russ, however Russ was there before he got there. So I wonder why did he take the job? It certainly wasn’t about winning a championship. I’m not an NFL coach, but I know as a head coach your job is to win. From what I’ve seen thus far, Sean Payton doesn’t know how to select players (offensive line), choose a defensive coach to put together a defensive line. And to top it all off, Mr. Sean Payton decides to bench his starting quarterback during a run to the playoffs. That’s was a bad move. Because Denver could have made the playoffs. But no, Mr. Payton decides, the hell with making it to the playoffs, he’ll put in a backup quarterback for the last two games of the season. Yet, it’s some people blames Russell Wilson for Denver not making a playoff run. That’s complete nonsense…Now, Mr Payton who will you blame the next season? Hopefully, all the world will see you yell and scream at another player and shake their heads at your behavior. Mr Sean Payton, you are no leader.
He is a cornball and he sucks
Great 👍 Show Big BM 👏 fan always. Glad 😊 I found the show 🙌
First one in and first one out!! Thats a leader and thats what Steelers lacked on offense. Put the work in and they will follow. Thats what makes team great!!
You mean, “first one in and LAST one out.”
@@DeCurtaRican yeah I did 😂
Always appreciated Russ!!
I agree with Brandon 100%
Shout out to Brandon Marshall! Really nice commentary man!
All y’all did a great job!
I had to subscribe !
Russ is going to do great in Pittsburgh. The steelers are all about football, family and respect. He fits the culture. Hard work and dedication is Pittsburgh, and not just the Steelers, it is the whole city.
Well said!
The more and more you hear about Russ. It's almost like everyone is jealous of the guy.
He is the epitome of what seems like a wholesome person. I have always been a fan of Russ but the way he interacted with his step-son at the NBA All-Star weekend just shows the person he is.
#buzzcutruss
The Legion of B!tchez were jealous.
It's been like that. They just to beat up on him just because they know he won't punch back either. But like what many say he's got a good life. So many people just try to find the little bits and pieces they can try to talk negatively on and then it just became a snowball effect.
I've never watched this show, great content.
Any negativity said against Russell Wilson is jealousy, PERIOD. POINT. BLANK. If he doesn't beat out Fields, then he would be the backup, then leave after 1 year, and move.
Edit: Or, the Steelers can sign Russ to a 3 or 4 year deal, yet, I would love Fields to be our future franchise guy, so if Russ plays well, the Steelers got themselves in a pickle.
Russ is going to hold his spot for the next 4-5 years, man.
They won’t be able to have Fields and Russ. It’s one or the other. Fields wants his bag, one he doesn’t deserve yet. Russ is proven. If he balls out, they should stick with Russ.
Brandon you would know I was such a fan of your game one of the greats
I believe Brandon wholeheartedly...btw
Shoutout to pittsburgh 😊
❤Love this Podcast❤ Beautiful
I wish more people would listen to Marshall. It's clear that a few haters have dictated the narrative around Russ, because for some reason the media clowns are always pushing lies regarding Russ. He will prove them all wrong, and I will yet again lisen to all the excuses that will come.
Let the haters hate. Russ will rise above.
Excellent perspective. These guys know how to think through a situation and read a room…
Other than Brandon Marshall, these guys are clowns! They can’t think for themselves, and you could see the resistance because they already had these false narratives ingrained in their heads.
Brandon had to spoon-feed these dudes with facts and logic! They aren’t objective and they came with the same tropes and false narratives Russ’s haters have spewed.
Furthermore, the guy who claimed Rodgers was an MVP-level QB at 35 was wrong! The Packers were about to draft Jordan Love at that time. Rodgers didn’t win his MVPs until age 37 and 38 (2020 and 2021), but you can see these guys reaching for anything that allows them to maintain their deep-seated narratives.
Derek Carr had an office. Other QBs have gotten perks. Russ’s was carrying the Seahawks. That’s what people don’t seem to accept. They want to run with the false narrative that the LoB was carrying the team, and they weren’t!
If they are going to say that, they might as well say Tyreek Hill, Mecole Hardman, Travis Kelce, and the Chiefs’ O-Line carried Mahomes to his two SB appearances and a win. Those types of players have a much bigger and more direct impact on a QB’s performance than defenders do.
Furthermore, Russ bailed out the LoB more times than I can count.
Brandon’s argument about QBs being different is on point. They are different and are treated differently. This goes back to the jealousy argument.
Richard Sherman, Percy Harvin, and Kam Chancellor wondered why they weren’t having brunch on Paul Allen’s Yacht like Russ. They weren’t as important to the team!
Paul Allen left instructions to keep Russ on that roster until his retirement if possible, and Jody Allen violated that by agreeing to trade Russ instead of firing Pete years after he had already deserved to be fired!
But the players? That was jealousy, and plenty of Russ’s teammates liked him!
Three prominent Steelers players RECRUITED Russ to Pittsburgh.
I believe Russ will lead us to another super bowl
Fields spoke on Pittsburgh before Russ was there. He was looking at comp with Pickett
That’s the truth. I think he would have preferred other spots. And the Bears sent him there because the last thing they need is for Fields to have immediate success and Caleb Williams to struggle. So, they did this on purpose. They didn’t want Fields to land in a spot where he had a legit chance to start right away and do well. They wanted him to be in a tough situation.
Russ will be the oldhead that will make these young guys better!
You know I used to not be a big fan of Brandon Marshall for what he did to the RUclipsr stevewilldoit, but he might’ve won be over with how he’s talking about the Steelers 🔥🖤💛
The quarter back is the Leader! Always. The Quarter back is One of the Generals. Connected to the Brass. Everything falls on them.
Go Steelers
Ain't no way he's getting cut. He only costs 1.2 million and there is no one else on the roster other than Fields.
The moment Brandon Marshall interviewed with Russ in the I am athlete I knew it Russ will be sign by Steelers
The Legion of Boom was Toxic!!! Can not believe what Marshawn states is considered the gospel🤣🤣🤣
One of them tried to walk into one of my relatives’ businesses and he was promptly told to get out! That relative hates the way those so-called black men revealed things that never should have left the locker room.
@@DeCurtaRican I was cheering for them as the under dogs in their 1st Super Bowl. I was visiting Seattle so I was able to attend their parade. I started following the Seahawks...I was appalled at what jealously and hatred will make you do as teammates. I am so proud of Russell Wilson...the way he handled that situation. A true testimony of God's covering😇
My take is that the Steelers give Russell a 2 year extension, because that's how they normally do business, and try to get Fields on a 3 year back-up deal, sit behind Russ for 2 seasons and that 3rd Russel season he'll either retire or move on and Justin take over in that 3rd year. Yes, he may be starting alter, but like Brandon said, ARod didn't start until he was 27.
Exactly 💯 what I think 🤔 Fields want to learn from Russ🎉
If you’re pointing to Rodgers, remind yourself that Rodgers is still a marquee QB at age 40 and Russ takes better care of himself than any QB on the league.
He’s also a better athlete than Rodgers and has been more durable despite taking more hits. That could catch up to Russ but I doubt it. Like I said, he takes excellent care of his body. He spends $1M per year on his body, as does Ciara.
Brandon believes Dields will face to go elsewhere to be the frabchise QB, and I honestly think that’s the plan. The Steelers will strategically showcase him this year (situationally) just to whet the appetites of other teams, and flip Fields for a #1. The first time a team’s starter goes down, Pitts is going to receive calls.
Atlanta
Arizona
Jax
Las Vegas
LAR
NYG
Carolina
Chicago!!! (Caleb could be a bust!)
Odds are that Fields goes elsewhere and Russ stays. But the Steelers will get 1-2 #1 policies for him so they can draft Russ’s replacement.
Fields is getting flipped.
@DeCurtaRican lol as does ciara
This is the same franchise that held onto Landry Jones and Mitch Trubisky. They aren’t cutting Russell Wilson in trading camp unless his arm is shot.
They aren’t cutting Russ because Russ is going to kill it. That dude is still one of the best. And I do believe he will be an MVP candidate this year.
They don't have a choice but to keep him at this point
Melvin Gordon spoke on the meme and said he was looking at Russ in that way because he knows Russ was playing through an injury. Melvin said this after the Broncos cut him so he didn't have to. Mo is just adding stuff as media normally does but a meme is not reality.
Everybody made something negative out of that photo. Gordon was worried about Russ! I knew that. It’s frustrating to listen to all of these commentators gaslight, make up bs, and revise history just to hate on Russ.
I am so confused about the criticism over a parking spot and an office. How many companies reward their employees with parking spots and office
Many QBs are given those perks by the team. Those are offered, not requested.
@@michaelbooth4998 This is nonsense
@@michaelbooth4998: Russ was offered!
@@PatriotWatchUSA: It isn’t nonsense. Russ was given those perks in Seattle because he had EARNED them. His mistake was accepting them in Denver before he had played.
But Denver duped Russ into agreeing to go there. They’re liars! The roster was busted, and Hackett was a sh!tty coach! That’s why they paid Russ immediately. Besides the fact that he could’ve commanded 5 years, $320M if he had played his tail off in 2022, the Broncos were desperate because they hired Hackett believing Rodgers would follow.
They gassed up the Broncos fan base to believe that they were getting Rodgers by hiring Hackett, and when Rodgers didn’t follow, they needed to deliver someone.
They couldn’t fire Hackett right after hiring him, so they lied to Russ and told him Hackett would coach to his skill set, which he ultimately did not do!
The Broncos were never on Russ’s radar, but Elway, George Paton, Peyton Manning, and others lied to Russ, mainly about Hackett.
Everyone who has attacked Russ will need to do some soul-searching for real. That man hasn’t harmed anyone. The Broncos harmed him.
Tomlin makes no secret of his Christian beliefs, and many on his team mirror that, but they all respect him. I expect that the current Steelers are not the gun totin' shoot yourself in the leg at the club, or wreck your motorcycle and act like an ass with a woman kinda days. Like BM spoke to, it's a different culture. There's a reason players want to go to Pittsburgh and play for Tomlin.
Russ isn’t “very young,” but he’s not old either. He has a few years to be old. Melvin Gordon fumbled away a bunch of games. Other than Hackett’s bad decision-making, he’s the reason that 2022 Denver squad didn’t reach 10 wins!
Why would he have been to look crazily at Russ?! He was wondering if Russ was alright. People took that photo and made what they wanted out of it.
If the Steelers kept trubisky at triple the pay… and he was getting multiple start and a long leech… why would Russ get cut at 1mil… and been to a sb and one one… coming off of a 26-8 ratio… know football
I feel like I remember Fields once saying that he wanted to be like Russ, I wonder if him choosing to go to the Steelers is actually because he wants to learn from the idol he looks up to
@@PatriotWatchUSA turned out alright for Jordan Love
ummmmm he was behind a hall of famer. He sat because it took time to get AR out of the building. Had nothing to do with "development" @@theconvoy8603
@@PatriotWatchUSA: It’s not crazy. Fields does idolize Russ. The problem with OP’s argument is that Fields chose Pittsburgh before Russ was even signed and before anyone knew he was actually going there. Fields thought he would be competing either way Kenny Pickett.
The Bears went ahead and granted Fields’s wish AFTER Russ signed with Pitts because they knew Fields would have to sit for at least a year, likely longer, and would have no chance of starting, playing well, and making the Bears look bad for trading him.
For his part, Fields didn’t want to look like a chicken, so he accepted the trade, but I’d bet money that once Russ signed with Pitts, Fields would’ve preferred another destination.
The Bears wanted to stick Fields somewhere where he couldn’t be the guy. Imagine what would be said if Caleb came in and played poorly while Fields is playing well somewhere else.
The Bears knew what they were doing by trading him to Pittsburgh, and they did it for themselves, not Fields.
@@PatriotWatchUSA I clearly don’t and I’m sorry, I guess I was just expressing my own perspective or theory. Didn’t mean to spread misinformation
Without offending anyone (hopefully), there is a difference between Business/Articulate & Street-Life Brothers. We can talk for awhile but once the Weed, Hennessy & Strip-Club talk shows up, the Articulate/Business Brothas will bounce it is what it is there no hate it is just different.
though i believe B. that Fields wanted the 'community' Tomlin spoke of, and knows he can learn from who he himself described as the gb he looked up to.
tho he would take the job. i agree, they are gonna make each other better. Tomlin is right to be excited.
we will be in an excellent conundrum! such an environment of respect it be crazy if they'd both stay beyond this season. i do believe Fields would be fine learning from Russ. and we will compete as a top team this season. AFC ship game level
The MEDIA is THE ONLY ONES making the Who's 1st Argument or Field's to be #1 Which is DUMB because The Steelers would have to Fork a 4th Rounder instead of 6th Rounder if he plays more than 51 snaps. Bench That! Now You have a Leader ELITE QB for 1.2 Mill this year and Next Year a Great Discount Too!! Didn't Wilson Beat Fields Last Year? Didn't Wilson Beat the Chiefs The Bills at Home.. 😂😂 I Don't Think People understand Russ is an ELITE LEVEL LEADER! It isn't about Justin's Ability to Run or Throw ONLY. This is about bringing Leadership to the Position to Grow the Offense. What is Justin's Work Ethnic? What is his Leadership Qualities? How does he prepare? I Guarantee THOSE aren't the Discussions. Just about Racing 😂😂😂. Russ Go Show Young Folk How it's Done!!
Nailed it
Nobody is expecting Russ & Juss on the field at the same time razzle-dazzling with each other Juss RB speed confusing opponents.
SB '24 '25 Rings for all.
OWNER'S ORDERS
Russ and Juss with Juss as a receiver or QB decoy. I think Fields should convert to WR anyway. But I see Fields on jet-sweeps, etc.
W take by b marsh
I believe russ presence will make the whole team better because with pickett there was a cloud of hopelessness.some guys are getting to the end.i think the urgency will elevate the team.
Russ will have his own office in Pittsburgh but you have to find a way to relate to your men. Whether it's go-cart racing or going eat whatever you have to relate. KP08 had his own office in Pittsburgh so Russ and Fields will too
B, I'm pickin up what you lay'n down. Wilson will be a MVP candidate and most the media will be eating crow pie.
Pass the pipe
Tell'im Brandon. Let'im know
That was my take when they got Justin: What if Russ cooks? The North title. Possibility of being the no.1 seed in the afc or at least the first round bye. What do you do next year? Can you afford to leave Fields on the bench for a second year? Would all parties be open to doing this again? A great problem to have, but still...
We have our present 🎁 and future!!!😮
That scenario is exactly why the media is so desperate for Russ to not even get the job in first place. Their worse nightmare if for Russ to lead Steelers on deep playoff run and solidifying starting job for years to come along with cementing his HOF legacy. Lots of ppl who hate Russell Wilson for reasons that have nothing to do with football
Mike Tomlin said exactly what I thought he'd say. Russ has earned the right to go in as the starter with no guarantees he'll come out that way. Pretty simple folks, Steelers hold all the leverage. It's a one-year tryout for both players. Russ has zero financial protection so he's gonna have to come out and perform at a high level or else! He does that it not only benefits the team, it benefits Fields as well! Ask Steve Young if playing behind Montana benefitted his career lol!
They are hating! A perfect 👌 system for both QB'S 😅😂
"a perfect system" that's so funny
Always a double standard when it comes to us!! 😮 It's always this way when it comes to us. Others don't even realize that they are that way
Love ❤️ the show 🎉
That’s hopefully not what he’s thinking. He can also learn from Russell he’s lucky to be in that situation
I'm sure he's thinking that. lol
Russ get a two year deal and a extention, Field's get a 5 year contract. They are going to be 13-3
lol Thank You
They have to Earn it.
I guarantee you he was guaranteed the starting role. This was I believe the first FA role and there were many different options available for Wilson Vegas, Patriots, Vikings, Titans, Commanders, Panthers and even Seattle that were all interested in him. So in order for the Steelers to close the deal I'm positive they guaranteed him starting role right off the bat and when Picket was told that was the case he said that was unacceptable to him. So he thew history fit and was traded right away. That's how it all went down. Wilson had way too many options on the table at the time for it to go down as you will compete for the starting job... No one in his shoes would have signed them at that time without exploring many opportunities in front of him. I agree with the rest. H cn easily be the man again!!!! Field didnt have as many options as Wilson did.
Melvin Gordon wanted to comfort Russ when he was staring at him in that picture.
Mike can put JF on the field as a great passing RB with legacy QB Russ & confuse opponents plazma welding the Steelers SB '24 & '25. Van Jefferson is long ball power. Steelers receivers & defense can unite & be dangerous. Dominate. Take The SB Shot Y'all!!!
That will make him Taysom Hill, but Russ is the QB.
Wilson won't be cut at all. They still need a QB2 if Fields becomes the starter. The other backups getting 3-4 million dollars. Even as a backup. He's a great value for a season. They'll give him a year. Regardless if he's QB1 or QB2.
Russ doesn’t even need to be a superstar to keep the job with this offense he just needs to bring his leadership, creativity, and accuracy to the Justin Fields vein he probably could beat out Russel Wilson but it would be better for himself to sit and learn from Russel for a while and then be miles ahead of the next best option when the next season comes around you have to keep a future quarterback 1 on the roster with Russel no matter how long we think he could play
My Steelers essentially recreated the 2022 situation.
Russell Wilson = Mitch Trubisky
Kenny Pickett = Justin Fields
The biggest difference is BOTH Russell & Justin are WAAAY better than Mitch & Kenny.
However, the same situation looms with the uncertainty of who deserves to be number one. Statistically (2023 season), Russell gets the nod. Justin was growing every season. As a fan, I am concerned because we’ve screwed up decisions regarding the quarterback position for the past 5-years.
Yep you just like the OLD Bears. Run the ball defense. Nobody wins that way anymore.
What Brandon Marshall is really saying is that the LoB got big heads and were jealous of Russ because they didn’t want to stay in their lane. They thought THEY were the engine of the team, and media and fans are still promoting that narrative.
Brandon Marshall is 100% on point! These fragile cats have bought into the bullsh!t.
Russ did what he needed to do to make himself great. The office is no different from a set of weights or a special jump rope. It’s a tool!
I’m from Pittsburgh I live in Pittsburgh I believe they’re going to extend Russell and I think he wants the chip so bad that he is willing to take a lower pay. Justin is only 25 they should extend him early because he can be the future
I'm sure JF wants to sit behind Wilson for 2-3 years. You folks are a little too happy about your rejects
If what you say becomes reality, that Wilson is the answer and will be resigned by the Steelers and Justin Fields will get his big contract elsewhere, then the Steelers need to draft a QB this year. Bo Nix may be the perfect candidate.
No Fields look up to Russ!! They can make the money 💰 🤑 work. Extended both. Franchise one the following year. Need 2 years!!
Iron sharpens iron! Russ and Fields will push each other.
And yes, Russ will be in the MVP convo. Brandon isn’t the only one saying it. Chad Johnson, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett, Jerry Rice, and a few others are saying it.
only one in the narrative that is talking real talk.. people be hating on him.. for playing good last year?
If Fields thought he would go to Pittsburgh and beat out Russ, he had the wrong idea!
I mean Ben was kind of the same way with relating to people outside of football
Not to be silly here, but I'd throw that same comment about Sam Darnold in the direction of Kenny Pickett. Where Kenny did have an opportunity to come in but it just was too soon. No vet to watch or Shadow or learn from.
Just try to get your heads wrapped around this. What if we get the best Russ, and the best Justin, across the duration of a very long and brutal season. How many QB's get thru it all intact, much less playing their best every week. And who or what other team has TWO top flight QB's to start their year, much less one? Imagine a world where these guys just wanna win, and they step up as the other gets beat up and fills the others shoes, and back again! Just maybe they're both realistic and amped enough to recognize that going deep into the playoffs will pay both of them well if they go that way. These guys could end up being the scariest great platooning tandem the game has ever seen. 😊
What they won't be is a scared and hurt Kenny being backed up by a useless Mitch til it's too late to care.
Russ had guys down at his home in San Diego right after the trade, well before he even started his first season in Denver. He just did the same thing in Pittsburgh.
His teammates are allowed to use his office, which no one discusses.
And Melvin Gordon liked Russ. He would’ve been the LAST guy to criticize Russ either way all of Melvin Gordon’s fumbles. He was concerned FOR Russ, not mad at him or giving him side-eye!
These dudes have bought into the bullsh!t and it’s good that Russ has advocates out there to set people straight and bring them back down.
It became open season on Russ two years ago, and people needed someone to hate. They really turned into bullies because Russ couldn’t fight back. Bekuecevthis akso affected his play, although no one would ever want to admit it.
The media wants to promote the narrative that he’s washed, and Russ wants to promote the narrative that he can Zen his way through any mental or emotional challenges. So no one is going to admit that the bullying impacted Russ, but if we are honest, we know it did.
The media and fans need someone to hate on. Now it’s on to Dak Prescott and LeBron James, and if Rodgers doesn’t play well this year, he can expect some punishment to come his way too.
All of a sudden he can’t led cut it out. Justin can be all lovable can you produce that’s important bruh. They hating on Russ, that man paid his dues. Make it make sense. Stop hating on the black QB white boy. Fuck outta here, he’s done it all. Put some respect on the man name. U sweet fr
JF is terrible
Marsh liied about the phone. Russell always had a blocked phone
Why can’t people understand that Russ isn’t going to hang out with guys who talk about bullsh!t, smoke w33d, and do reckless sh!t.
Justin Fields is the answer in Pittsburgh. And Russell Wilson is there for the year to teach Justin every thing BM just said aboit Russ. This is awesome for Justin and i honestly believe Russ will mentor Justin to be the franchise quarterback. Even if Justin wins the job Russ can still teach this young man A LOT can't wait to see what the Steelers do internally amd in the nfl this coming year.... Lets go.
You will know very soon how wrong you are
@@PatriotWatchUSA 🤣🤣🤣. Maybe. Maybe not.
After watching and replaying the last three years of Fields, yeah I'm pretty confident. These kids either get it by year 3 or they don't. It's not your Dads NFL anymore @@ericsinclair1826
Wishful thinking on your part man. Pittsburgh is in win-now mode. The right QB is the experienced one, not the guy with the potential.
Riss is going to lead the Steelers on a deep playoff run. Fields is not getting the keys to the Steelers until he demonstrates that he can pass consistently. Not only can Russ still spin it; he is still one hellafied athlete.
People want to see Fields because they think he’s another Deshaun Watson or Lamar Jackson. As a runner, he absolutely is. As a passer, those guys are/were years ahead of Fields, and Russ is way ahead too.
Fields has absolutely no shot at beating out Russ in camp, and that will be his best opportunity. So he’s definitely a backup for this year, and I believe a Russ will be an MVP candidate this year.
@@ericsinclair1826: No, you’re just fiat-out wrong. Tomlin has been in love with Russ for years, just like Belichick and Andy Reid have been.
That’s why none of them could beat him, or maybe they are so enamored with him BECAUSE they couldn’t beat him.
Before you raise that SB, remember that Pete Carroll and Daryl Bevell cooked up that flatfoot play and Ricardo Lockette blew it, not Russ.
And this past season’s Broncos-Patriots game was THROWN by Payton. Russ had the team in position to win it. Payton threw that game.
If Belichick had gotten the Falcons Job, he would have fought Tomlin and the Steelers for Russ. Then you would’ve had a bidding war centering on an extension.
Crazy thing is that Brandon Marshall resembles Future, and he’s sitting there promoting Russ, blowing him up! 😂
Guys want to have a bashing session. Some people get off on that and Russ was like the piñata that everybody was swinging a stick at. Now, they’re wondering what happened. People are defending Russ again and citing how great he is.
At 35, Aaron Rodgers lost every game he played in his own division (NFCn). Russ won more games in that division in 2018 than Rodgers did.
People close all of y'all hating mouths the whole NFL MAD because we were able to steal 2 QB right under everyone nose😅😅😅😅 our team is ready for the NFL ❤
Nobody wanted either misfit toy and you will see soon why they didn't.
And sometimes it's Ochim's Razer; Fields has already been thru the gauntlet & trial by fire with a team that tried building backwards, and here's a shot w/ a legendary franchise to play w/ or behind his own self-admitted model. What if, Justin just genuinely wants a chance to learn how to succeed in this new NFL business, AND live through it so he doesn't spend his golden years and gold after football all crippled and brain damaged. Justin has spent the first 90% of his NFL experience just running for his life, so what's not to like about getting paid to learn and actually have a chance to absorb the job at a slower pace. It's the closest thing you're gonna see these days to QB development. Thanks BM, we get it. 😊
Russ can teach him about life purpose and family and business 💯 Russ will teach 💯 him 🙏 life 💯 lessons.
Well said!!
🎉great 👍 take
I am so happy for Russ and Justin
Justin Fields has an opportunity to develop just ignore this outside noise😇
Melvin Gordon was concerned for Euss, and he had no room to be a critic when he fumbled away 5 games. If anything, Gordon is the reason the Broncos didn’t make the playoffs that first year. I can point to two games right off the top that he fumbled away: Seahawks and Raiders!
I could elaborate for a bit on this silly topic but the easy version is Russ will be cooking all year long baby.
You can sign me for 1.2 mill over 10 years and I won't only play qb I will do all the electrical work around the building, I will scrub the toilets, cut the grass what you need Pittsburgh?!?
Bottom line, Russ can get along with anyone, but knuckleheads will only have access to him at work.
If you’re a knucklehead, you’re not coming to his home. You’re not going to be around Ciara or his kids. You’re not going to have his phone numbers.
You will be able to call his secretary or speak to him at work.
Is there a possibility of Ohmar Khan wanting his guy at QB
When's he going to get it
Its all up to Rooney & the coaches. They will decide. Russ should be an NFL starter somewhere. He needs another SB.
The QB is different but so is Pittsburgh... Big Ben didn't have a private office to my knowledge.
It was a circus in Denver. Don't let anyone tell you different.
These dudes’ wheels are spinning internally thinking “but Russ ain’t Brady, Manning, and Mahomes.”
But he has a winning record vs. those guys. In Mahomes’s case, he SHOULD.
Russel wilson is not him
You can see their wheels turning like, well Russ isn’t Tom Brady. The comeback for that is, Russ was on a Brady-type trajectory.
And it’s true, the LoB were some B*, period.
Leave it. Russ is Revamped as is the Steelers organization. Let Russ do his thing. No matter the sport, a player is only going to shine through his teammates. We need to address the C, OT, WR, CB and S positions. Russ is going to show up!
absolutely no. Tomlin knows Fields will learn from Wilson regardless of who starts. But Russ is the starter. going nowhere! Tomlin knows better and does better. anyone who knows the Steelers and Tomlin know better. i entirely agree with 1st dude. Wilson is qb1 into the start of the season. so he is going nowhere that soon, or this season imho.
it IS a competition tho.
When was the last time he was any good?
Marshal is the Perkins of the NFL lol everything he says turns out wrong 😂😂
I think it’s almost certain he will be benched
I want to believe Brandon but remember he said and bet he would have a better year then AB and lost a Lamborghini
If Russ gives US (THE BURGH) 28 and 10 TD to int ratio the Steelers battle for 1 seed
Who said that he's going to come around 🤔 like that he got hate in his heart ❤️ 💙 He has a double standard 🤔 for Black quarterbacks and bias because of the media narrative 🤔
Russel is one of those running quarterbacks....those dual threat guys that never learn how to read a defense and coverages, and run when they get in trouble. They usually have a limited window of success before they fail. They take those nfl hits and have short careers. HOW MANY OF THESE COLLEGE DUAL THREAT QUARTERBACKS ARE THEY GONNA PUSH DOWN OUR THROATS.....THEY SUCK
If Russ was a white qb
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🌗🙏🏾
You can see that Russ-haters don’t want the truth. They’re just willing to promote negative stories about a man they don’t know, and who has never did anything to them.
Russ isn’t the first guy to be different, and he’s not the first QB to receive special privileges like an office and extra parking slots.
Pete Carroll should’ve been fired back in 2015, right after SB49, and Russ would’ve been wise not to sign that first extension with the Seahawks!
He should’ve left first chance he got. He wouldn’t be going through this.
