Didn't they already come out and say Russ was the started a long time ago. Like didn't this question already get answered...? Yes Tomlin and the team already fucking announced hes the starter like two months ago! Stupid media just desperate for a story!
They said he's in "pole position" -- which just means he gets the first opportunity behind center. The job is now his to lose. September's a long ways away.
No, Roger Goodell and the NFL Executive Office is trying to push Russ out of the league before he can hinder Mahomes and the other younger QBs and break more passing records held by wyt3QBs. I am Convinced if this. Media wouldn’t be on code like this unless the NFL was using its influence over media and fans. They’re acting like apolitical organization. This campaign against Russ reeks of Roger Goodell!
Fields is a running qb who has never thrown more than 20 tds in a season. Won't work in the playoffs ask ( Vick and Lamar Jackson). The media scared of what Wilson will do in Pittsburgh
@michaelbooth4998 correction terrified !!! We all know running qbs are exciting but don't win big. The media trying to trick everyone like they care about Fields but it's really hate on Wilson.
@@michaelbooth4998: Yes! SCARED! Roger Goodell treats the QBs like a matching set. Russ is the only QB who consistently outperforms Mahomes h2h. Russ has a habit of beating QBs younger than he is and holding winning re Russ over them. The only exception do far is Lamar Jackson. Notice how Russ is being treated differently from the other age 35+ QBs, and if there’s a QB who deserves high confidence it’s Russ! I’m 100% convinced that the NFL Executive offices are trying to force Russ out of the league, and they’re doing it to keep him from winning multiple SBs and entering top-5 all-time discussions. They don’t want Russ ranked ahead of Rodgers, and if Rodgers doesn’t win another SB and Russ dies, Russ deserves to be higher on the all-time list. They’re both ridiculously efficient. Notice how they strategically tried to keep Russ out of the 2018 pro bowl just to let Andrew Luck catch up to Russ, even though Russ had had one of his better seasons that year. They did that because Russ was outperforming Luck. The NFL is rigged, and Roger Goodell has it out for Russ. He wants him out of the league and is exerting influence over media bosses who then force their analysts to propagate false narratives. And the public has been buying the bullsh!t. All of a sudden, Russ can’t so this and can’t do that. It’s all lies!
@@ReaLHoodstaTV Obviously you have never seen him play. Start from the day he started with Seattle and watch his film up to now. Then watch Fields tape and compare. Kenny Pickett was better than Fields.
As a Pittsburgh Steeler fan I'm ecstatic , can't wait for the season to start .. as for sports broadcasts , I rarely watch any of them anymore cuz they always have women on them and as soon as the woman starts talking I have to change the channel or whatever you would call it online .. don't care if you grew up watching football with your dad , you don't know nothing , shut up .. and with everything I believe with all my heart that you always hire the best people for the job and I guarantee you there's a better man for any woman they have on sports shows .. 🙏✌️🍻 .. and God keep Harrison Butkar and his family safe from the lunitic left and everybody in sports and sports media to cowardly to make a stand
As long as “future” is defined as beginning in 2027 or 2028, you are in good shape. The problem is that Russ will play his a$$ off this year, and Fields will have to be shipped out, probably to the Rams, Cowboys, or Raiders. He won’t want to wait, and the Steelers won’t be dumb enough to let Russ walk after he decimates the AFC, which he will do this year. Count on it!
Greeny talks like he’s being paid by Goodell to propagate false narratives. Russ and Fields are not in similar positions. One misconception about Russ and Denver. Russ forced Denver to cut him, the same way he ostensibly forced Seattle to trade him by telling them he would walk when he became a free agent again. Those teams never said they were better off without Russ, Sean Payton’s dislike of Russ’s persona notwithstanding. We all know Pete Carroll would still have a job in Seattle if Russ had stayed. Both teams would’ve kept Russ if he had wanted to stay. Was he Payton’s type of QB? No! But there wasn’t a better option for the Broncos. Seattle has a public record showing that they didn’t want to trade Russ…AT ALL!!! Russ embarrassed the franchise by demanding a trade right after they had gone public with declarations of being all-in. They were the guy who proposed on camera, got rejected, and is now disparaging the woman he proposed to, e.g., “She was lousy in bed anyway…she couldn’t cook,” etc. Denver wanted to keep Russ for another season, but they didn’t want to be on the hook for $100M if he got injured! That’s why they requested that he defer his injury guarantee. Russ, understanding that refusing their request would be his ticket out, wisely refused! So no, the Broncos do not think they’re better off without Russ this year, and the Seahawks KNEW they were worse off without Russ. Both teams just played the hands that Russ dealt them. Sean Payton tried to tank on 2023, and there’s a part of him that had to be amazed that Russ was able to withstand his attempted sabotage and put up respectable stats and win the toughest games on their season, understanding that the defense also hit its act together. It is a team sport, right? But let’s revise this narrative that Denver thought it was on their best interest to let Russ go, because they did everything they could to hang onto him. Sean Payton treated him like garbage and then began openly disrespecting him more intensely once it became clear that Russ was forcing their hand into cutting him. Russ knew Payton had purposely suppressed his numbers in efforts to tank, and knew Payton was lying when he tried to cover up those tanking efforts by propagating a lie that Russ couldn’t digest his playbook! Anyone who believes that nonsense is an absolute fool! Russ is one of the smartest, hardest-working, most resilient QBs to ever play the game. Payton is asking fans and media to believe that Teddy Bridgewater, Taysom Hill, and Jameis Winston, who might have a combined IQ of about 69, could digest an offense that Russ, a two-time SB participant and breaker of multiple elite records, couldn’t understand. It’s ridiculous, especially when Russ ran Brian Schottenheimer’s offense so masterfully 2018-2020, Russ’s best years. Do people think Schotty’s playbook was rudimentary? Remember, he was Andrew Luck’s former O.C. before Pete Carroll hired him to coach in Seattle. And, at the risk of pointing out the obvious, Russ shouldn’t have had to adjust to Sean Payton. Russ had been a winner and an elite QB his entire career. Payton should’ve been adjusting to Russ, and his efforts to publicly disparage Russ’s ability to digest his playbook is also a mask for his own coaching inadequacies. If a coach cannot adjust to his best players’ skill sets, as did Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Mike Krzyzewski, Andy Reid, Don Shula, Steve Kerr, Greg Poppavich, and other all-time greats, he’s not a great coach! *SEAN PAYTON IS NOT A GREAT COACH! HE’S A ONE-TIME LUCKY CHEATER WHO MANAGED TO INHERIT A QB WHO HAPPENED TO BE A PERFECT FIT FOR HIS SO-CALLED “SYSTEM.”* Russ is still Russ. He still has the goods, yet he is being treated differently than 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers, who is coming off a season-ending injury, 36-year-old Kirk Cousins (also coming off a season-ending injury), and Matthew Stafford, who is about 38 or 39 and suffered a season-ending injury of his own in 2022, which was a big reason the Seahawks even made the playoffs in 2022 after Russ departed.
I was a QB. This is a QB battle. Russ needs that new contract so he has to play well. Fields is young and has a lot To prove. Both players aren’t safe and they know they have to ball out THIS YEAR NOT NEXT! But it’s clear the #1 is Russ
Typical Media crap💩. If the Steelers really want to win playoff games Russell Wilson is there ONLY option. He’s won MANY playoff games and is a proven leader and winner in big moments. No disrespect to Fields but he hasn’t won anything and he’s not who you want starting in January when everything is intensified and magnified.,
@@sbedify6863 you might be right. But football is a game of timing, spacing and anticipation. Fir all these things to work the players must be in sync with each other.
RG3 ain't an expert, his team got it wrong. Cousins should have stayed in the driver seat and marched on. They rushed RG3 back and it ended their run and his career. Russell has what most QB's don't have..... SUPERBOWL experience and a win
You had me until you said “Justin.” 😂 He’ll be lucky to get on the field as a QB at all, other than some garbage minutes or special packages they dual up. Russ will be the QB and remain the QB, and he should be. He’s superior to Fields.
Boolsheet! Russ isn’t even close to being washed. In fact, he proved he’s still elite with what he did under Payton with Payton purposely sabotaging him. Payton suppressed Russ’s numbers and tried to tank.
Justin Fields is better than Trevor Lawrence give the young man an actual NFL team to play on and why wouldn't you let him play QB I don't care if he is faster than Usain bolt let him play quarterback like every other quarterback and let him run when the play breaks down RPO sounds like the formation you use when you want to kill an athletic quarterback
Cuz the medias painting Sean as the A-Hole that demands to much and didn't want Russ to be there. So he made him fail. If Russ is the starter not much will change stat wise, he's still gunna be the most sacked, won't throw over the middle and it " won't be his fault"
I respect her take, however She's not the say all, and in a competitive sport like the NFL having two dynamic quarterbacks, why not find ways to utilize two dual threats
If Russ retired today he would NOT be a HOFer. He needs another 3-4 years as a starter to solidify his HOF credentials statistically and the media is hellbent on trying to speak into existence him being ousted from the league as a starter so that doesn’t happen. That’s the only reason they are showing all this fake love to Justin Fields 😂
I agree with the fake love for Fields , but if Kurt Warner and Troy Aikman are Hall of Famers then Wilson is easily a Hall of Famer . Both Warner and Aikman had like 5 plus bad years or more . Wilson last 2 yrs is better than most of Aikman best years.
You’re wrong! Riss was the best pickup they could’ve had! He’s still a baller. Don’t believe what you saw in Denver. As a matter of fact, DO believe what you saw in Denver, because it takes Avery special take talent for Russ to do what he did this past season with his own coach trying to sabotage him and tank the season away.
@@DeCurtaRican every Wilson Fan...Newton Fan...always talks about what he WAS and what he HAD accomplished. That was then..this is now. He's not what he used to be. Can you at least just acknowledge that? This is the NFL - stars do fall out of the sky. And he is definitely one of those stars
I'm gunna laugh when it's Fields vs Stidham and I'm a Broncos fan that wants Nix vs Russ. RG3, man I like you but when you say things like Russ is a HOFer ..... Man I had to rewind because I had missed what was said after do to laughter 😂😂😂.
