Giants is literally same situation as Denver. I want to see him have a chance
Falcons would be the best situation for success
How many times can the Seahawks sack Russell like they did Daniel Jones?
denver is a better team overall without the QBs. Especially minus barkley.
Falcons over Steelers?@@joshramirez7
There’s something to be said of NYC being a better market for Sierra to live in too.
Eddie Bravo getting a shout out on the Rich Eisen show is insane.
Nearly spit out my drink when i heard Rich say his name.
I thought the same thing lmfao
The shade on Newark is classic. But showing up on commercial is the real deal.
I'm sure Dallas, Philly, and Washington, support having Wilson at quarterback of the New York Giants too.
Speaking for us all, we do
I hope u guys get that wish
He would immediately be the best QB on the team, so it's nice that they would root for that.
Ohhhh the NFC East. All bark and no bite.
@@lucasmartinez5703 Good one!
Newark truly is a test of will
It makes sense because his wife is mostly in New York. A few years back, didn’t she get mad for having the travel to Seattle all the time. So this make perfect sense for him and his family.
Shoot, u know any team Russ goes to next will be in the top 3 or 4 of the market. Count out Cowboys cuz they gonna hope & pray Dak plays to earn his keep....
Rich, you are the man! I flew through Newark Infernal Airport frequently and I feel your pain. It has all the charm of dog vomit. The layout is somewhere between chaotic and non-existent. Love the rant.
Rich..a rising star in the ‘sit down comedy’ arena!🤓
Rich is a Delusional apologist for Wilson, Watson and Lamar!
We gotta add the Newark rant to the list. Maybe not the best but most definitely one of the most out of the blue funny
Bruh. Literally sitting at Newark airport listening to this as my flight is delayed. Lol.
Love It! Love It! Great Vid! Thank You Sir! : )
I'll speak for all NJ residents, we all hate Newark Airport
This show is hilarious! Thanks for the laughs.
I live in NJ and I and I never fly out of Newark. Rather fly out of Philly.
I don't think people are taking into account that Pissburgh is a blue collar town, and Russ IS NOT a blue collar QB. I don't see it working there.
I like the idea of Russ with the Giants. They then can re-sign Saquon and focus on receivers and the O-line in free agency and the draft. Tyrod Taylor is underrated, but I think that Russ might be even better. Daniel Jones is at best a competent backup. No dishonor in that. He was just drafted too high.
I think Barkley is done with the Giants
NYG are a 1-16 team in 2024
The league isn’t set up for an aging QB who relies on his ability to escape to hide his flaws. DL/DE is too fast now. His inability to complete intermediate timing throws led to terrible sacks, and will always be the reason why he won’t make it back to a SB.
Quick Stat: In total sacks, Denver’s OL was ranked top 5 in the NFL, responsible for 70.1% of sacks. Russ was ranked 1st (for QBs), responsible for 24.3%.
He had a great career in Seattle, but that old Russ doesn’t exist anymore.
Nailed it. Couldn't run a cutdown version of Payton's offense which relies on timing. Too many look at the stats and think he played well.
It was either checkdowns or hail Marys with little in-between
Denver’s OL isn’t close to a top 5 OL in reality. Yea, Wilson might of been responsible for 25% of his sacks but his supporters would argue that with a pocket QB Denver woulda gave up FAR MORE sacks than they did with Russell, that he avoided a lot of sacks avoiding far more than he gave up , but that Denver is just horrific in pass protection and Sean Payton’s play calling did nothing to help Russ out.
I think "that old Russ" is definitely the one that currently exists
@@K1forMVP Wilson was sacked a ton in Seattle as well, perhaps its a coincidence or not..
We’re still talking a vet-min deal here. Find me a better QB you can get for even 3x that price
I'm from upstate NY. I *try* to fly out of Newark to avoid NYC. I would have said the pre-renovation LaGuardia is how you describe Newark, but LaGuardia is nicer now.
The Vikings defense made Daniel Jones look good. It was an illusion.
2004: Giants released Kerry Collins, signed SB winning QB Kurt Warner and then traded up for Eli
2024: stuck with Jones one more year, possibly signing SB winning QB Russell Wilson and there’s even talks of them trading up for a QB
Good stuff as always! 😂
As a Giants fan I would rather have Russ and Jones than reach for a QB in the draft.
I agree. Daboll would surely enjoy working with Russ. He would get so MUCH out of him.
The team is in criminally bad shape, we would be winless without Barkley.
@@morenewyorkgiantsplease I mentally punted on next season it's a wash. Just hope it could be entertaining.
Giants should push to pickup Flaco! Wilson and Jones are Bust in 2024.
My thoughts as well. I'd be content with RW, DJ and Tommy for the Giants QB room in 2024.
I am from Newark. And I second that motion, Rich!
If winning is his top priority then Pittsburgh is the easy choice.
rich! You're now Persona Nongrada in the Greater Newark Area, oh man
Russ mentioned SB's and you're suggesting the Giants would be a better fit - hahahahaha I didn't know Rich was a comedian!
Here just for the Newark comments 😂
The Garden spot of the Garden State.
Russ to Steelers would be the best move for him. Kenny Pickett it's just like kordell Stewart all hype.
Stewart took the Steelers to an afc championship. Pickett can't hold Stewart's jock strap. Are you high?
@@vincentbonner3453 Very True, Those tiny Hands ain't holding that 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You are a very wise man!~ playing for rivals won't work out well, in my opinion. I've been noticing a pattern here. But will it be Russell's decision?... Especially if you are married to an Entertainer who sings.... You know where I'm going with this.... Right?..
True Tomlin Good Coach better Job for Wilson. But still 9 win team. Wilson is Toast and Pete in Seattle knew it!
Dude, Kordell was awesome. Yeah, he was turnover prone, but the guy took us to the AFC Championship. Kenny can barely get us a TD drive right now.
Was Rusty leading the passengers in calisthenics in the aisles?
Imagine this impossible scenario.
Giants
- pick up wilson
- keep barkley
- draft malik nabers
- keep waller
- keep tyrod as backup
Suddenly you have a squad worth mentioning!
No squad without a good o- line though
Rich was really pulling at threads here to get a full story. The show could use more special segments or actual analysis during the off weeks
😂 shows commitment to the craft!!! 😂
This was hysterical...
I always think of Newark International Airport as Moon-Base Alpha
First off , you get a thumbs 👍up from me for the Space 1999 Reference. I've never been to Newark international airport but if it looks like Moonbase Alpha can it really, be that bad?
Fly through Newark a ton.. Ill take that over Toronto or London any day..
lol other side of the flying commercial argument is, the giants clearly don't think much of him if they aren't bothering to arrange transportation.
Probably a courtesy stop on his way to Pittsburgh. And it's a MUCH better look for a guy accused of being aloof than flying private.
@@disqusrubbish5467A Private jet would be a bad look. I’m sure he flew first class though!
I think should ride with the young kid and sign a solid rb, there's plenty available
@disqusrubbish5467 yup. And Russell Wilson went out of his way to make sure that everyone knew about it.
CJ called it!!
welcome to Pittsburgh!!
What's the over under on Arron getting hurt at home in NJ in the 1st 4 home games in 2024 ?
As a Giants fan I would be happy to have Russ but I want him to have a chance to win a ring and his best chance is in Pittsburgh
Which really isn't much chance at all, just like the Broncos the Steelers need more than a qb...
If they trusted Pickett they woulda played him over Rudolph after his ankle healed & with NYG no way he’s winning a SB or 2 next five years there in PIT with the offensive weapons/Defense you have a chance
Am I the only person who has doubts that a 35 year old who is half a head shorter than some guy in an airport can star again in the NFL?
Well, here's something...
2023
Patrick Mahomes - TDs 27, INTs 14, Passer rating 92.6
Russ Wilson - TDs 26, INTS, 8, Passer rating 98.0
It didn't stop Doug Flutie and his 5'10 frame with the Bills even though he got shafted by Wade Phillips for Rob Johnson.
@@disqusrubbish5467How many interceptions is the Kadarius Toney handicap? [Also how many pick 6's is Toney worth?] I noticed that you neglected to put passing yards in there; but I know why.
If you think that the city won’t burn if they force Kenny down our throat. You’re crazy. The fans have had enough. They say they don’t care but they will when it gets loud. They did with canada and the Mason chants.
Calm down
How come this wasn't being pushed prior, before the media whinning for Pittsburgh to sign Wilson??
Bo Nix....second highest QB ranking of all the college QBs last year.
Whats the point? The giants letting Saquon go clearly shows that they're not trying to do anything this year, so why throw more money away on Russ ?
Rich fails to mention that both Tommy Cutlets and Tyrod missed time last season due to injuries... Jones sacked 30 times in those 6 games...Every QB who played behind that line got hurt, and was sacked at a record rate...
Nice going, cueball
I just hope the team that takes him knows the drama that will follow....
yeah EWR is a dump. I still use it when I go to Manhattan though because it takes forever from JFK unless it's 4am (which I have done; it's really fast with no traffic)
Yes! Great fit for the Giants!!!
Even though Russell Wilson can possibly be a backup depending how it goes if he signed to Pittsburgh…
It’s still only the best fit and there are way too many reasons because of some revealed connections Wilson has with The Steelers
If only Wilson - Russ not the cougar hunter - would accept a Robin role to Rodger's Batman.
Hate the title , watching because it is Rich Eisen , giving facts , pausing to let us absorb info , treating it like everyone deserve respect !,,
richie is just a giants fan and a dream lol reminds me of broncos country about oh 2 years ago or something
The Giants have had interest in Wilson for years, even before Jones.
Yes they did.
yes pls 3:00
Hey, @RichEisen my Seattle RW#3 to my bff's DB, to now my Seth Myers PS!!???
Russ was at his best when had LOB and a strong running game. Last year Russ only won one game when Denver’s defense didn’t force more than two turnovers in a game. Russ has and will probably always need to play with a strong defense. He needs to go to Pittsburgh to salvage his career.
"Russ was at his best when had LOB and a strong running game."
Isn't this true of every QB?
I'm Steelers fan since 1972..WE DONT WANT WILSON!
Please please please NY get him and pay him ALL THE MONEY
Patriots should ask to have a chance with Russell Wilson meeting.
Packers fans have heard fail mary before.
I actually think Russell Wilson wants to go to the Raiders, he will have josh jacobs, rb, Adams wr and a good online with a good defense, but this is the real reason Revenge Russ wants revenge for what the Broncos did to him.
If only the Broncos would treat me so poorly, by giving me $165 million guaranteed
He only wants to go where he thinks he can win a Super Bowl. That rules out the Giants.
I’ll take Russ, focus on building receiver core and the O line as Russ would be basically playing for free. DJ can be a decent back up.
2:07 no good fortune for the Jets since 1969
Danger Witch to the Steelers!!!
OMG what the hell is the new soap opera as the Russ World Turns. Lets talk about how every team is an imaginary fit for Chef Russ. Which team is up next?
Russell Wilson to the Giants makes sense as the veteran QB presence that Joe Schoen wants for his rebuild. It might not make sense for RW if he wants to win now. The Giants have to get more playmakers on both sides of the ball. I would sooner bring RW here as opposed to trading up for a rookie QB and losing draft capital. It also means the Giants can take all the time in the world to make sure Jones is healthy and ready to come back. No need to rush his healing process. Tommy D gets to watch an experienced championship QB show him differently.
Calm down Rich, just because the jets shot their load on a busted up QB, doesnt mean we will make the same mistake as the jets, you see we make stupid mistakes, but we can always count on you guys forever being Paulie Walnuts to our Silvio Dante.
Russell Wilson knows that his image of being difficult and entitled is out there. What better way to defuse that by flying commercial and taking picture with fans! It also lets everybody known that there also more than one team interested with him. Smart move!
I think we need a new name for that play. The replacement refs will forever be the Fail Mary, Packer vs Seahawks. This should be the Hell Mary because it wasn’t just a fail, it was literally a play from hell.
Lets go Russ!
Wow...i was sooo thinking the opposite way...my thought..WHY DOESNT RUSS HAVE ..HIS OWN JET!?!?
My man out here acting like Jesus, y'all know Jesus would've flown spirit just sayan
Why do people talk about Daniel Jones like he's a starting QB?
Because he's the one with the huge contract..
Russell Wilson is definitely an upgrade over Tyrod behind DJ. They paid DJ to be a starter and he'll start next year if healthy.
Goes to show you how everyone who came on this show was wrong. Everyone said Pittsburgh wasn't even considering bringing in another QB
What's so bad about Newark? TBH, i'm from Europe and only have experience with JFK, but i've considered Newark a few times also.
If he goes to Pittsburgh hes the starter.
Rich literally never just gets to the point
He was talking with the Steelers for hours. I feel like that’s a clear indication he has more interest with the steelers
There are much worse airports than Newark. Charlotte, Atlanta, and SLC come to mind immediately
PLEASE - let the Giants grab Wilson!!! His career is, realistically, completely done. I just hope the Steelers don't make ANOTHER dumb offensive decision, after all the ones they've already made for the past 2yrs!!
Stop off at Primanti Brothers, then come back.
You won a chip in this stadium, win your Respect back in this stadium.
NY.
No lie Russ to NYG I didn’t think about but it actually seems once hearing might be a cool fit if they still try get a younger qb under him. Because he’s free to choose and not give up draft capital. And they go for a wr weapon or tackle. And move that bum tackle they drafted to guard
And or pay for some decent receivers in free agency
Russ and Atlanta could work very well
💯
Dabol doesn’t want a rogue QB that only plays hero ball.
Youd think most teams would take wilson if the didnt have a top 5 qb and if he willing to be a back up every team should be down to put him on their roster
Wouldn’t make sense to Have DJ and Russel.
Let me add, look at his wife. Think she wants to be in NYC? Absolutely
Perhaps Russ likes being sacked 83 times.
How many guys at that age wreck an achilles and play 4 more years? Me thinks it’s unlikely
Yuss to Russ!
Seem like Russell's playing for his Rivals?,... Not a good idea. I hope Russell end up in Pittsburgh, I think Ciara wants New York More. And you know what's going to happen.... Hope I'm wrong. Hope Russell does better than ever!. Got to root for the Underdog. Mr. Wilson was done dirty by the Broncos. Glad I haven't watched football much lately. But had to tune in to this news.
This is the day that guy is supposed to call in and admit Danny Dimes sucks
I don't mind Newark at all, I've always been through quick.. JFK on the other hand
Fantasy Team Name: JORDAN LOVE ME
As a Steelers fan, I agree with Rich. I think the Steelers want to give Pickett a shot with a proven OC in Arthur Smith, something he hasn't had in his career with Canada. Arthur has a great track record as a play-caller at the NFL level, that's what gave him the opportunity in Atlanta. Canada was never an OC in the NFL before the Steelers promoted him and ultimately, the lack of experience was his downfall. If you look at the three years under Canada, Roethlisberger had one his worst statistical years in a decade. Ben retires and they signed Mitch and drafted Kenny, and both struggled. Those last three games with Mason were with Sullivan and Faulkner dialing up a lot more pass plays down the field than I've seen under Canada which opened up the offense more than we've seen in a long time. To me, that's why it makes sense to either bring back Mason or go out and bring in Tannehill, who knows Arthur Smith's system and can be like another coach to Kenny and the rest of the offense. Lets not forget, Pittsburgh also had one of the worst O-Lines in the last five years, inconsistent rushing offense (which ranked dead last in the league 4 years ago) and troubles with dropped passes. With all of that together, no wonder their offense has been one of the worst in that time frame.
This Russell Wilson landing talk is hilarious. I don't know what part of having $85 Million strapped to your back isn't a red flag. He can't see the field you guys. Payton tried to coach around this issue, then Russell Wilson would scramble against the plan and....4th down. The 3rd down and red zone numbers for the Broncos offense were terrible. Stink is on point. Good luck.
