NFL is rigged sports are rigged. Brady’s dad is a billionaire and Brady is an orchestrated planned character not an “underdog”. Wilson got paid handsomely for throwing game just like Matt Ryan did
@@ItsRodela Marshawn Lynch is a gossiping liar who made that whole story up and Russ just took the high road. Amazing how y’all take the words of guys with DUIS and domestic violence on their rap sheet and who always hated on Russ to his face and behind his back over the word of all his teammates who actually do vouch for Russ.
Maybe it’s because I’m from the UK, but it seems as if Russell is from a rather sheltered middle class family playing with rough boys and neither of whom understand each other. Coaches like Pete Carrol could see the issue and instead of trying to toughen Russ to harsh criticism, they tried to shield it from him and inadvertently created a two-tier system…
That makes sense to me. As a teacher, you find the best way to teach the student. Russell Wilson's background called for a different style of leadership. Too bad, we live in a society that does not make room for people different from ourselves. I hope the Steeler franchise shows the NFL how to do it! By the way, I like Pete C. You cannot define a person's legacy by one decision.
Maybe but what he supposed to do, let practice go full contact with free game at the starting QB? No coach has ever had a career letting their starting QB get hurt in practice
Boom! perfect, and its funny the hypocrisy..... all these struggling por athletes that talk shit about Russ coming from a healthy upbringing with opportunities are now loaded and their kids will be raised in a upper class upbringing with opportunities. Uts that dumb ass backwards hood logic that doesnt make any fucking sense. "Oh your parents are still married, you know your father, and they both have good caeers? I dont like you' "Oh. youre athletiic abilities are so good tht you had the choice to play professional sports in both the NFL or the MLB? I hate you, you aint understand the struggle like us, i hate you." Dumb ass feral logic
Not really, Dudes couldn't stand that he's a narcissist just like his narcissist wife. Nobody else to blame for his undoing but himself. He sucks now anyway and will be out the league in a year or so
Once workaholic Russ became Red Carpet Russ it was beginning of the end. I loved watching him first 5 years but I always thought once his legs go he will be below average.
I can agree with that and it’s so telling because he doesn’t throw it over the middle for quick completions or yards. That told me his reads weren’t getting done.
@@jayo2654 In 2024? I'll be surprised if his numbers are in the top 20 of all QBs. He may not even start actually. Or could play so bad they bench him to play Fields. See what Fields actually has, as he could be there a few years.
Exactly. The horse collar tackle by the 9ers triggered the decline in his legs. The lack of leadership, camaraderie, and accountability in the locker room tore the team apart, and the payday made his head too big for his shoulders.
Just call Russ what he is, a cornball, non hood, weirdo, competitor, self promotor, intelligent, leader, Christian, good guy. The need to prove himself as greater than the team, was his downfall.
Russell is a carnal Christian at best. I feel like he could be less prideful and full of himself. He had no compassion for his team but elevated himself until he got canned by Denver
It was all for the credit. Pete and/or higher ups wanted Russ to get the credit for the win and not Marshawn. It's disgusting that politics cost the team a championship. What a disgrace.
That Super Bowl loss is one of those moments in life where you remember where you were, who you were with and what you were doing. Crazy decision. 🤦🏻♂️
Awkward public persona and lockeroom drama aside, Russell Wilson genuinely was a great QB. One bad season with the Broncos, and a couple more only slightly above average. The rest of his career he was tier 1. As a Seahawks fan, I'm over being angry with him and I absolutely believe he deserves to be in the hall of fame one day
@@twen7yseven Both from a stats perspective and from the perspective of coming in clutch in the big moments, absolutely. Its easy to not like him or focus on 2022, but the dude was incredible on the field most of his career
A fake, unlikable, terrible teammate doesn't deserve the HOF. I was such a big Russ fan at first, even tho I hated the seachickens, but to hear literally every player in the NFL trash him makes complete sense now. FAKE is the perfect word to describe that guy.
@rickrivers2021 one Super Bowl.... congratulations, that's an amazing achievement 👏 🙌 choked every other time with AMAZING players all around him. Not only does he not deserve to be in the hall of fame , but he definitely deserves all the criticism thrown his way, too. He doesn't deserve the HOF, just like he doesn't deserve any popularity contests. Good point
I think what really burnt Seattle fans was when he said he wants to stay in Seattle and won multiple Super Bowls, then gets traded to denver and says he wanted to go some place that knew how to win
@@jaredsmith2092: He did ask to be traded, and that was the only way he COULD be traded. He had a no-trade clause. So the narrative that the Seahawks had “had enough” is 100% bullsh!t. They didn’t want to trade Russ and had spent a year rejecting trade offers.
The best way I've ever heard Russel Wilson's "off the field persona" described as was that he thinks he's a quarterback in a Disney Channel Original Movie
@@jimtimmy93 The best way to describe his haters are those who have more hatred and contempt for a clean cut God fearing articulate black man with no off the field issues than they do with someone who has a criminal rap sheet. Russ would have less hatred if he abused or assaulted women
@@truthbearer7891 Bruh people were fine with/the Seahawks did a good job at hiding his antics when he was a top 5 QB. People only started getting sick of him when he started sucking as a quarterback, it has nothing to do with the drivel you're talking about.
@@jimtimmy93 The fact that it’s characterized as antics proves my point. Nobody ever had a problem with the personality of Andrew Luck or Kirk Cousins. They can be corny or religious or rock the chains in case of Kirk and ppl thing it’s harmless cringe. For Russ it’s seen as character flaw and a source of hatred
As a huge Steeler fan i pray that everything goes well for our team! Russell is doing a good job so far and is working well with the other players especially Justin. ❤❤❤
@@garycollier6950 Seahawks....hands down. I watched it live on TV and dropped to my knees when I saw Malcolm Butler pick it off......will never recover...😭🤔😄
This video left out a very telling story about Russ' time in Denver. The Broncos and Rams played in a Christmas Day game in Russ' first season in Denver. He was getting killed by the Rams d-line. It's customary for the o-lineman to help up the QB after he gets knocked down. But none of the Broncos o-lineman helped Russ get up in this game when he got hit. While the offense was on the sideline Russ told the Broncos backup QB to tell the o-lineman to help him up when he gets knocked down. The backup QB did as Russ asked and told the lineman that they need to pick up Russ, right after he said that o-linemen started pushing the backup QB which resulted in a fight on the sidelines.
Where did you see that Russ told Rypien to say something to the O-line? That hasn't been reported by any Broncos related sources that I'm familiar with
Look I wasn't there, but doesn't take a whole lot of convincing for me to believe every single word of it. The entire Broncos organization (players, coaches, ownership) was absolutely done with his nonsense. Takes some crazy bad blood for a team to say "Take your $39m and get lost. We will take our chances on WHOEVER we can get in the draft then have you spend another day here"
@@loudnoises5372Come on bro, everybody knows that the main reason Russ isn't in Denver anymore is because Sean got his ego hurt because Russ wouldn't change his contract
The hate for Russ is kind of crazzy. Hes not a bad dude. He just out aged his play style. Short, immobile, successful QB's can be counted on 1 finger. Drew Breese, thats about it.
Yeah, if they woulda handed it to Marshawn and they stopped him, would have been able to respecrt it and accept it. But puttin the baby in the street and watchin it get stolen? Hell no. Never gonna forget that.
@@jessicaphoenix1312 Right imma hawks fan and if they woulda lost that after running lynch THREE STRAIGHT TIMES that literally woulda been the hardest most filthy goal line stand in nfl history and id a been totally cool with losing like that
I agree with a pass on that down to maximize all 4 downs, but not a quick pass over the middle. Should have been a quick rollout and throw it out of the endzone if its not there. The quick pass is all timing and it turned out Browner and the Pats had practiced against that specific play. Browner disrupts the rub by Kearse and Lockette can't get to where he needed to be. Deflection and interception. Against the stacked LOS, running Shawn up there is not great and then the clock is running and you have to make a quick play call if you don't get in. What I think really should have happened is instead of taking a timeout to talk about it, you just lineup with who you have on the field and pound it with the Beast. That way NE doesn't get their goal line defense in.
Randy Gregory was a customer of mine. He was super cool and spoke with us candidly. He told that he hadn’t spoken to Russ once. They were already 5 games into the season that year. Randy said, Russ would just pass by guys and wouldn’t speak to them.
So what did he do insult them or even better yet did those guys say hi and he ignore them. Alainorozco, Randy Gregory statement makes him look bad not just Russ. If Russ passed him and not say anything, he Randy could turn and say, " Good morning or afternoon my dude we are teammates you can say hi or something. " If Randy didn't do that he's just as guilty. It's not a law you have to say hi to your co- worker. Get out of here with that story dude. What happens in the locker or in the facilities stay there. Snitching in this case is not acceptable.
@@DavidChambers-r2d My boss is a Seahawks fan and he asked Randy what Russ was like. He was like(I’m paraphrasing), “Don’t know, haven’t met at all.” I was surprised by that. I followed that with, “really?!”. That’s when he told us, they’ve never spoken together and Russ would walk past and ignore everyone. Randy was surprisingly honest. Told us his knee and back were jacked up and was already thinking about retirement. I asked him what his thoughts on Kyle Juszczyk? He said, “fuck that guy!” LOL I’m a Niner fan. I asked him that because I knew from another player, how he felt about Kyle. Clearly Russ took what he learned from Seattle and continued that in Denver. Kept to himself and didn’t endear himself with his teammates.
Broncos fans started talking so much shit to us the second the trade went through. "Seahawks are the worst franchise," "they are going to win two game," blah blah blah. It was glorious watching them cry. Edit: called us classless for booing him, even though he tried to ruin the franchise by getting the coach and gm fired, then forcing his way out and lying about it ti save face. They were booing him by week 2, maybe three.😂😂
Broncos fans Got What they Deserved. They were ignorant and Belligerent when people tried to tell them, Wilson's team mates including his own receivers, Didn't Like Him.
Remember when he tried to get the owner/front office to choose him and Sean Payton over Pete? He ultimately got the pairing he personally wanted, and it fucking blew up in his face spectacularly.
Yep Packer fans are doing the same to us Jet fans over Rodgers last year all I heard from them was how Rodgers cried for a huge paycheck instead of helping team capitol yet Jordan Love just did the same thing only after a half of a hood season an two game playoff run that ended in a pick an bad decision by Love an now they’re all quiet wishing Rodgers to get injured again… Rodgers asked for that money years after being a HOF qb for them when they told him they needed the money they year before to pay players just to let davante Adams go so than Rodgers requested a trade to the broncos or a new contracts an since Russ went to the broncos he couldn’t go with Hackett so he asked for his fair share of money which is crazy that’s why Packer fans hated him esp bc Love did it just now except didn’t even give them the option to pay other players he just held out for a big contract
People called us classless for booing him, but they don't understand why. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady left their teams on mostly good terms. It was understood that it was a business decision. Even if it wasn't good terms, those players never badmouthed their old team or their old city. Heck, Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas left Seattle on less than good terms and even had some things to say about Pete Carroll, but they still said great things about the city. Russ went to the Broncos and spoke to the Denver media saying that he wanted to go to "a team and a city that wants to win and knows how to win". BRUH! How dare you? The only reason you ever won a Super Bowl is because the Legion of Boom totally shut out your opponent. Show some gratitude. Of course we booed him.
@@jimmylowe1233 it's hard to build a team around a "franchise QB" you have to pay $83m to who isn't even good enough to make the team. How Paton wasn't fired is beyond me...
Russ also wanted Pete replaced with Sean Payton who later talked down on him to the media, benched him the last few games to force him to cancel his injury guarantees then unceremoniously released him. Real life Greek Allegory type ish.
You have the entire story twisted! The Broncos approached Russ at the bye week and asked Russ to defer his injury guarantee for a year n exchange for keeping him for the 2024 season and guaranteeing his 2025 salary. You only ask a player to defer an injury guarantee if you’re trying to eliminate the risk of aging that player double-salary, and you only do that if you want to keep him. Russ refused because Payton had been treating him like garbage and losing games on purpose! They wanted to keep Russ. Russ wanted out of Denver. And Payton only benched Russ for the last two games in hopes of losing the last two games and moving up the draft board! Get your stories straight before you tell lies online. This stuff is all online. Do your research.
@@DeCurtaRicanSean under no circumstance wanted to keep Russell. You are a actual fucking retard. “ was it hard to make the decision to get rid of Russell Wilson with the dead cap situation” Sean Payton who answered within half a second. NO. You say do your research but clearly you made up your own bullshit. Please shut the fuck up.
@@PhilAndersonOutside That’s irrelevant to him having preferential treatment. He literally had his own personal trainer allowed and accommodated in the Patriots facility. QBs have red jerseys in practice for a reason. And Brady wasn’t expected to hang out with all of his teammates off the field. Only Russ is held to the standard that not even Kirk Cousins or Andrew Lucks of the world are held to.
@@truthbearer7891 Good luck with the rest of his career, because I think he's done, finished. He'll be lucky to break the top 20 in QB play this year, if he even plays at all. Not a worry for him though, Mr. Unlimited is still making nearly $40m a year with Denver paying, and the same next season as well.
@@PhilAndersonOutside He was literally top 6 in TDs and passer rating last year despite worse situation than he will be in this year. The only hope for his detractors is that he doesn’t stay healthy or many will permanently lose credibility for burying him despite how productive he was last year and how consistent he was the first 9 years of his career with 2022 as clear outlier in a season he was hurt and had worst coach ever in Hackett
When Russ first played for the Broncos, you could feel the crowd all realize at the same time this was a mistake, I've never experienced anything like it, a home game where everyone was, like oh fuck, this is bad
Without that blown last call in the SB against the Pats, Russ would have had a mini dynasty and would be seen better. How do you not just hand it to Beast Mode?!
@@jasonaller2719 Yours is an unbelievably unlikely positioned to take. This unbelievably horrible play call is the stuff of legend... No way Pete Carroll takes responsibility for that if Wilson was actually the one who changed the call in the huddle. No way Wilson comes back the next season with Seattle.
Simple, Carroll called the play, and Carroll was the football genius who has won a national championship with USC, and a Super Bowl with the Seahawks… Hard to question someone with that resume… 🤔
@@venomsupreme I don’t hate ya’ll, I hate the bengals and browns. I respect the hell out of y’all and I love our rivalry. It’s a big deal when we beat Pittsburgh.
A lot of this video I disagree with, but Marshawn saying “Pete, bevel, all them ninjas was trippin” that was absolutely true. Darell bevel was perpetually trippin 😅
Forever labeled as: "The worst call in SB history!" That's glued and cemented on Pete's and Bevel's resume! They both took a toke out the same pipe when they made that call!
What a waste of time!!! On the other hand it shows that many people are still fascinated with RW as one of the most influential QBs of the last 12 yrs.
The problem with Russ was that he was never "one of the guys." He was treated as such and couldn't relate to his teammates and didn't try to relate to them. Another problem is that Russ is mobile, on the run, sideline passer. He was king of breaking out of the pocket and hitting the big play. The only problem is that you can only do that for so long and your athleticism will wear down to the point where you aren't making those defensive ends and linebackers miss. Russ also failed to develop his skills throwing from the pocket and timing. This is what drove Sean Payton nuts because Payton's scheme is all about timing your throws and Wilson's greatest strength was going off script and making broken plays successful. It was honestly a match made in hell. Drew Brees and Russell Wilson were similar in size, but played the position completely different. I also heard that Wilson refused to wear an armband with plays as well. Ultimately, Russ's self promotion, corny antics (high kneeing on the plane ride to London), preferential treatment and declining abilities are the reasons why he is disliked.
Russ could throw with timing. You need to watch some of his games from Seattle. He was definitely doing it in 2018-2020, his best seasons. Brian Schottenheimer, Andrew Luck’s old O.C. in Indianapolis, was Russ’s coordinator from 2018 to 2020, and Russ never looked better, more explosive, or more efficient than he did under Schotty, and that playbook was reportedly very complex. Sean Payton sold y’all a bunch of lies to cover up for the fact that was trying to tank. He only stopped because the NFL league office and the NFLPA started looking up the Broncos’ skirt for making an illegal threat to Russ at the bye week. Look up Seahawks vs. Steelers 2019. It’s a 2-minute, 44 second video. Watch it and tell me Russ couldn’t throw from the pocket, throw over the midfield, or throw with timing. He could do all three! At one point (2012-2017), his passer rating was higher from the pocket than outside of it. It might still be that way. He began using the pocket more as he got older.
There’s no question that Russ has made his share of mistakes, but too many lies or misinterpreted stories are out there. There’s too much negative spin going on, and it’s not all Russ’s fault. I’ve said this from the beginning: the LoB and any of Russ’s other teammates who spoke negatively about Russ outside of the locker room are unworthy of respect! If the front office and via Jing staff were favoring Russ, their beef wasn’t with Russ. Their beef was with the front office and coaching staff! Furthermore, athletes are supposed to follow code: “What happens in the locker room stays in the locker room.” Those Seahawks who turned on Russ or spoke against him violated that code! For that, they are unworthy of respect. We know way more about Russ than we should. Do you think every defensive player over Terrry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, Bart Starr, Tom Brady, or Aaron Rodgers?! I can tell you with confidence that none of them were liked by everyone, and a good number probably weren’t as well-liked as you might assume. We aren’t supposed to know about these political situations that occurs with the teams. The “LoB” stands for another type of “Legion,” Imo. Yeah…do something else with that letter-B, because “boom” ain’t the word! ✌🏾
@@criticaljacques2237it doesn’t fit this dumbasses narrative. He won’t get Russ’s nuts out of his mouth. he’s spit bullshit all over this comment section. 🤣
I was gonna say the same but it started a little bit b4 that. Let Russell cook (plus the 20 pounds he gained from it) showed, Nah, he wasn't that dude. 20 to 25 passes was it. Over that, it got ugly. He had to have a good running game, or you'd get average Russ. He had his moments though. Ask Green Bay.
@@markuclaHe was never hated until his teams started losing. Even the pass that was int. Wasn’t a play called by him. Love ya when your winning hate ya when ya lose. Typical.
@@TravisMcGee151I agree with you to a point, he was IMO tolerated while they were winning but he was never one of the boys as he didn't hang out with them like brothas do. He was coddled by management with privileges and didn't really back the defense up publicly like defensive oriented teams do. 85 Bears for example or Trent Dilfer & the Ravens. Defense oriented teams have a different bond than super offensive teams.
That's a mf lie C has nothing to do with Russ Career . They both support each other . And this video lies. Russ is still cool with a lot of Seattle players and Lynch still stated he would pick Russ as QB .
"Russell Wilson isn't black enough." - Percy Harvin. People forget after that Dallas game in '14. Percy Harvin called out Wilson & was immediately traded to Buffalo.
Wait is that the same Percy Harvin who was a complete basket case, thought he was head coach, skipped practices, refused to play with a sore eyelid, and had 250 yards in two seasons? Yeah they should have extended that guy
@@kenjohnston1257Notice it’s always the guys with multiple character issues who were all gossip kings in a clique against Russ they take the side of over all the other teammates on Seahawks and even the Broncos who vouch for Russ. Even Melvin Gordon who got cut from Broncos had nothing but positive things to say about Russ.
Yeah, two huge "what if" stories and then a couple of journeymen QBs that have lasted the test of time and seen huge success in the NFL, even if not so much postseason for Kirk, dude's made a shitload of money and Wilson's Seahawks career speaks for itself.
Marshawn acting like he’s innocent in his relationship with Russ is laughable. Is it that Russ just didn’t like Lynch for no reason? Russ has too much class to tell his side of the story.
Lynch's policy for dealing with people is if you're not a stand up dude, then F you. Wilson was a smarmy disingenuous joke who reminded me of young Alex Rodriguez. He could pull it off when they were winning, but once the load was on his shoulders he crumbled.
@@JG-ne1sdWhen the load was on his shoulders he was 2nd in the NFL in TDs and wins from 2017 to 2021 with no beast mode or LOB. Y’all are miserable haters
The Super Bowl loss destroyed Russ and Pete Carroll's futures. Pete took the blame for not handing it off to Marshawn Lynch. But, we all know the truth.
Idk why! Russ owns Mahomes. They have matched up 5 times, and Russ has outperformed Mahomes in 4 of those contests. If his Broncos team had been better, he would be 5-0 against you. He should’ve won both 2022 contests against the Chiefs anyway. The only reason he didn’t win the first 2022 matchup, singlehandedly I might add, is because former Seahawks teammate (and later Broncos teammate) Frank Clark pancaked him when he was about to score the game-winning TD. Andy Reid has no answer for Russ, and Mahomes sh!ts yellow runny stuff when Russ is on the other sideline. 😂 That’s that yellow stain you see in his pants matching the Chiefs’ uniform. But don’t worry…the Chiefs could wind up facing Russ twice this year with Pittsburgh, and the stakes will be much higher if they do. 😏
That SB loss was a permanent stain on Russ. There’s absolutely no escaping it! That loss fractured the entire team. 1 year later Seahawks management blew up the defense. There’s your HOF quarterback!
Honestly, the way the Seahawk fanbase has acted toward the only qb to give them a suberbowl ring is a stain on "12". They really act like he never won a ship for them 🤦♂️
The Russ drama doesn’t make sense lol he’s a Super Bowl winning qb of course he’s gonna be treated differently by staff than the star corner or defensive players… this coming from a former DB
The Russ hatred is because of bigotry and ppl who want to push dysfunction in black community. Russ is a threat to status quo because if more black men were like Russ you wouldn’t have so many broken homes
Man he the winningest Qb in his first 9 years you don’t do that if you not good… Tom Brady said it himself when you a vet QB the coordinator has to adapt to your play calling which y’all organization didn’t do
The seachickens fans might be the least likable “fans” in the NFL. Now that Pete’s cock is out of their mouth, they can at the humble pie they deserve. Enjoy riding GeNo into your graves 😂😂😂
I cannot stand the Broncos and am a die hard Raiders fan and even I feel kind of bad for them. Nobody deserves that shit. As any fan would be they were happy that they might finally have all the pieces to the puzzle and were gloating over it, normal behavior, we all do that shit. What they got in the deal wasn't what they thought and it went bad fast. Sucks to be them but they definitely didn't deserve the sack of shit they paid 245 mil and a good portion of their immediate future for.
@@ErlingEra Meanwhile Seahawks are back to irrelevant franchise with no realistic chance of playoff success or even perennial playoff appearances for years to come just like they were before Russ.
There's a reason that Carroll had a run heavy offence. Mr. Unlimited is a great QB on play action bootlegs, and is really good at rolling out and making something happen when the play breaks down. As it turns out, that's his entire skill set. He went to Denver and convinced a terrible first-time head coach that he could be a pocket passer. He also seemed to spend a lot of his energy promoting his brand. Then, last year, a great head coach figured out that Russ couldn't run his offense. On to Pittsburgh. Glad he's out of Denver. Feel bad for Steelers fans.
Wasn't that play . It was 2 weeks prior when the refs stole the game from the better team in sf. They are cursed for the shenanigans that happened that game, many shenanigans.
That's why we can't let Trump pass School Choice! Imagine a world where any kid could leave a failing school and get a good education at a better one. Vote Democrat to stop this from happening.
Lol! That's crazy talk. Busted Wilson is nothing without the Legion Of Boom and Lynch. If you put Romo or Dak with those teams.....Multiple champions easy.
@@michaelrasmussen7357 I guarantee Romo and Dak throw a late game pick to get sent home in the first round. Y’all constantly disrespect Russ like he was a bum or something. Russ did his job very well in Seattle to help them get to those Super Bowls. Y’all weird bruh.
@@michaelrasmussen7357 and those jokers never play in a super bowl without out Russell scrambling behind a shitty pass protecting line. I lived in seattle 2008 to 2020,saw the games Russell won at least 4 games both super bowl years they should have lost with his play alone
"Danger-Russ" is a 100% *cornball* . And, also ... it's ridiculous that he is penalized for coming from 2 good parents and a good upbringing.🙄 Are we seriously doing this?? No wonder we will never get ahead...
@@Tom-y1jmost of those players came from a different background from him and have envy against him because he may have grew up in a better situation. The other players were divas and didn't want to put THEIR ego aside.
Thank you. I kept reading the comments waiting for someone to stand up for Wilson. Wilson comes from a great family, educated and talented. Instead of celebrating that he is hated because " he's not one of us." What does that mean? Here we go the ole " crabs in a barrel syndrome."
I can tell y’all are not educated by this comment and the replies. Dude was not saying his upbringing was bad. He was simply stating that with all his antics plus his upbringing it affected the chemistry with the other players who came from lower class environments. They just couldn’t relate
@@RayJovjov Heh, yeah, OK. So where did you go to school, bruh? What is your degree in? He felt it was important enough to highlight that "he went to a private school, while mom & dad had amazing jobs" (7:38), as if it's something we hold against him. We seen the same type of shit even amongst pro athletes in the recent past (rumblings between lebron and Steph Curry during the mid-2010's, because Steph came from 2 good parents, not from the hood, not from the struggle ... or even further back, Grant Hill coming from 2 highly educated parents, son of a former pro NFL player, and the flack he got from U of Michigan players of the 90s). But, okay bruh, I will fall back, Mr. Educated Rhodes Scholar.
GREAT VIDEO...Russ was so fun to watch, he was a "Big game hunter" as a QB (Nate Tice) and i had so many fun Sundays and Monday Nights etc watching him. He is a 1rst ballot HOFer. But now in 2024 hes not cooking anymore hes cooked so he needs to retire and take a job on TV. GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU !!!!!!
Wilson is in no way "a 1rst ballto HOFer." He would be extremely lucky to even get in the HOF. He was generally the 6th to 8th best qb in the league in his prime.
@@jasonmay6368 Cool but look up the stats of first ballot QB HOFers and then tell me Russ isnt. Hes one of the top 20 QBs of all time. LOVE YOUR NAME LOL
@@aprx1814 Or that Lynch is a loose cannon himself with off the field issues, same with Percy Harvin and the rest of the clique that hated Russ. It’s all same reason why ppl ignore all of Russ teammates on Seahawks and Broncos who vouch for him. Russ is poster child for how much bias there is against a black QB esp one who doesn’t fit any stereotypes and one who has deep religious convictions with no rap sheet off the field. He’s basically a threat to the system. Because the entire system of white supremacy would be cooked if more black men conducted themselves like Russ and not like the toxic images they promote instead
As a hawk fan, the reason for the booing at 19:20 was about a week or 2 before he was traded Russ made a statement saying he wanted to stay in seattle and retire here. Then a week later it came out he was going to denver. Felt like a slap in the face to the 12's. If he had said he wanted to leave and then was traded I honestly believe he wouldnt have been booed. I also will die on the hill that Ciara ruined this man. It was all downhill and celebrity/cringe russ after that.
It’s sounds to me like he soft it’s a gentlemanly sport with a TON of constructive/destructive criticism that’s why coaches look for QBS with patience or fiery energy.
They still had another down to work with. Wilson could've thrown it away but he wanted to be the hero. That's on him. Carrol knew the Patriots were looking for the run. Wilson forced a pass. It's on him, not Carrol.
It's like I keep telling Seahawks fans that have maybe watched up to 5 seasons of football at the most..... there's no guarantee that Lynch would have busted through and made the TD. You could have had Emmit, Barry, LT, or Dorsett in there and they may not have gotten through either. I've never, ever, seen you guys make mention of other plays either such as a QB Sneak.
Or you know maybe Butler just made a hell of a play. I still believe you got to run the ball there but don't take anything away from Butler that was a hell of a clutch interception
@@m8x425in that point of his carrer beastmode was one of the best if not the best goal line rb in the league. Just the play before he picked up 4 yards and only needed one more to get the td. Why will they do a qb sneak with a undersized qb when they have marshawn? Stop defending the indefensible. If it was a fourth down yeah I get the call, but it was second down. Even people who didn’t know how football works knew how dumb that playcall was, its logical.
My man Russ got that bell-pepper nose. He was one of my favorite QBs in the league way back, then he started gettin weird. At least thats when i noticed. He'll be a HoF'r.
Throwing the ball instead of running never made sense to me, especially as a pats fan who watched Lynch get 5 or 6 yards every time he got the ball, it makes so much more sense that they were favoring Russ and wanted to feed him an MVP title
Well I’m still crushed, always will be. But that’s because I know the Greek tragedy-history of Seattle’s sports 🤦🏻♀️ Yeah….. it’s been a long road of suck and heartbreak
Regarding Russ not being “hood”. That’s not the issue with teammates relating to Russ. From the countless stories, interviews, podcasts from teammates and former teammates… the overwhelming takeaway I get is he’s disingenuous. “Hood” dudes have remarkable way of accepting/ interacting with non hood dudes… if that person is genuine and honest about who they are. One thing that “Hood” dudes despise is that of someone who is “two faced” ~ disingenuous. I would imagine, also through vicarious experiences that an offensive lineman with midwestern roots, and values “think and carry themselves accountable in that same manner “ At the end of the day, despite various cultural differences, race, social upbringing, grown men respect self accountability. He could be a cornball, non hood, black man, and be accepted… and not be “fake”. Russell Wilson for all the options offered has a fake personality. Rubs many the wrong way. Russell Wilson was a good-great game manager and playmaker early in his career, with a great deep ball. If not for that legendary defense, that ushered NFL defenses into the modern era on ways to defend the pass. He put up good numbers just last season. For the majority of his career he’s been above average… Unfortunately as he’s aged his play making abilities have fallen off, and while he still can throw it, has glaring flares handicap him. His reluctance, nearly non existent ability to throw over the middle, His tendency to lock onto a receiver, can prove to be problematic
Both men raised themselves up out of inner city povery to excellent universities through their athletic talents and exceptional intellect. What's so hard to understand?
Could not be happier to have the MASSIVE dead cap hit on the broncos to not have russ play QB. Sean Payton did what he could to get him back on track but obviously feels the same.
It's simple Russell doesn't act "black" and most black players hate guys like that. They consider it being fake. Russell didn't want to hang out with them because they they have poor values and act like thugs even though they are millionaires. He doesn't need to waste his time with people like that. Say what you want but Russell is the man.
Facts. Because Russ didn’t relate to the perceived struggles of those degenerates, they all think he sold out. Don’t hate because he smarter than you and he ain’t hood. Bunch of loud mouth losers. Talking bout you Richard Sherman.
As harsh as it sounds, I agree with you. We see this played out all over the world. I wasn't considered " black enough" by some in my own profession. Russell is the man!
Niner fan here, but also a fan of that prime Seattle team. Especially with the number of Cal/ Stanford players. Doug Baldwin was cool too. Team should have two Lombardi trophies.
@@TheTruthAsEyeKnowItLike us? 😂😂😂 The Seahawks are a trash franchise and a trash fanbase. The Niners are in the upper echelon of all NFL franchises and NFL royalty. Nobody wants to be like you. You’re an insecure short guy.
Man you ain't a fan if you a fan of that team. I respect the hell out of the legion of boom.... but they can eat shit till the day they die for kicking our asses
He thinks hes the reason the seahawks were so good. Hes the reason they dont have a dynasty. His stint in Denver proved he isnt an all star. It proved his team in seattle carried him, and not the other way around.
Or maybe it's because defense knew they would run the ball so Pete called the opposite play to happen. Unfortunately it ended with a pick and there wasn't another chance.
It's always two sides of the story... why is Russ blamed for being favored by his coach? Blamed for the play called in the second Super Bowl? Blamed for marrying a celebrity. Favor is not fair and usually has nothing to do with us. I appreciate Russ visiting regularly the Children's hospital in Seattle. It's easy to hate when people don't understand your life...
I'm a Seattle native and appreciated Russ for his contribution to the Seahawks. I admit I never liked him personally but admire what he was able to accomplish despite his shortcomings. I understood his departure from Seattle and wished him best, no worries about Denver much until reach the Superbowl. I wished him well and followed the Broncos the past 2 years, it didn't go well. Funny< I root for him now than I ever had to for the 'Hawks.
@@bc6542 It’s different Russ is black. Ppl have a problem with other black men in positions of leadership and hold them to diff standard. That’s why they make it a bad thing that Russ wasn’t cool with every teammate off the field including ones who disrespected him to his face. They would never hold that same standard for a Kirk Cousins or Andrew Luck
Russ was amazing. I bought his jersey. I loved watching him play and speaking after the games. Over time he was much more concerned about this brand and that's when it went downhill. He was just as much a problem in Denver as the coaching. His last couple of years in Seattle were not all that impressive. I'm surprised Denver gave us what they did after watching his decline before the trade.
I did some work at Children’s hospital in Seattle. Wilson went every week and visited kids. He had a special spot he parked at the loading dock. One of the times he showed up the camera man didn’t show and Wilson left without going in 🤦♂️
I will do you one better, him and Michael Robinson are from Richmond,VA…while Micheal and other Seahawk players have came MANY times to help run camps/events/etc. guess who has NEVER came back!?! And his high school field is named after his father, smh…
@@markpenn9535 he said he was waiting for the camera man, waited a couple minutes and then left so pretty obvious what happened imo but yeah there’s a tiny chance something else popped up. Whatever his motivations it’s still good he went so often. Just a bad look and it fits with other things I hear.
@BobDoba I think it's much more likely that you are making this story up just to make him look bad so you fit in with the theme of the video and this thread. Sorry bro some people can still critically think
Matt Flynn upset because he didn’t perform to keep that starting spot and got beat out by Russ is Russ problem? It was not like he was the first pick of the draft coming in expecting to perform right away with a million dollar signing bonus. He was a third round pick that came in and performed
@@dwaynekeenum1916 Yes, it is weird that this is one of my main associations of Russ, I agree. I don't know why I carry this memory with me at all times. Maybe because this was at the peak of me being invested in college football. I'm not even a fan of either team. I just remember that this was a huge deal that TCU won that game and Russ was the losing QB.
I really appreciate yall boys for rocking with my vids! Got a big month ahead for yall 🫡
You sound like you barely made it out of elementary school! Get a dialect coach, and do better research on this topic.
A man's focus changes with external distractions as well, his marriage to Ciara July 2016 didn't help.
I’m not a huge fan of Rus but to me it seems like everyone is ganging up on him. They need to let it go.
Thanks for the internal review of this premondonna
im sure youll keep making more negative content like all youtubers do nowadays.
that superbowl loss is still mind blowing
As a loud and proud 12…it was a gut punch.
NFL is rigged sports are rigged. Brady’s dad is a billionaire and Brady is an orchestrated planned character not an “underdog”. Wilson got paid handsomely for throwing game just like Matt Ryan did

Calling a time out just to tell your team to stop picking on you is wild af😂
Maybe it’s because I’m from the UK, but it seems as if Russell is from a rather sheltered middle class family playing with rough boys and neither of whom understand each other. Coaches like Pete Carrol could see the issue and instead of trying to toughen Russ to harsh criticism, they tried to shield it from him and inadvertently created a two-tier system…
That makes sense to me. As a teacher, you find the best way to teach the student. Russell Wilson's background called for a different style of leadership. Too bad, we live in a society that does not make room for people different from ourselves. I hope the Steeler franchise shows the NFL how to do it! By the way, I like Pete C. You cannot define a person's legacy by one decision.
Your very much correct that's the issue I don't know why people don't just say he's different from me and that's that.
Maybe but what he supposed to do, let practice go full contact with free game at the starting QB? No coach has ever had a career letting their starting QB get hurt in practice
Boom! perfect, and its funny the hypocrisy..... all these struggling por athletes that talk shit about Russ coming from a healthy upbringing with opportunities are now loaded and their kids will be raised in a upper class upbringing with opportunities.
Uts that dumb ass backwards hood logic that doesnt make any fucking sense.
"Oh your parents are still married, you know your father, and they both have good caeers? I dont like you'
"Oh. youre athletiic abilities are so good tht you had the choice to play professional sports in both the NFL or the MLB? I hate you, you aint understand the struggle like us, i hate you."
Dumb ass feral logic
Not really, Dudes couldn't stand that he's a narcissist just like his narcissist wife. Nobody else to blame for his undoing but himself. He sucks now anyway and will be out the league in a year or so
Once workaholic Russ became Red Carpet Russ it was beginning of the end.
I loved watching him first 5 years but I always thought once his legs go he will be below average.
I can agree with that and it’s so telling because he doesn’t throw it over the middle for quick completions or yards. That told me his reads weren’t getting done.
I don't think Russ is below average.
@@jayo2654 In 2024? I'll be surprised if his numbers are in the top 20 of all QBs. He may not even start actually. Or could play so bad they bench him to play Fields. See what Fields actually has, as he could be there a few years.
Exactly. The horse collar tackle by the 9ers triggered the decline in his legs. The lack of leadership, camaraderie, and accountability in the locker room tore the team apart, and the payday made his head too big for his shoulders.
@@paradigmwatch24 "Poor coaching". You mean Pete Carroll and Sean Payton?
Just call Russ what he is, a cornball, non hood, weirdo, competitor, self promotor, intelligent, leader, Christian, good guy. The need to prove himself as greater than the team, was his downfall.
Russell is a carnal Christian at best. I feel like he could be less prideful and full of himself. He had no compassion for his team but elevated himself until he got canned by Denver
And who are you 🤔 yea a nobody shut your ass up
Most of things you listen are not even downsides..
the entire country said "why would you throw it"
Bro I was going for tom &’ yelled why would you throw it? Idc what Pete said give beast the ball

@@jeffnak5598Uh-uh. The entire country *yelled* “WHY WOULD YOU THROW IT?!?!?!”

@@drehunt30 It came down from the league office and the Pats knew it was coming.
Awkward public persona and lockeroom drama aside, Russell Wilson genuinely was a great QB. One bad season with the Broncos, and a couple more only slightly above average. The rest of his career he was tier 1.
As a Seahawks fan, I'm over being angry with him and I absolutely believe he deserves to be in the hall of fame one day
For winning ONE superbowl With an all-time defense and RB? Then floundering the rest of his cringe career? I don't think so.
@@twen7yseven Both from a stats perspective and from the perspective of coming in clutch in the big moments, absolutely. Its easy to not like him or focus on 2022, but the dude was incredible on the field most of his career
A fake, unlikable, terrible teammate doesn't deserve the HOF. I was such a big Russ fan at first, even tho I hated the seachickens, but to hear literally every player in the NFL trash him makes complete sense now. FAKE is the perfect word to describe that guy.

Not only does he not deserve to be in the hall of fame , but he definitely deserves all the criticism thrown his way, too. He doesn't deserve the HOF, just like he doesn't deserve any popularity contests. Good point
I think what really burnt Seattle fans was when he said he wants to stay in Seattle and won multiple Super Bowls, then gets traded to denver and says he wanted to go some place that knew how to win
Less than two weeks later...
And it leaked that he ASKED to be traded.
Facts
He didn’t say Seattle didn’t know how to win. He was comparing Denver to his other options, NOT Seattle! Clearly, he knew Seattle knew how to win.
@@jaredsmith2092: He did ask to be traded, and that was the only way he COULD be traded. He had a no-trade clause. So the narrative that the Seahawks had “had enough” is 100% bullsh!t. They didn’t want to trade Russ and had spent a year rejecting trade offers.
The best way I've ever heard Russel Wilson's "off the field persona" described as was that he thinks he's a quarterback in a Disney Channel Original Movie
I think this is funny.
@@jimtimmy93 The best way to describe his haters are those who have more hatred and contempt for a clean cut God fearing articulate black man with no off the field issues than they do with someone who has a criminal rap sheet. Russ would have less hatred if he abused or assaulted women
@@truthbearer7891 Bruh people were fine with/the Seahawks did a good job at hiding his antics when he was a top 5 QB. People only started getting sick of him when he started sucking as a quarterback, it has nothing to do with the drivel you're talking about.

This video left out a very telling story about Russ' time in Denver. The Broncos and Rams played in a Christmas Day game in Russ' first season in Denver. He was getting killed by the Rams d-line. It's customary for the o-lineman to help up the QB after he gets knocked down. But none of the Broncos o-lineman helped Russ get up in this game when he got hit. While the offense was on the sideline Russ told the Broncos backup QB to tell the o-lineman to help him up when he gets knocked down. The backup QB did as Russ asked and told the lineman that they need to pick up Russ, right after he said that o-linemen started pushing the backup QB which resulted in a fight on the sidelines.
Where did you see that Russ told Rypien to say something to the O-line? That hasn't been reported by any Broncos related sources that I'm familiar with
Shh dude got insider info and you want him to tell you how he got it. Bro may have been there. I can confirm bro may have been there. Come on dawg.
Look I wasn't there, but doesn't take a whole lot of convincing for me to believe every single word of it. The entire Broncos organization (players, coaches, ownership) was absolutely done with his nonsense. Takes some crazy bad blood for a team to say "Take your $39m and get lost. We will take our chances on WHOEVER we can get in the draft then have you spend another day here"

@@jessicaphoenix1312
Right imma hawks fan and if they woulda lost that after running lynch THREE STRAIGHT TIMES that literally woulda been the hardest most filthy goal line stand in nfl history and id a been totally cool with losing like that
I agree with a pass on that down to maximize all 4 downs, but not a quick pass over the middle. Should have been a quick rollout and throw it out of the endzone if its not there. The quick pass is all timing and it turned out Browner and the Pats had practiced against that specific play. Browner disrupts the rub by Kearse and Lockette can't get to where he needed to be. Deflection and interception.
Against the stacked LOS, running Shawn up there is not great and then the clock is running and you have to make a quick play call if you don't get in.
What I think really should have happened is instead of taking a timeout to talk about it, you just lineup with who you have on the field and pound it with the Beast. That way NE doesn't get their goal line defense in.
@@bipedalcanine no time on the clock to run it 3 times, thus the pass call on 2nd down.
Randy Gregory was a customer of mine. He was super cool and spoke with us candidly. He told that he hadn’t spoken to Russ once. They were already 5 games into the season that year. Randy said, Russ would just pass by guys and wouldn’t speak to them.
So what did he do insult them or even better yet did those guys say hi and he ignore them. Alainorozco, Randy Gregory statement makes him look bad not just Russ. If Russ passed him and not say anything, he Randy could turn and say, " Good morning or afternoon my dude we are teammates you can say hi or something. " If Randy didn't do that he's just as guilty. It's not a law you have to say hi to your co- worker. Get out of here with that story dude. What happens in the locker or in the facilities stay there. Snitching in this case is not acceptable.
@@DavidChambers-r2d My boss is a Seahawks fan and he asked Randy what Russ was like. He was like(I’m paraphrasing), “Don’t know, haven’t met at all.” I was surprised by that. I followed that with, “really?!”. That’s when he told us, they’ve never spoken together and Russ would walk past and ignore everyone. Randy was surprisingly honest. Told us his knee and back were jacked up and was already thinking about retirement. I asked him what his thoughts on Kyle Juszczyk? He said, “fuck that guy!” LOL I’m a Niner fan. I asked him that because I knew from another player, how he felt about Kyle.
Clearly Russ took what he learned from Seattle and continued that in Denver. Kept to himself and didn’t endear himself with his teammates.
Broncos fans started talking so much shit to us the second the trade went through. "Seahawks are the worst franchise," "they are going to win two game," blah blah blah. It was glorious watching them cry.
Edit: called us classless for booing him, even though he tried to ruin the franchise by getting the coach and gm fired, then forcing his way out and lying about it ti save face. They were booing him by week 2, maybe three.😂😂

@@autiebell1357 👍
Remember when he tried to get the owner/front office to choose him and Sean Payton over Pete? He ultimately got the pairing he personally wanted, and it fucking blew up in his face spectacularly.
Yep Packer fans are doing the same to us Jet fans over Rodgers last year all I heard from them was how Rodgers cried for a huge paycheck instead of helping team capitol yet Jordan Love just did the same thing only after a half of a hood season an two game playoff run that ended in a pick an bad decision by Love an now they’re all quiet wishing Rodgers to get injured again… Rodgers asked for that money years after being a HOF qb for them when they told him they needed the money they year before to pay players just to let davante Adams go so than Rodgers requested a trade to the broncos or a new contracts an since Russ went to the broncos he couldn’t go with Hackett so he asked for his fair share of money which is crazy that’s why Packer fans hated him esp bc Love did it just now except didn’t even give them the option to pay other players he just held out for a big contract
People called us classless for booing him, but they don't understand why. Peyton Manning and Tom Brady left their teams on mostly good terms. It was understood that it was a business decision. Even if it wasn't good terms, those players never badmouthed their old team or their old city. Heck, Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas left Seattle on less than good terms and even had some things to say about Pete Carroll, but they still said great things about the city. Russ went to the Broncos and spoke to the Denver media saying that he wanted to go to "a team and a city that wants to win and knows how to win". BRUH! How dare you? The only reason you ever won a Super Bowl is because the Legion of Boom totally shut out your opponent. Show some gratitude. Of course we booed him.

Russ also wanted Pete replaced with Sean Payton who later talked down on him to the media, benched him the last few games to force him to cancel his injury guarantees then unceremoniously released him.
Real life Greek Allegory type ish.
That was a lie. Russ was at Pete Carroll’s retirement party…WITH Richard Sherman.
You have the entire story twisted!
The Broncos approached Russ at the bye week and asked Russ to defer his injury guarantee for a year n exchange for keeping him for the 2024 season and guaranteeing his 2025 salary. You only ask a player to defer an injury guarantee if you’re trying to eliminate the risk of aging that player double-salary, and you only do that if you want to keep him.
Russ refused because Payton had been treating him like garbage and losing games on purpose!
They wanted to keep Russ. Russ wanted out of Denver.
And Payton only benched Russ for the last two games in hopes of losing the last two games and moving up the draft board!
Get your stories straight before you tell lies online. This stuff is all online. Do your research.
That's karma
@@DeCurtaRicanSean under no circumstance wanted to keep Russell.

What starting quarterback isn’t treated differently though 🤷🏾
Tom Brady actually took pay cuts, and restructured his deals in order to help teammates.
@@PhilAndersonOutside That’s irrelevant to him having preferential treatment. He literally had his own personal trainer allowed and accommodated in the Patriots facility. QBs have red jerseys in practice for a reason. And Brady wasn’t expected to hang out with all of his teammates off the field. Only Russ is held to the standard that not even Kirk Cousins or Andrew Lucks of the world are held to.
@@truthbearer7891 Good luck with the rest of his career, because I think he's done, finished. He'll be lucky to break the top 20 in QB play this year, if he even plays at all.
Not a worry for him though, Mr. Unlimited is still making nearly $40m a year with Denver paying, and the same next season as well.
@@PhilAndersonOutside He was literally top 6 in TDs and passer rating last year despite worse situation than he will be in this year. The only hope for his detractors is that he doesn’t stay healthy or many will permanently lose credibility for burying him despite how productive he was last year and how consistent he was the first 9 years of his career with 2022 as clear outlier in a season he was hurt and had worst coach ever in Hackett
Jeff Garcia and Steve Young. Former teammates still have high regard for both, except for T.O. on Garcia ()
When Russ first played for the Broncos, you could feel the crowd all realize at the same time this was a mistake, I've never experienced anything like it, a home game where everyone was, like oh fuck, this is bad
Without that blown last call in the SB against the Pats, Russ would have had a mini dynasty and would be seen better. How do you not just hand it to Beast Mode?!
They didn’t marshawn to get mvp. It’s as simple as that.

Yours is an unbelievably unlikely positioned to take. This unbelievably horrible play call is the stuff of legend... No way Pete Carroll takes responsibility for that if Wilson was actually the one who changed the call in the huddle. No way Wilson comes back the next season with Seattle.

They both took a toke out the same pipe when they made that call!
What a waste of time!!!
On the other hand it shows that many people are still fascinated with RW as one of the most influential QBs of the last 12 yrs.
The problem with Russ was that he was never "one of the guys." He was treated as such and couldn't relate to his teammates and didn't try to relate to them. Another problem is that Russ is mobile, on the run, sideline passer. He was king of breaking out of the pocket and hitting the big play. The only problem is that you can only do that for so long and your athleticism will wear down to the point where you aren't making those defensive ends and linebackers miss. Russ also failed to develop his skills throwing from the pocket and timing. This is what drove Sean Payton nuts because Payton's scheme is all about timing your throws and Wilson's greatest strength was going off script and making broken plays successful. It was honestly a match made in hell. Drew Brees and Russell Wilson were similar in size, but played the position completely different. I also heard that Wilson refused to wear an armband with plays as well. Ultimately, Russ's self promotion, corny antics (high kneeing on the plane ride to London), preferential treatment and declining abilities are the reasons why he is disliked.
Russ could throw with timing. You need to watch some of his games from Seattle. He was definitely doing it in 2018-2020, his best seasons.
Brian Schottenheimer, Andrew Luck’s old O.C. in Indianapolis, was Russ’s coordinator from 2018 to 2020, and Russ never looked better, more explosive, or more efficient than he did under Schotty, and that playbook was reportedly very complex.
Sean Payton sold y’all a bunch of lies to cover up for the fact that was trying to tank. He only stopped because the NFL league office and the NFLPA started looking up the Broncos’ skirt for making an illegal threat to Russ at the bye week.
Look up Seahawks vs. Steelers 2019. It’s a 2-minute, 44 second video. Watch it and tell me Russ couldn’t throw from the pocket, throw over the midfield, or throw with timing. He could do all three!
At one point (2012-2017), his passer rating was higher from the pocket than outside of it. It might still be that way. He began using the pocket more as he got older.
There’s no question that Russ has made his share of mistakes, but too many lies or misinterpreted stories are out there. There’s too much negative spin going on, and it’s not all Russ’s fault.
I’ve said this from the beginning: the LoB and any of Russ’s other teammates who spoke negatively about Russ outside of the locker room are unworthy of respect!
If the front office and via Jing staff were favoring Russ, their beef wasn’t with Russ. Their beef was with the front office and coaching staff!
Furthermore, athletes are supposed to follow code: “What happens in the locker room stays in the locker room.”
Those Seahawks who turned on Russ or spoke against him violated that code! For that, they are unworthy of respect. We know way more about Russ than we should.
Do you think every defensive player over Terrry Bradshaw, Joe Montana, Bart Starr, Tom Brady, or Aaron Rodgers?!
I can tell you with confidence that none of them were liked by everyone, and a good number probably weren’t as well-liked as you might assume.
We aren’t supposed to know about these political situations that occurs with the teams. The “LoB” stands for another type of “Legion,” Imo.
Yeah…do something else with that letter-B, because “boom” ain’t the word! ✌🏾
@@DeCurtaRican But Payton helped improve the Broncos' and Russ' performance. The team did noticeably better, even with the late season tank.
I can agree with that
@@criticaljacques2237it doesn’t fit this dumbasses narrative. He won’t get Russ’s nuts out of his mouth. he’s spit bullshit all over this comment section. 🤣
The moment he got remarried to Ciara, he started caring more about his personal image and being a celebrity.

Ever since he got Ciara man it’s been all downhill 😂
I was gonna say the same but it started a little bit b4 that. Let Russell cook (plus the 20 pounds he gained from it) showed, Nah, he wasn't that dude. 20 to 25 passes was it. Over that, it got ugly. He had to have a good running game, or you'd get average Russ. He had his moments though. Ask Green Bay.
@@markuclaHe was never hated until his teams started losing. Even the pass that was int. Wasn’t a play called by him. Love ya when your winning hate ya when ya lose. Typical.
@@TravisMcGee151I agree with you to a point, he was IMO tolerated while they were winning but he was never one of the boys as he didn't hang out with them like brothas do. He was coddled by management with privileges and didn't really back the defense up publicly like defensive oriented teams do. 85 Bears for example or Trent Dilfer & the Ravens. Defense oriented teams have a different bond than super offensive teams.
@@TravisMcGee151not true. I never liked him. Hawks fan since birth. Russ was a drama queen
That's a mf lie C has nothing to do with Russ Career . They both support each other . And this video lies. Russ is still cool with a lot of Seattle players and Lynch still stated he would pick Russ as QB .
"Russell Wilson isn't black enough." - Percy Harvin. People forget after that Dallas game in '14. Percy Harvin called out Wilson & was immediately traded to Buffalo.
Wait is that the same Percy Harvin who was a complete basket case, thought he was head coach, skipped practices, refused to play with a sore eyelid, and had 250 yards in two seasons? Yeah they should have extended that guy
Maybe Percy should have kept his mouth shut.
@@kenjohnston1257Notice it’s always the guys with multiple character issues who were all gossip kings in a clique against Russ they take the side of over all the other teammates on Seahawks and even the Broncos who vouch for Russ. Even Melvin Gordon who got cut from Broncos had nothing but positive things to say about Russ.
What a ridiculous thing to say.
Same Percy that punched Golden Tate in the eye for Russ, that’s not talked about enough. And I doubt Russell would do the same thing for him
Man this rookie qb class was crazy… Luck vs RGIII actually became the class of Russ and Kirk Cousins
Yeah, two huge "what if" stories and then a couple of journeymen QBs that have lasted the test of time and seen huge success in the NFL, even if not so much postseason for Kirk, dude's made a shitload of money and Wilson's Seahawks career speaks for itself.
So even after Pete Carroll protected Russell Wilson, he repaid Carroll by trying to get him fired.
Yea dats wild ... Russell ain't shit😂😂😂
His ego dude. He’s a fucking clown.
Football is a team sport. You’ve got to have synergy with your teammates. No matter how talented you are it will only take you so far.
Wilson is the only Quarterback under 6 feet to ever win a Super Bowl and pre-merger NFL championship in the 104-year history of the NFL.
Marshawn acting like he’s innocent in his relationship with Russ is laughable. Is it that Russ just didn’t like Lynch for no reason? Russ has too much class to tell his side of the story.
Lynch's policy for dealing with people is if you're not a stand up dude, then F you. Wilson was a smarmy disingenuous joke who reminded me of young Alex Rodriguez. He could pull it off when they were winning, but once the load was on his shoulders he crumbled.
@@JG-ne1sdWhen the load was on his shoulders he was 2nd in the NFL in TDs and wins from 2017 to 2021 with no beast mode or LOB. Y’all are miserable haters

ACTUALLY IT WAS BEV. BOBBY WAGNER EXPLAINS IT. HE WAS THERE ON THE SIDELINES
As a Chiefs fan, I was sad to see Russell Wilson leave Denver.
Idk why! Russ owns Mahomes. They have matched up 5 times, and Russ has outperformed Mahomes in 4 of those contests.
If his Broncos team had been better, he would be 5-0 against you. He should’ve won both 2022 contests against the Chiefs anyway.
The only reason he didn’t win the first 2022 matchup, singlehandedly I might add, is because former Seahawks teammate (and later Broncos teammate) Frank Clark pancaked him when he was about to score the game-winning TD.
Andy Reid has no answer for Russ, and Mahomes sh!ts yellow runny stuff when Russ is on the other sideline. 😂 That’s that yellow stain you see in his pants matching the Chiefs’ uniform.
But don’t worry…the Chiefs could wind up facing Russ twice this year with Pittsburgh, and the stakes will be much higher if they do. 😏

That SB loss was a permanent stain on Russ. There’s absolutely no escaping it! That loss fractured the entire team. 1 year later Seahawks management blew up the defense. There’s your HOF quarterback!
Honestly, the way the Seahawk fanbase has acted toward the only qb to give them a suberbowl ring is a stain on "12".
They really act like he never won a ship for them 🤦♂️
The Russ drama doesn’t make sense lol he’s a Super Bowl winning qb of course he’s gonna be treated differently by staff than the star corner or defensive players… this coming from a former DB
The Russ hatred is because of bigotry and ppl who want to push dysfunction in black community. Russ is a threat to status quo because if more black men were like Russ you wouldn’t have so many broken homes
Good point. No onw says anything about the way other QB's get special treatment!
Broncos fans tried saying they robbed us lmao they got what they deserved😭
Man he the winningest Qb in his first 9 years you don’t do that if you not good… Tom Brady said it himself when you a vet QB the coordinator has to adapt to your play calling which y’all organization didn’t do

The seachickens fans might be the least likable “fans” in the NFL. Now that Pete’s cock is out of their mouth, they can at the humble pie they deserve. Enjoy riding GeNo into your graves 😂😂😂
I cannot stand the Broncos and am a die hard Raiders fan and even I feel kind of bad for them. Nobody deserves that shit. As any fan would be they were happy that they might finally have all the pieces to the puzzle and were gloating over it, normal behavior, we all do that shit. What they got in the deal wasn't what they thought and it went bad fast. Sucks to be them but they definitely didn't deserve the sack of shit they paid 245 mil and a good portion of their immediate future for.
@@ErlingEra Meanwhile Seahawks are back to irrelevant franchise with no realistic chance of playoff success or even perennial playoff appearances for years to come just like they were before Russ.
There's a reason that Carroll had a run heavy offence. Mr. Unlimited is a great QB on play action bootlegs, and is really good at rolling out and making something happen when the play breaks down. As it turns out, that's his entire skill set. He went to Denver and convinced a terrible first-time head coach that he could be a pocket passer. He also seemed to spend a lot of his energy promoting his brand. Then, last year, a great head coach figured out that Russ couldn't run his offense. On to Pittsburgh. Glad he's out of Denver. Feel bad for Steelers fans.
He wore A-Rod’s number. He hired A-Rod’s PR firm.
Fraud game recognize frauds 😄
He didn't do JLo though.
Russ being traded was a bitter sweet moment , but what we got in return for him was amazing!
Hey the NFL needs a Lemon Law. Us Broncos fans got hood winked and burned. 248M. All we got was High Knees.

@@RayJovjov Heh, yeah, OK. So where did you go to school, bruh? What is your degree in?
He felt it was important enough to highlight that "he went to a private school, while mom & dad had amazing jobs" (7:38), as if it's something we hold against him. We seen the same type of shit even amongst pro athletes in the recent past (rumblings between lebron and Steph Curry during the mid-2010's, because Steph came from 2 good parents, not from the hood, not from the struggle ... or even further back, Grant Hill coming from 2 highly educated parents, son of a former pro NFL player, and the flack he got from U of Michigan players of the 90s).
But, okay bruh, I will fall back, Mr. Educated Rhodes Scholar.
GREAT VIDEO...Russ was so fun to watch, he was a "Big game hunter" as a QB (Nate Tice) and i had so many fun Sundays and Monday Nights etc watching him. He is a 1rst ballot HOFer. But now in 2024 hes not cooking anymore hes cooked so he needs to retire and take a job on TV. GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU !!!!!!
appreciate it the love. so you think, he should hang it up after this season?
He’d be lucky to be in the HOF, he definitely won’t be first ballad though.
Hes no where close to a first ballot hall of famer I wouldn't even say he's a hall of famer
Wilson is in no way "a 1rst ballto HOFer." He would be extremely lucky to even get in the HOF. He was generally the 6th to 8th best qb in the league in his prime.
@@jasonmay6368 Cool but look up the stats of first ballot QB HOFers and then tell me Russ isnt. Hes one of the top 20 QBs of all time. LOVE YOUR NAME LOL

Yes, Pete called an inside pass play from the 1 yard line while we had the most dominant running back in the league.
Genius!
@@shortyeee21 he thought so! He was on Sherman podcast explaining why he thought it was a genius play
Why do people forget that sherm is a psycho?
He was until he blocked a Trent Williams left hook with his head
@@aprx1814 Or that Lynch is a loose cannon himself with off the field issues, same with Percy Harvin and the rest of the clique that hated Russ. It’s all same reason why ppl ignore all of Russ teammates on Seahawks and Broncos who vouch for him. Russ is poster child for how much bias there is against a black QB esp one who doesn’t fit any stereotypes and one who has deep religious convictions with no rap sheet off the field. He’s basically a threat to the system. Because the entire system of white supremacy would be cooked if more black men conducted themselves like Russ and not like the toxic images they promote instead
What makes you think that's not, specifically, why we love him?
As a hawk fan, the reason for the booing at 19:20 was about a week or 2 before he was traded Russ made a statement saying he wanted to stay in seattle and retire here.
Then a week later it came out he was going to denver. Felt like a slap in the face to the 12's. If he had said he wanted to leave and then was traded I honestly believe he wouldnt have been booed.
I also will die on the hill that Ciara ruined this man. It was all downhill and celebrity/cringe russ after that.
It’s sounds to me like he soft it’s a gentlemanly sport with a TON of constructive/destructive criticism that’s why coaches look for QBS with patience or fiery energy.
Because he is soft
Pete Carrol cost us our second superbowl win, he could have run it and won, but he wanted Wilson to be the MVP....
I think Russ changed the call.
They still had another down to work with. Wilson could've thrown it away but he wanted to be the hero. That's on him. Carrol knew the Patriots were looking for the run. Wilson forced a pass. It's on him, not Carrol.
It's like I keep telling Seahawks fans that have maybe watched up to 5 seasons of football at the most..... there's no guarantee that Lynch would have busted through and made the TD. You could have had Emmit, Barry, LT, or Dorsett in there and they may not have gotten through either. I've never, ever, seen you guys make mention of other plays either such as a QB Sneak.
Or you know maybe Butler just made a hell of a play.
I still believe you got to run the ball there but don't take anything away from Butler that was a hell of a clutch interception
@@m8x425in that point of his carrer beastmode was one of the best if not the best goal line rb in the league. Just the play before he picked up 4 yards and only needed one more to get the td. Why will they do a qb sneak with a undersized qb when they have marshawn? Stop defending the indefensible. If it was a fourth down yeah I get the call, but it was second down. Even people who didn’t know how football works knew how dumb that playcall was, its logical.
He fell in love with himself and never stopped loving himself

This was actually a really good breakdown on Russ! My animosity towards him makes total sense now 😂
My man Russ got that bell-pepper nose.
He was one of my favorite QBs in the league way back, then he started gettin weird. At least thats when i noticed. He'll be a HoF'r.
No way. Russ is not getting into the HOF (unless the sun somehow rises in the west and he wins another SB).
Yall gotta understand that he dates futures ex , he does not wanna be in the locker room when that’s all everyone listens too 😭
dating?? Dude just celebrated his 7th wedding anniversary....
They’re married with 3 kids together
Were trying to forget that also. Thanks
Throwing the ball instead of running never made sense to me, especially as a pats fan who watched Lynch get 5 or 6 yards every time he got the ball, it makes so much more sense that they were favoring Russ and wanted to feed him an MVP title
I will never forget laughing myself into the hiccups and tears over not handing the ball to Marshawn.
Well I’m still crushed, always will be.
But that’s because I know the Greek tragedy-history of Seattle’s sports 🤦🏻♀️
Yeah….. it’s been a long road of suck and heartbreak
If anyone could get 1 damn yard, it was ML.
Because him getting in the end zone is absolutely guaranteed right no one ever stops the Run
I can't believe that you still think the NFL is real?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's what they get, for disrespecting Marshawn Lynch aka Beast Mode!

Regarding Russ not being “hood”.
That’s not the issue with teammates relating to Russ.
From the countless stories, interviews, podcasts from teammates and former teammates… the overwhelming takeaway I get is he’s disingenuous.
“Hood” dudes have remarkable way of accepting/ interacting with non hood dudes… if that person is genuine and honest about who they are.
One thing that “Hood” dudes despise is that of someone who is “two faced” ~ disingenuous.
I would imagine, also through vicarious experiences that an offensive lineman with midwestern roots, and values “think and carry themselves accountable in that same manner “
At the end of the day, despite various cultural differences, race, social upbringing, grown men respect self accountability.
He could be a cornball, non hood, black man, and be accepted… and not be “fake”.
Russell Wilson for all the options offered has a fake personality. Rubs many the wrong way.
Russell Wilson was a good-great game manager and playmaker early in his career, with a great deep ball.
If not for that legendary defense, that ushered NFL defenses into the modern era on ways to defend the pass.
He put up good numbers just last season.
For the majority of his career he’s been above average…
Unfortunately as he’s aged his play making abilities have fallen off, and while he still can throw it, has glaring flares handicap him.
His reluctance, nearly non existent ability to throw over the middle,
His tendency to lock onto a receiver, can prove to be problematic
As a lifrlong Bronco fan, I never wanted Wilson in Denver. The only thing that saved the 22-23 season was the Nuggets winning the championship.
Hated playing Russ in College, I knew he was going to be the starter in Seattle when they drafted him.
Little unknown fact Russ Grand Father was the president at Norfolk State University in Norfolk Va for some time.
Yes, I knew that. Russ comes from a classy family. That's why I don't understand why people want him act like he grew up in the ghetto!
Once his sports career is over my man is going to run for office, just watch. He has that slimy politician energy.
Yeah, those Stanford and UC-Berkeley streets must have been tough for Richard Sherman and Marshawn Lynch. 😏
Marshawn is from Oakland and Sherm is from Compton. I’m no expert but….
Both men raised themselves up out of inner city povery to excellent universities through their athletic talents and exceptional intellect. What's so hard to understand?
Could not be happier to have the MASSIVE dead cap hit on the broncos to not have russ play QB. Sean Payton did what he could to get him back on track but obviously feels the same.

It's simple Russell doesn't act "black" and most black players hate guys like that. They consider it being fake.

Please have a sit colonizer
As harsh as it sounds, I agree with you. We see this played out all over the world. I wasn't considered " black enough" by some in my own profession. Russell is the man!
That’s how ghetto/ignorant people think…”they not like us” crab mentality. But that’s to be expected, given their history.

He thinks hes the reason the seahawks were so good. Hes the reason they dont have a dynasty. His stint in Denver proved he isnt an all star. It proved his team in seattle carried him, and not the other way around.
Their beef was with Pete Carroll, not Russ! That’s why they all look weak to me!
That pass play in the Superbowl was proof that the organization was giving Russell special treatment.
Or maybe it's because defense knew they would run the ball so Pete called the opposite play to happen. Unfortunately it ended with a pick and there wasn't another chance.
“Season tickets sales skyrocketed” 😂
Also, Denver had been sold out since 1970.
Russ helped the secondary market… for the first couple games.
It's always two sides of the story... why is Russ blamed for being favored by his coach? Blamed for the play called in the second Super Bowl? Blamed for marrying a celebrity. Favor is not fair and usually has nothing to do with us. I appreciate Russ visiting regularly the Children's hospital in Seattle. It's easy to hate when people don't understand your life...
You understand so little about the situation. You for sure don't watch football 😂😂😂😂
Russel Wilson is a really nice person everyone around him is awesome and I wish him and his family the best
I'm a Seattle native and appreciated Russ for his contribution to the Seahawks. I admit I never liked him personally but admire what he was able to accomplish despite his shortcomings. I understood his departure from Seattle and wished him best, no worries about Denver much until reach the Superbowl. I wished him well and followed the Broncos the past 2 years, it didn't go well. Funny< I root for him now than I ever had to for the 'Hawks.

@@truthbearer7891 Sure thing.
Russ was amazing. I bought his jersey. I loved watching him play and speaking after the games. Over time he was much more concerned about this brand and that's when it went downhill. He was just as much a problem in Denver as the coaching. His last couple of years in Seattle were not all that impressive. I'm surprised Denver gave us what they did after watching his decline before the trade.
I did some work at Children’s hospital in Seattle. Wilson went every week and visited kids. He had a special spot he parked at the loading dock. One of the times he showed up the camera man didn’t show and Wilson left without going in 🤦♂️
