I'm a Steelers I'm pretty sure Russ don't Give a fuck about some damn MVP what matters in Pittsburgh is superbowl Titles that's all that matters keep ur MVP that ain't shit
True, and Russ is the MVP of the Steelers. As crazy as it sounds, losing Russ right now would hurt more than losing TJ Watt, even with JF as the backup.
for the record... Russ never left... he was just in a bad environment his two seasons in Denver.. even with that, Russ managed to still play decent his last season in Denver.. clear evidence that he is far from washed

Russ’s injury will be held against him but he will receive votes. I personally believe he should be right in the thick of the conversation if he does that.

Over an 11-game schedule, those numbers look very good. Imagine what he will have if he averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over the last 5 games of the season.

That is absolutely MVP-level sh!t.
The one guy is a hater because, if Russell had played the entire year his, TD, yards, int, QBR would be completely different so, for him to say that Russell wouldn't even be in the MVP conversation is ridiculous, and it's on some hater isht. 💯

@@tyronewilliams2007: No doubt. He could have average just 300 yards and 2 TDs over the 5 games (there are now 4 left) and that would have done it. Because he was under 200 yards and under 60% last week, he will need to have at least one more Bengals-like game and throw 4 TDS on n that game, and then average at least 300 in each of the other 3 games and throw three TDs. They’re going to need him to be special without GP, and they’ll need that run game to be special too. Also, if Russ can pick up 200 rushing yards, that will bolster his case. There is definitely a path to his being discussed as league MVP, and I’m hoping he gets there. I want the Steelers to win out.
A. No they don’t watch Steelers B. They hate the Steelers C. They will still be talking about Arron Rodgers Jets and Cowboys as Steelers get ready to play in AFC CHAMPIONSHIP
I think Nick doesn’t wanna give Russell credit because he was a keep Justin Fields as QB1 guy. Praising Russell at this point would be admitting he was wrong about sitting Justin for Russ.
he has actually given him a lot of credit this year he went into it from the denver season saying he wasn’t good and that this year he has proved him wrong because he didn’t think he could get back to being that qb he once was

In my opinion, I think people have been clowning out the Steelers ever since they had the Killer B’s and never made a Super Bowl run. We have to make people believe we are serious again.
Nick is ashamed about a 5 min topic given Russ his flowers but not the 20 hours of coverage of him saying things like Russ wouldn’t get another job again and Russ wouldn’t even be on Steelers opening roster and that they would have their first losing season with Russ even though they didn’t have one with Mason Rudolph or Kenny Pickett
Bruh your comment 💯 lol if only I could like it 1000s times for everyone to see becuz I remember the media gave us non stop coverage that Russ was done it backfired lmao 🤣

I think the reason a lot of people want the Steelers to play fields. Is they know despite his wins, the offense didn't spark like it does with Russ. They want the Steelers to not have a serious fighting chance.
Bingo! And they also didn’t want Russ to have a chance. They’ve been trying to push him out of the league for done reason. I have a strong theory as to why and who is pushing this. It has nothing to do with Russ as a player. It’s about something business-related. Russ said the wrong thing to the wrong person believing that person sound be impressed, and instead, that person felt threatened, especially when Russ presented a plan! Go back to SB55 and you’ll see scar on talking about. Look at the coverage of Russ sitting with a certain NFL powerbroker. That wasn’t for nothing. Russ has three well-publicized post-NFL goals. One is politics, the other is continuing to grow his brand. The third one worries current NFL leadership. It’s one thing to say you want to be an owner but another to say you want to be a majority owner.

Russ has been elite until he was injured with the worst coach in the league (and later and asshat coach who hated him), has integrity and makes everyone around him better. Mahomes has been spoiled to the point where he is struggling with some minor setbacks. At this point he is winning due to refs, scheming, great defense and absurd special team plays. Mahomes also cannot play under pressure. Look at SB versus Tampa, guy scored 0 touchdowns while runnign for his life. Russ was a top 3 QB for YEARS while running for his life. I'll take Russ over the spoiled golden boy any day.
I’ve said that the last 8 years. I’d take Russ over that fraud mahomes. Mahomes throws so many pics and at the same time is codddled more than anyone in the history of the league
@@The509sfinest Mahomes is a great QB. But media also thinks he farts gold. He gets away with bad play and gets all the praise for the success. For Russ, the opposite is true - if things are not working it's 100% his fault and if he is winning it is because coaching, runnin game, defense or whatever new bs reason the media clowns up with. They move the goal post every time to fit the narrative.
@@arturzinurov4781 I Honestly think steelers would be 12-1 by now if Russ played all games, and THEN he would be in the conversation. Steelers lost two games with JF, by 3 points each. Steelers offense jumped from 21 to 28PPG. He could beat those teams.
Steelers haters gonna' hate. Russ is high in the convo for sure. It's not always about stats or long-term success...this time it's about comebacks! Russ is #1 on that convo.
If/when they beat the Eagles this weekend, what’s how the floodgates open.. we’re watching a team who for the last ~5 years has been a fringe playoff team with absolutely no pulse under center, finally get some competent QB play. Lions are the closest team to looking unbeatable, and that’s at the end of the road. If Russ keeps playing well, the Steelers are a threat.
Russell Wilson is the Steelers MVP for sure.. of course he won’t win MVP, they set him up for failure with the question but not respecting the Steelers as a playoff contender especially with the addition of of RW would be criminal
Nick forgets that only a few people outside the AFCn should be in the conversation, and there is definitely a path for Russ to make things very interesting.

They might still be winning without TJ Watt but they wouldn’t be a legit SB threat without Russ and the kind of play he’s bringing to the QB position. Russ’s ability to spread the ball around forces defensive coordinators to account for 5-10 different receivers every game, and all over the field. That’s a difficult if not impossible task. Mike Tomlin knew that. That was why, other than Russ being his QB1 all along, he didn’t let Fields start another game or two. He knew Fields wasn’t equipped to win the more difficult games on the schedule. *HOW RUSS CAN INSERT HIMSELF INTO THE MVP CONVERSATION* If Russ averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over games 13-17 (5 games), which would be the midpoint between his averages over his first 6 games (vs. the Bengals included) and his single-game performance against the Bengals, and goes undefeated to reach 14-3, he deserves the MVP or at least to insert himself into the conversation. Russ’s injury will be held against him but he will receive votes. I personally believe he should be right in the thick of the conversation if he does that. Even prior to the Browns rematch, he was on pace for *2,981 yards, 18 TDs, and 4 INTs (if we discount that bad no-call in the Bengals game), 66% complete, and a 104.3 passer rating.* Even over a full schedule, those would be nice stats given the team’s record and momentum. Over an 11-game schedule, those numbers look very good. Imagine what he will have if he averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over the last 5 games of the season. His stats for the season will be *3,376 yards, 25 TDs, 5 INTs, 66% complete, and at least the 104.3 passer rating…OVER AN 11-GAME STRETCH!* Over a 17-game schedule, those numbers equate to *5,217 yards, 39 TDS, and 8 INTs.* Coming back from injury to lead a team on a 10-1 tear and put up those kinds of numbers??? That is absolutely MVP-level sh!t.
The games he didn’t start were the super week side of schedule. His stats would be astronomical if he was starting then and we would only have the one loss to the Browns in super soupie conditions. What I call coin toss conditions. Where a team will win 9 out 10 games now might get 6 out of 10 games in those sort of conditions.

Russ is the Steelers’ MVP, and he would be in the top 5 MVPs of the AFCn. Right now, here are the guys I would put in: Josh Allen Lamar Jackson Joe Burrow Derrick Henry Saquan Barkley Jared Goff Sam Darnold Russell Wilson TJ Watt Chris Boswell
I dont know about ths MVP, but to have success he is having as an older player that no one had any expectations for, I think their should be some conversation around Russell Wilson and the Steelers and I also have to give so much credit to Mike Tomlin, he is a great coach, I mean there is this standard he maintains year after year with whatever talent he has at his disposable and I would like to see him win coach of the year, he made a decision that probably wasnt popular with everyone, but his instints propelled the Steelers.
Julian, this was a fake topic and I'm pretty sure this was Nick's idea lmao. A fake topic on this show means you discuss something that's not really serious to them, but they use it as an opportunity to go off on someone lmao. This shit wasn't serious 😂😂😂 Fugazi topic haha
@@brycewavy2053I love how you and many many others use emojis and or even emjois to suggest that it’s laughable like you are sooo right but, you are more than wrong. They have production meetings and they all bring up ideas for the show that day.
Lamar shouldn't be considered. He only throws to wide open receivers, he can't throw timing routes only check downs and wide open, which is all route running and play calling.
The Steelers go against the narrative in which the media desires to push. They are a strong defensive team, with an historic defensive culture. Colin Cowherd, & Nick Wright love the offensive side of the ball.
The reason is people hate consistancy I'm 53 years old and for the majority of my life we've been a winning franchise people are waiting for the time they can say they seen us look bad or have a losing season ...its like Floyd Mayweather he's so good people want to see him lose its the same way with us
Julian, you're on one. The media bias is because the NFL is more of a money machine/hype train than actually about the love of the game. The media plays into this by hyping up certain teams and favoring matchups they'd think would make the most viewership/ money. While the Steelers historically fall into the category of marque teams, the media/ machine roots for Mahomes, Allen, Jackson (despite repeatedly doing badly against the Steelers), and Burrow (despite being 5-8) over a team like the Steelers that seems to be piecing everything together. Thad being said, you usually have spot on takes when it come to how NFL media "analyzes" teams and matchups
I think a lot of media resents having to talk about Pittsburgh as a possible contender after being forced to for a decade of them being /just/ good enough to eke into the playoffs, only to eat shit in the first round.
The topic is non sense simply because they all know the team doesn’t need consistent mvp style of play from Russ to win the bowl. When’s the last time an MVP winner played on a team with a top 5 defense.
Yeah i agree bro u said it this is not analyzing the play of the Pittsburgh Steelers this is a bias against a certain player. Nick says he used to be a russ fan and when somebody gets disappointed they decide sometimes that they can dictate who you are. And who you're not, the problem is just because that's their opinion doesn't make it a fact. And then they will go on live TV and yell proudly as if it is a fact and that people should make fun of people who don't agree. This is always been my problem with Nick. He has these wild LeBron takes completely the opposite of Skip Bayless another person that doesn't go by the facts goes by their feelings. And that's not what we hear someone's opinion on a team for. You hear it to be entertained sure but you also hear it to be updated on the facts. Now Russell like you said has been playing like a top five quarterback. But he's never going to get that recognition because the national media decides this is a guy we can pick on. Because it's not his mentality to respond to the haters. If he can go out here win versus the eagles, shut out the Ravens and beat the Chiefs even if that game is not pretty. It really won't matter if they lose to the Bengals but also I don't know if Joe burrow is going to play in that game. So potentially they can go on a run that cements his legacy by giving the Steelers a shot to be the one seed. And potentially can be the best story in football this year if they can back to a Super bowl
Same russ. Takes too many sacks and fumbles the ball. Predictable interceptions and gameflows when games get behind. Great situation for him though, Defense, 12th man, and head coach.
@lolajones942 it's when the gameflow is out of hand. When there is a lead or one score game it's fine. Sometimes you need to come back from 10 or 14. That's not him.
I’d take Russ over Mahomes. Russ may have been considered inauthentic off the field in some respects, a perception he is changing, but Mahomes is a fraud on the field. He pretends to be injured when he’s not, usually when he’s about to lose a big game and/or is being outplayed by an opposing QB. He pretends scripted plays are ins rooted and exaggerates the side-arm motions and no-looks as if he’s the only QB who can throw side-arm and no-looks. Russ has been doing that sh!t since he was a rookie. He just doesn’t use it to show off. Mahomes is a phony, and he’s not clutch. He gets credit for things he doesn’t do. Andy Reid is the star of that team, not Mahomes.
to me it's been clear for years, the stillerz are the league villain. shows get interaction by knocking us, so they continue, that part's business. but the league itself seems to have adopted so many rules to dissuade the steeler's over-physical style of play on defense thru the years. gildon, lloyd, green, etc.. those cats were the last of the mohicans (ability to toss a mf on his head) and since then, it's like the league has constantly grown towards basically flag football.
Dude thinks he’s voting for MVP of his fantasy league. Since when is MVP been about a teams style of offense? Oh I guess since Lawrence Taylor was give the award. To all the experts Russ was a “washed up never was” who in reality came off of Denver’s couch and completely flipped a Steelers team that hasn’t had an offense in 4-5 years with nearly the exact same players on offense they’ve had for the last 4-5 years.
@@bretthedger291 omg Bills and Ravend have been stuck on stupid for years and they are still taken seriously. I’d take the Steelers over either of those overrated teams
Nick wright don’t respect Jalen hurts but he likes Justin Herbert, he don’t like Russ but he believe in Aaron Rodgers, iffy about a 2 time MVP but rooting for Josh Allen, talks smack about dak n Deshaun Watson but love Trevor Lawrence the prince of the NFL 😂 call a spade a spade bro Nick full of 💩
The consistency of the lack of consistency on this channel is truly special. Video after video giving the majority of the success of Mahomes to Andy Reid, yet no mention of Tomlin once. It’s all Russ. Good to know 😂
@@JWLSports oh, my bad. Please highlight where you gave credit to Tomlin in this video. Any time you talk about the Chiefs, it’s to give Andy Reid the majority of the credit. Please show me where you gave Tomlin the majority of the credit.
Dude, I’ve praised Mike Tomlin every step of the way as well as praised the Steelers OC. You could not be more wrong. And I literally say that Mahomes is one of the greatest QBs of all time.
@@JWLSports dude, at least own what you say. You’ve said over and over that the majority of the credit goes to Reid over Mahomes. Not once in this video did you give Tomlin any credit. It’s all Russ. Asking for take consistency is not a ridiculous thing to ask for.
Man Julian, I wish shows were talking about the epic matchups coming up instead of this too. It actually used to be like that. I miss those days. Now it’s trying to get clickbait almost. Only catering to teams that have a loooooooot of fans like you said. Sad.
Like Wright's son and Family... but the big mouth talker just lost me(and I suspect a bunch of others)... NOT saying Wilson in running for MVP... but season ain't over... and going out of your way to diss a fellow who's making a difference for a team... after being treated like crap--prior... got no use for you, Dude... you just lost me as a fan...(still dig your Family, though)...*shut-up once and awhile and let the other guys speak...

I mean, he missed 6 games. I'm a steelers fan and I think MVP is insane for that reason alone. He'd have to be on a historic pace to be MVP while playing at most 11 games. Come back player of the year for sure. If he played the whole year, though, I think we're 12-1 right now and he kinda has to be in the conversation, if not the favorite.

Mike Tomlin knew that. That was why, other than Russ being his QB1 all along, he didn’t let Fields start another game or two. He knew Fields wasn’t equipped to win the more difficult games on the schedule.
*HOW RUSS CAN INSERT HIMSELF INTO THE MVP CONVERSATION*
If Russ averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over games 13-17 (5 games), which would be the midpoint between his averages over his first 6 games (vs. the Bengals included) and his single-game performance against the Bengals, and goes undefeated to reach 14-3, he deserves the MVP or at least to insert himself into the conversation.
Russ’s injury will be held against him but he will receive votes. I personally believe he should be right in the thick of the conversation if he does that.
Even prior to the Browns rematch, he was on pace for *2,981 yards, 18 TDs, and 4 INTs (if we discount that bad no-call in the Bengals game), 66% complete, and a 104.3 passer rating.* Even over a full schedule, those would be nice stats given the team’s record and momentum. Over an 11-game schedule, those numbers look very good.
Imagine what he will have if he averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over the last 5 games of the season.
His stats for the season will be *3,376 yards, 25 TDs, 5 INTs, 66% complete, and at least the 104.3 passer rating…OVER AN 11-GAME STRETCH!*
Over a 17-game schedule, those numbers equate to *5,217 yards, 39 TDS, and 8 INTs.* Coming back from injury to lead a team on a 10-1 tear and put up those kinds of numbers??? That is absolutely MVP-level sh!t.
@DeCurtaRican Bingo, you and I are on the same page.
@@tyronewilliams2007: No doubt. He could have average just 300 yards and 2 TDs over the 5 games (there are now 4 left) and that would have done it. Because he was under 200 yards and under 60% last week, he will need to have at least one more Bengals-like game and throw 4 TDS on n that game, and then average at least 300 in each of the other 3 games and throw three TDs. They’re going to need him to be special without GP, and they’ll need that run game to be special too.
Also, if Russ can pick up 200 rushing yards, that will bolster his case. There is definitely a path to his being discussed as league MVP, and I’m hoping he gets there. I want the Steelers to win out.
@DeCurtaRican I agree with you, I'm talking about the guy saying that Russell wouldn't be in the conversation even if he played the whole season.
I really appreciate your takes. I get the feeling, most of the time, that these mainstream media members do not actually watch the Steelers.
They don’t watch any game. They just look at the scoreboard and make their takes that way.
itotaly agree with you
A. No they don’t watch Steelers
B. They hate the Steelers
C. They will still be talking about Arron Rodgers Jets and Cowboys as Steelers get ready to play in AFC CHAMPIONSHIP
I’m sorry I never took this guy Nick serious
Good thing. He is extremely biased.
This guy earned a sub calling out how weird the media covers Russell or the Steelers. I also agree the media covers purdy weird aswel
He does not need to be MVP . He just needs another ring 😊 which he is gonna get us
I think Nick doesn’t wanna give Russell credit because he was a keep Justin Fields as QB1 guy. Praising Russell at this point would be admitting he was wrong about sitting Justin for Russ.
Exactly. He is a Fields fanboy.
he has actually given him a lot of credit this year he went into it from the denver season saying he wasn’t good and that this year he has proved him wrong because he didn’t think he could get back to being that qb he once was
Nick already admitted he was wrong about that, but he’s not giving this any serious thought.
Nick forgets that only a few people outside the AFCn should be in the conversation, and there is definitely a path for Russ to make things very interesting. Read on…

In my opinion, I think people have been clowning out the Steelers ever since they had the Killer B’s and never made a Super Bowl run. We have to make people believe we are serious again.
Most sports commentators don't like the Steelers always hating on us and we always prove them wrong.
Nick is ashamed about a 5 min topic given Russ his flowers but not the 20 hours of coverage of him saying things like Russ wouldn’t get another job again and Russ wouldn’t even be on Steelers opening roster and that they would have their first losing season with Russ even though they didn’t have one with Mason Rudolph or Kenny Pickett
Bruh your comment 💯 lol if only I could like it 1000s times for everyone to see becuz I remember the media gave us non stop coverage that Russ was done it backfired lmao 🤣
Nick has always been threatened by Russ…for Mahomes! He will never admit it, but he knows Russ is Mahomes’s and the Chiefs’ Achilles heel.

Who cares.. he just keeps winning. That Nick dude is a Steelers hater.
He’s an even bigger Russ hater.
I think the reason a lot of people want the Steelers to play fields. Is they know despite his wins, the offense didn't spark like it does with Russ. They want the Steelers to not have a serious fighting chance.
Bingo! And they also didn’t want Russ to have a chance. They’ve been trying to push him out of the league for done reason. I have a strong theory as to why and who is pushing this. It has nothing to do with Russ as a player. It’s about something business-related.
Russ said the wrong thing to the wrong person believing that person sound be impressed, and instead, that person felt threatened, especially when Russ presented a plan!
Go back to SB55 and you’ll see scar on talking about. Look at the coverage of Russ sitting with a certain NFL powerbroker.
That wasn’t for nothing. Russ has three well-publicized post-NFL goals. One is politics, the other is continuing to grow his brand. The third one worries current NFL leadership.
It’s one thing to say you want to be an owner but another to say you want to be a majority owner.

I am picking Russ over Mahomes.
Russ has been elite until he was injured with the worst coach in the league (and later and asshat coach who hated him), has integrity and makes everyone around him better. Mahomes has been spoiled to the point where he is struggling with some minor setbacks. At this point he is winning due to refs, scheming, great defense and absurd special team plays. Mahomes also cannot play under pressure. Look at SB versus Tampa, guy scored 0 touchdowns while runnign for his life. Russ was a top 3 QB for YEARS while running for his life.
I'll take Russ over the spoiled golden boy any day.
I’ve said that the last 8 years. I’d take Russ over that fraud mahomes. Mahomes throws so many pics and at the same time is codddled more than anyone in the history of the league
@@The509sfinest Mahomes is a great QB. But media also thinks he farts gold. He gets away with bad play and gets all the praise for the success. For Russ, the opposite is true - if things are not working it's 100% his fault and if he is winning it is because coaching, runnin game, defense or whatever new bs reason the media clowns up with. They move the goal post every time to fit the narrative.
Who is nick wright ? That little man was NEVER an athlete !!

If/when they beat the Eagles this weekend, what’s how the floodgates open.. we’re watching a team who for the last ~5 years has been a fringe playoff team with absolutely no pulse under center, finally get some competent QB play. Lions are the closest team to looking unbeatable, and that’s at the end of the road. If Russ keeps playing well, the Steelers are a threat.
Russell Wilson is the Steelers MVP for sure.. of course he won’t win MVP, they set him up for failure with the question but not respecting the Steelers as a playoff contender especially with the addition of of RW would be criminal
Nick forgets that only a few people outside the AFCn should be in the conversation, and there is definitely a path for Russ to make things very interesting. Read on…
*AFCn*
Lamar (Russ outplays him twice)
Derrick (will lose to Russ twice)
Burrow (Russ won shootout!)
Watt (arg. not team MVP this year)
*Others*
NFCe: Barkley (a RB?)
NFCn: Goff (would be legit!)
NFCn: Darnold (sucked mid-year)
AFCw: Mahomes (Russ is better)
Russ should absolutely be in that conversation. From where I’m sitting, only Goff, Barkley, or Darnold should be either or above Russ.
The only counterargument to Russ’s MVP candidacy is his injury-shortened season (11 games), but there’s a way he can overcome that.
*FIRST, HERE ARE SOME OF RUSS’S EFFICIENCY RANKINGS AS OF WEEK 13*
#1 in YPA (8.7)
#1 in Turnover-Worthy Play% (1.3)
#1 in Pressure% (42.9)
#2 in Passing YPG (271)
#2 in Passing YPA (8.7)
#2 in Passing YPC (13.22)
#5 in Passer Rating (14.3)
#5 in Big-Time Throw% (6.1)
#6 in On-Target%: 78.7
#9 in INT%
#10 in TD% (5.3)
#11 in EPA (28.72)
*IF RUSS ISN’T THE STEELERS’ MVP (OR CO-MVP WITH TJ WATT), IDK WHO IS*
Russ is the Steelers’ MVP this year. They might still be winning without TJ Watt but they wouldn’t be a legit SB threat without Russ and the kind of play he’s bringing to the QB position.
Russ’s ability to spread the ball around forces defensive coordinators to account for 5-10 different receivers every game, and all over the field. That’s a difficult if not impossible task.
Mike Tomlin knew that. That was why, other than Russ being his QB1 all along, he didn’t let Fields start another game or two. He knew Fields wasn’t equipped to win the more difficult games on the schedule.
*HOW RUSS CAN INSERT HIMSELF INTO THE MVP CONVERSATION*
If Russ averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over games 13-17 (5 games), which would be the midpoint between his averages over his first 6 games (vs. the Bengals included) and his single-game performance against the Bengals, and goes undefeated to reach 14-3, he deserves the MVP or at least to insert himself into the conversation.
Russ’s injury will be held against him but he will receive votes. I personally believe he should be right in the thick of the conversation if he does that.
Even prior to the Browns rematch, he was on pace for *2,981 yards, 18 TDs, and 4 INTs (if we discount that bad no-call in the Bengals game), 66% complete, and a 104.3 passer rating.* Even over a full schedule, those would be nice stats given the team’s record and momentum. Over an 11-game schedule, those numbers look very good.
Imagine what he will have if he averages 350 yards, 3 TDs, and 0.4 INTs over the last 5 games of the season.
His stats for the season will be *3,376 yards, 25 TDs, 5 INTs, 66% complete, and at least the 104.3 passer rating…OVER AN 11-GAME STRETCH!*
Over a 17-game schedule, those numbers equate to *5,217 yards, 39 TDS, and 8 INTs.* Coming back from injury to lead a team on a 10-1 tear and put up those kinds of numbers??? That is absolutely MVP-level sh!t.
Pure disrespect, special team's #1,D top 3,offense top 10 rec 10/3 no respect 😤 Go steelers ps:Yeah Coach T also ❤🎉on!!!@
I know one thing, he been playing better than Mahomes!
He has been other than 1 year since mahomes been in league.
The games he didn’t start were the super week side of schedule. His stats would be astronomical if he was starting then and we would only have the one loss to the Browns in super soupie conditions. What I call coin toss conditions. Where a team will win 9 out 10 games now might get 6 out of 10 games in those sort of conditions.
Look at Cam Hayward stats this year

Pittsburgh vs EVERYBODY… Always been that way
Russ is the Steelers’ MVP, and he would be in the top 5 MVPs of the AFCn. Right now, here are the guys I would put in:
Josh Allen
Lamar Jackson
Joe Burrow
Derrick Henry
Saquan Barkley
Jared Goff
Sam Darnold
Russell Wilson
TJ Watt
Chris Boswell
You are so correct.. but nick is the leader of that show, so they needed to do that..
I dont know about ths MVP, but to have success he is having as an older player that no one had any expectations for, I think their should be some conversation around Russell Wilson and the Steelers and I also have to give so much credit to Mike Tomlin, he is a great coach, I mean there is this standard he maintains year after year with whatever talent he has at his disposable and I would like to see him win coach of the year, he made a decision that probably wasnt popular with everyone, but his instints propelled the Steelers.
Julian, this was a fake topic and I'm pretty sure this was Nick's idea lmao. A fake topic on this show means you discuss something that's not really serious to them, but they use it as an opportunity to go off on someone lmao. This shit wasn't serious 😂😂😂 Fugazi topic haha
Agreed.
Haha exactly! Especially when they need to fill 4 minutes before a commercial break
nick doesn’t even make the topics yall he coming up with anything 😭
Of course they do. They have meetings about it. Nick literally mentioned that very thing in this clip. 🤦♂️
@@brycewavy2053I love how you and many many others use emojis and or even emjois to suggest that it’s laughable like you are sooo right but, you are more than wrong.
They have production meetings and they all bring up ideas for the show that day.
Lamar shouldn't be considered. He only throws to wide open receivers, he can't throw timing routes only check downs and wide open, which is all route running and play calling.
The Steelers go against the narrative in which the media desires to push. They are a strong defensive team, with an historic defensive culture. Colin Cowherd, & Nick Wright love the offensive side of the ball.
Little man Nick is super jealous of Russell. It’s not a good look for him & the negative energy Nick gives will bite back hard.
The reason is people hate consistancy I'm 53 years old and for the majority of my life we've been a winning franchise people are waiting for the time they can say they seen us look bad or have a losing season ...its like Floyd Mayweather he's so good people want to see him lose its the same way with us
Do these dudes ever know their numbers? Wildes never knows his numbers.
Nick doesn’t want Russ winning anything because it repositions him next to Mahomes.
Julian, you're on one. The media bias is because the NFL is more of a money machine/hype train than actually about the love of the game. The media plays into this by hyping up certain teams and favoring matchups they'd think would make the most viewership/ money. While the Steelers historically fall into the category of marque teams, the media/ machine roots for Mahomes, Allen, Jackson (despite repeatedly doing badly against the Steelers), and Burrow (despite being 5-8) over a team like the Steelers that seems to be piecing everything together.
Thad being said, you usually have spot on takes when it come to how NFL media "analyzes" teams and matchups
Nick looks like the buzzard from old bugs bunny cartoons 😂
Mike Tomlin coach of the year hands down period!!!!
First of all, anyone who watches sports shouldn’t pay attention to what Nick is saying anyway.
I think a lot of media resents having to talk about Pittsburgh as a possible contender after being forced to for a decade of them being /just/ good enough to eke into the playoffs, only to eat shit in the first round.
The topic is non sense simply because they all know the team doesn’t need consistent mvp style of play from Russ to win the bowl. When’s the last time an MVP winner played on a team with a top 5 defense.
Yeah i agree bro u said it this is not analyzing the play of the Pittsburgh Steelers this is a bias against a certain player. Nick says he used to be a russ fan and when somebody gets disappointed they decide sometimes that they can dictate who you are. And who you're not, the problem is just because that's their opinion doesn't make it a fact. And then they will go on live TV and yell proudly as if it is a fact and that people should make fun of people who don't agree. This is always been my problem with Nick. He has these wild LeBron takes completely the opposite of Skip Bayless another person that doesn't go by the facts goes by their feelings. And that's not what we hear someone's opinion on a team for. You hear it to be entertained sure but you also hear it to be updated on the facts. Now Russell like you said has been playing like a top five quarterback. But he's never going to get that recognition because the national media decides this is a guy we can pick on. Because it's not his mentality to respond to the haters. If he can go out here win versus the eagles, shut out the Ravens and beat the Chiefs even if that game is not pretty. It really won't matter if they lose to the Bengals but also I don't know if Joe burrow is going to play in that game. So potentially they can go on a run that cements his legacy by giving the Steelers a shot to be the one seed. And potentially can be the best story in football this year if they can back to a Super bowl
Actually, the Steelers have a larger fan base. Steelers fan base extend globally. When it comes to American Football 🏈.
Same russ. Takes too many sacks and fumbles the ball. Predictable interceptions and gameflows when games get behind. Great situation for him though, Defense, 12th man, and head coach.
@@AnthonyTodaro-t9f you lost me at predictable interceptions….His stats would be out of this world if he had played all year.
@lolajones942 it's when the gameflow is out of hand. When there is a lead or one score game it's fine. Sometimes you need to come back from 10 or 14. That's not him.
@@AnthonyTodaro-t9frewatch the cincy game. Or the Washington game
Russ is playing normal and happy to see him doing good , but they are winning with Russ not because of Russ.
How can Burrow be in the MVP convo. They are a losing team
COMEBACK PLAYER OF THE YEAR100% MVP.....nah
I’d take Russ over Mahomes. Russ may have been considered inauthentic off the field in some respects, a perception he is changing, but Mahomes is a fraud on the field.
He pretends to be injured when he’s not, usually when he’s about to lose a big game and/or is being outplayed by an opposing QB.
He pretends scripted plays are ins rooted and exaggerates the side-arm motions and no-looks as if he’s the only QB who can throw side-arm and no-looks.
Russ has been doing that sh!t since he was a rookie. He just doesn’t use it to show off. Mahomes is a phony, and he’s not clutch.
He gets credit for things he doesn’t do. Andy Reid is the star of that team, not Mahomes.
Dude not just that if you play madden look at the overalls for players in Pittsburgh
to me it's been clear for years, the stillerz are the league villain. shows get interaction by knocking us, so they continue, that part's business. but the league itself seems to have adopted so many rules to dissuade the steeler's over-physical style of play on defense thru the years. gildon, lloyd, green, etc.. those cats were the last of the mohicans (ability to toss a mf on his head) and since then, it's like the league has constantly grown towards basically flag football.
They don’t like Russ-unfortunately
lol why?
@@JWLSportsI don’t get it.
Comeback player of the year hell yea mvp hell no
Dude thinks he’s voting for MVP of his fantasy league. Since when is MVP been about a teams style of offense? Oh I guess since Lawrence Taylor was give the award. To all the experts Russ was a “washed up never was” who in reality came off of Denver’s couch and completely flipped a Steelers team that hasn’t had an offense in 4-5 years with nearly the exact same players on offense they’ve had for the last 4-5 years.
We are pittsburgh team not America's team we play football for the love of the game
Exactly. Fields was a big reason for the Browns loss.
Lamar is the MVP ! Josh is not Him! Those 3 td's are one yd and he doesn't have the numbers Lamar has!
They can take mvp we'll take SB
What if they knock off KC? 😂that would be crazy
Everyone jealous of the Steelers. Bottom line!
Nick knows Russ is going to ruin his Christmas 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 so afraid 😳😳😳
Credit will start when we beat the Eagles in their house. Let’s GO!
Why is every segment about football? I dare these guys to talk about baseball.
Seems to me all of em are Russ Haters
We need playoff wins, then they take us seriously..
Steelers don’t care about them taking them seriously those guys never played football
@@bretthedger291 omg Bills and Ravend have been stuck on stupid for years and they are still taken seriously. I’d take the Steelers over either of those overrated teams
Russ will win a playoff game. They ain’t losing to Houston, Denver, or chargers
Nick wright don’t respect Jalen hurts but he likes Justin Herbert, he don’t like Russ but he believe in Aaron Rodgers, iffy about a 2 time MVP but rooting for Josh Allen, talks smack about dak n Deshaun Watson but love Trevor Lawrence the prince of the NFL 😂 call a spade a spade bro Nick full of 💩
Russ may be come back player if the year but not MVP
Yeah I mean Russ is doing good but not close to MVP caliber. And I’m a huge Russ fan
The only argument against Russ for MVP is the games played.
He's top 5 QBs and only played 7 games Foh yah hate too much
The consistency of the lack of consistency on this channel is truly special. Video after video giving the majority of the success of Mahomes to Andy Reid, yet no mention of Tomlin once. It’s all Russ. Good to know 😂
You could not be more wrong. Your inability to follow basic takes is truly special
@@JWLSports oh, my bad. Please highlight where you gave credit to Tomlin in this video. Any time you talk about the Chiefs, it’s to give Andy Reid the majority of the credit. Please show me where you gave Tomlin the majority of the credit.
@@JWLSports watched it again, still couldn’t find it. But I guess that’s my “inability to follow basic takes”.
Dude, I’ve praised Mike Tomlin every step of the way as well as praised the Steelers OC. You could not be more wrong. And I literally say that Mahomes is one of the greatest QBs of all time.
@@JWLSports dude, at least own what you say. You’ve said over and over that the majority of the credit goes to Reid over Mahomes. Not once in this video did you give Tomlin any credit. It’s all Russ. Asking for take consistency is not a ridiculous thing to ask for.
Nick is a clown if you’re not LeBron or chiefs is the only thing he knows
Man Julian, I wish shows were talking about the epic matchups coming up instead of this too. It actually used to be like that. I miss those days. Now it’s trying to get clickbait almost. Only catering to teams that have a loooooooot of fans like you said. Sad.
Black head coach that's all I can say
Like Wright's son and Family... but the big mouth talker just lost me(and I suspect a bunch of others)... NOT saying Wilson in running for MVP... but season ain't over... and going out of your way to diss a fellow who's making a difference for a team... after being treated like crap--prior... got no use for you, Dude... you just lost me as a fan...(still dig your Family, though)...*shut-up once and awhile and let the other guys speak...
Nick wrong
If Russell Wilson was on the eagles this year would they have the same record?
I don’t know if they would have the same record
Statistically they’d probably be doing even better offensively
How Philly fans feel about Hurts he might be better
Possibly ya . Russ is a better qb than hurts. Aj brown would be getting 1300 13 tds every year
No one expects Russ to be MVP of Steelers, all Steelers needed was a competent QB to compliment the defense.. Russ is providing just that...
Nick forgets that only a few people outside the AFCn should be in the conversation, and there is definitely a path for Russ to make things very interesting. Read on…

The only counterargument to Russ’s MVP candidacy is his injury-shortened season (11 games), but there’s a way he can overcome that.

Russ’s injury will be held against him but he will receive votes. I personally believe he should be right in the thick of the conversation if he does that.
Even prior to the Browns rematch, he was on pace for *2,981 yards, 18 TDs, and 4 INTs (if we discount that bad no-call in the Bengals game), 66% complete, and a 104.3 passer rating.* Even over a full schedule, those would be nice stats given the team’s record and momentum.

Nick is high
This place sucks
Nick is a hater
ok, this is annoying
Thank you for making this video. You’re amazing for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
🤮
I mean, he missed 6 games. I'm a steelers fan and I think MVP is insane for that reason alone. He'd have to be on a historic pace to be MVP while playing at most 11 games. Come back player of the year for sure. If he played the whole year, though, I think we're 12-1 right now and he kinda has to be in the conversation, if not the favorite.
Of course he could be. Top QB in the NFL in the past 7 weeks
I don't think Nick realized that Wildes was trolling lol
