Fire Shady McCoy. Great player horrible sports analyst lmfao
Russell had ONE bad season & played good his last season & the nfl ready to get rid of him .. wentz had THREE bad seasons all back to back & the nfl keeps him 👀 white folks say that's not racism. I'm not black & I see it & people on tv can't say it because they need a job 🤷🏻♂️
@@UnKnown-nq5hj what are you going on about? Russ is going to have a job in the league. Sean Payton hates Russell Wilson that's the real problem.
@@HoPeFuLCheWBaCCa see, like I said ☝🏼
Everyone hating on Russ makes me root for him ngl
nah deadass
Think about it a broken down Russell Wilson vs burrow and Lamst not to mention the Browns are coming too
Ya most def
What’s hating because I’m not sure yall know. Seem like it’s more so if you don’t agree then it’s hating
I’m with you . He’s done nothing for me to hate on him.
Acho was the same one that called the Cowboys defense generational after blowing out two bad NY teams.
they did lose a cb who had 11 in a season on the Tuesday before the week 4 game when they played the 49ers. You are not going to be good when you have 2 of your top 3 lb's and an all pro cb on IR by week 5.
You forgot to mention that injuries are a part of the game and also the person that replaced your all pro corner set an NFL record for pick sixes and also was an all pro. Your making excuses bruh
@@startedfromscratch1529 that part is true but we also had no linebackers because of injury. The 2000 Ravens were healthy, the 2007 and 2012 Giants were healthy, the 2013 legion of boom was healthy and only on those specific years were they considered a generational defense
@@whitewolfsthoughts700 All great points, but you also have to take into consideration that the scheme your defense was running was dependent on speed, so you guys had capable linebackers they were just small and teams figured that out. Put bigger guys on smaller guys
@@startedfromscratch1529 we were using multiple safetys in the lb position this year. They were not capable as they couldn't stop the run or shed blocks.
I like James Jones’ no bs no sugarcoat takes.
Acho gotta understand that Russ came from a culture where every player was Dawgs during the 10 years in seattle. He was competing against the LOB. He literally had marshawn, Angry Doug, Hot temper Dk metcalf in the locker room. Like Russ can handle Pittsburgh. Like Russ is a Dawg himself and he was competing with other Dawgs for years in practice
There’s no reports that DK was a hothead inside that locker room. Lmao he showed up to training camp in a contract year while Deebo ghosted the 49ers and let his agent bad mouth them while negotiating his new extension. DK by every account is a team player.
@@LevelSkipFirst off being a hot head and being a dawg is two different things and secondly does that one play negate the fact Russ literally played QB for the seattle Seahawks during the LOB days? There's no where he can go he can't handle he's not as good as he used go be but they saw him winning last year and was like nah we gotta sit you down
The whole time he was saying that, I was thinking about the guys Russ played with in Seattle. Those were some crazy, rowdy personalities and highly competitive. And I don't think Russ would've wanted it any other way as a competitor himself.
@@evileyevalausbro he’s slim down,and he can still throw the football. The thing is that everybody is blind of is that the broncos roster is really overrated. And I’m saying that Russ can handle Pittsburgh compare to the years during seattle.
All y’all saying “he played in Seattle” ya, he played his way OUT of Seattle. That locker room hated him. And he ruined their chances at a dynasty with the worst play in Super Bowl history
Russ clearly showed this past season that he still has alot left in the tank... Payton just dont want him... I think he would do well with Steelers.. good oLine, run-game, awesome defense.. underrated WRs
Yea I just think they need a good play caller
Russell Wilson ain't no pittsburgh steeler
@@JimPlunkett-df6tn SO Mason Rudolph is?? 😂😂
@nkett-df6tn the fact that Tomlin has been able to get Steelers to playoffs nearly every season without a real QB (since Big Ben), shows all they need is a serviceable QB, enter Russ
@@JimPlunkett-df6tn I bet you would take carson wentz 😂
Stop right there. He walked into Denver with a great defense and two wide receivers..? What? He walked into Hackett, a pretty good defense (who later gave up 70 to Miami) and one decent developing receiver, though both ran iffy routes and dropped a lot of balls... He's not bad. As the other three hosts noted. Payton doesn't like him. That's on Payton.
The defense that he walked into was top 10. Then Evero decided to leave when Payton wanted him back and he brought in VJ. If people actually watched film, then they’d see that Russ missed wide open guys because he’d always look for Sutton
@@usopenitentiary denver was garbage when he got there & sean knew it once he got there also & was looking for someone to point the finger to, denver & sean overrated. Russ played good last season, period.
@@UnKnown-nq5hj so you definitely didn’t watch any of the games to have this sort of mindset. Got it. Denver was supposedly a QB away and a dark horse playoff team when Russ got there and he proceeded to have the worst season of his career with a top 10 defense already in place. Then Sean gets here and they have their best season since 2016. Russ had 8 games where he threw for less than 200 yards and 1 game where he threw for less than 100.
He lost to the chargers to miss playoffs. He stinks
Exactly. Ijiro Eviro did a masterful job with that defense. They were great, but they had nothing on offense.
Russ to Steelers is a good fit. At least playoff contention
Russell prayed well last year a plus 4 to 1 td to int rate, almost a 100 passer rating is good. Why are we pretending he played badly.
Da whole situation with The Broncos and The Coach is so weird
White coach hates black quarterbacks? Nothing new about that but I get your point
@@ericmcgowan1993 Dude you're being Ridiculous. So Andy Reid hated McNabb, Vick, or Mahomes? What about Pete Carroll and Russ? Or Sean Dessau with Hurts?
That limited mindset is exactly that. Limited
Russ (Ryan Tannehill or Justin Fields) should go to the Steelers. The Steelers need a Qb ace up.
@maskedman5657 yeah I know racism is imaginary 🙄
You're no jedi. Don't repeat conservative radio show bs to me
Jeff fisher hated McNair and Vince Young. Even though both saved him from being fired. Mike Shanahan hated Jason Campbell, Donovan McNabb and destroyed RG3's career. Cam Cameron hated Culpepper. And Payton hates Wilson. Nothing new. Same old folks
just so you’re tracking, you’re life is terrible because you’re pathetic not because of your skin tone. As long as you hold that mindset you’re always going to be a little man screaming like a child.
Russ ain't bad the broncos are
I am a Broncos fan and I have seen Russ be the bright spot of the team in the second year bc we went from an elite defense Russ 1st year in Denver to really bad and it was Russ that held it together
He is wash stop it
Russ is DEFINITELY the best answer for us currently
Raiders fan here!!! I want Russ!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Chiefs fan here. We want you to have him, too.
@@jp5436 ayyyyy. Thank you for the support. can’t wait to whoop yall again.
🤣🤣🤣 🤟🏽🤟🏽🤟🏽
Imagine if the Raiders trade up for Jayden Daniels AND sign Russ. JD can sit back and learn while the Broncos pay Russ to play for the Raiders 😅
nope
As a Steelers fan, we need a QB Russ could fit
You crazy, and not a true Steelers fan. Steelers don't need Russell Wilson and don't want him. The media is pushing this story. The owner already said no to any QB move, they're staying with Kenny Pickett
So kp is the answer or you feel kp right now is better than R.Wilson?@@perryellis1423
Rw is better than KP, def take him over KP right now.
Could help develop him, his not ready game is to fast for kp
@@brianferguson9483 that's what Mitch job was, but he's a bad example and OC Canada was a poor choice, this is why Arthur Smith is here to finish the product of Kenny, just like he did for Tannehill
Russell Wilson will be a star in NFL
My girl Joy look flawless
I think if Russ gets cut. I can see him landing on the raiders and teaming up with that offense. Plus getting to play Denver twice doesn’t hurt. You put him on that team and then they invest on some defense pieces in the offseason.. I think that could be a surprising combination
Russ said he wanted to win a Super Bowl ! Raiders ain’t sniffing a Super Bowl anytime soon😂😂😂😂they’re not a QB away from contending
@@NuancedNarratives throwing to Adams wouldn’t be a bad thing and the Raiders D is on the up
@@Sargsialthough i hate the raiders. you’re right with this comment. russ & adams would go hard i think
@@Sargsi
And Jacoby Meyers is a great number 2
I would say come to Atlanta but we all know Future would run him outta town.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
How so
Nah future gon try to get Ciara in his bed first
All Russ need is a pint of lean for Atlanta to embrace him
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Polamalu was Cool and Calm and was a beast on the field
He might actually be nicer than Russ...😂💪
Go Russ. God bless!!!
Troy Polamalu wasn't a big angry guy. Russ stats last year would have worked well in Pittsburgh. The QB situation there is awful
Agreed. Hearing him all calm and soft spoken in interviews you’d never know he was such a hard hitter on the field.
Hines Ward was the nicest dude tho lol Smiling every play 😅
Young, hip, sporting new style! Great perspective and delivery. Love the show!
Listen at the beautiful Joy❤.
It is crazy that people don’t like Russ because he is a nice guy!!
You haven’t heard the stories about him in Denver when he got there. He has met the celebrity go to his head
@@beanstocks5782don’t believe that media narrative. The truth is, Russ is a kind hearted person and a fearless and elite competitor. He still has what it takes to win another Super Bowl
Shady McCoy is funny man.
Hines ward was a nice guy..always smiling, never any drama with him. And he was just fine with the Steelers.
For the record Kenny Pickett didn't play in the post season game vs the bills, that was Mason Rudolph*
All I know is hawks was below .500 last two seasons and Russ still in Denver and Carrol ain’t even in the league
3:51 i wish Joy a b a new blessing fa me fasho!
Go to Atlanta. Probably easiest division to a path to playoffs. If he gets there, he'll get another decent deal.
Shady & Jones are hilarious 😂😂😂
I love Joy!! she talks real deal
Didn’t Brady go like 10 years without a Super Bowl? Why people acting like it’s absolutely impossible when it’s not?
Because Russ ain't Brady. Brady was still performing at a top tier level for those 10 years. Plus Russ is short and has to rely on athleticism, Brady didn't.
It’s not impossible though Russ doesn’t have to be Brady
Cause pm15 playing 😂😂😂😂
@@TheCapn23 nope, I remember all kinds of conversations about Brady being washed during that period, he had a generational defense that bailed him out several times and everyone knew it. I bet no one expected him to win like 3 more Super Bowls during that period.
@@EL_LeonFredo9he’d have to be on a loaded team like the 9ers to win a superbowl, not happening
It’s crazy people hate Russ for being a good guy.
A lot of people are just jealous or have nothing better to do than to hate on someone great like Russ.
Acho - a guy that gives up his body the way Russ has taking hits, scrambling that’s an edge. You respect that as a teammate. We need to be careful about what people portray as tough because that’s not necessarily the case.
Russ left Karen / has a Beautiful Lady / family made a ton of bread and has had a great career - he is a competitor and I’m sure he wants to play well longer but this is the entertainment business. He’s done fine keep working Russ.
Almost 2 weeks without content that was rough!!
Joy on russ "I think he knows the game very well"
Russ would probably be the one to beat Patty
Not only beat him but give him and KC’s organization a biiiiig issue
Btw Joy 🌹🌹🌹here’s your flowers
Love her ❤
Let Russ Microwave!! Cooking was a bit much for him 😂
Yeah, and we all know that’s bullsh!t. Russ has never gotten to cook…never been allowed to cook, not in Seattle and certainly not in Denver.
Crazy how joy has better takes than Acho she’s not biased or assuming
I hope he comes to Minnesota.
Broncos also expected to get Aaron Rodgers vs Russell Wilson. Idk if that makes a difference. What's done is done.ha
I hope they bring some real heat to talk about it's been too long
I'm so happy y'all are back from vacation, I hope all is well with y'all and your families also HOOK EM🤘🏿 AND HAPPY BLACK HISTORY ✊🏿
Did you say a place led by Defense? AP; Patrick Graham; Robert Spillane; Mad Maxx...Raiders! 2 Great WRs? Adams; Meyers...Raiders!!
Running the football and play action passing is the Steelers formula. Russ sould thrive in that situation because it wouldn't be on him to do it all.
He would be a beast in commanders all black uniform
Uniforms dnt play football 😂😂😂
Besides Greg Jennings which teammates has bagged on Aaron? When so many say how great he is. Adams, Jones, Aaron Jones, Nixon, David Bak, Lazard, Lewis, Jordy, Cobb, Lacy, Peppers, Woodson, Driver, Crabtree, Cook, College, Sitton, And many more has praised his leadership and as a teammate.
Joy is so smart she is a genius she always speaks the truth and she is a beautiful goddess ❤
Idk hear me out Russ to the RAIDERS!!!!!!!
Or ATL
I would ❤Russ in Oak-L.A-Oak-L.V so he can stick it ta Denver a b da Bomb 💣. N Ciara n Vegas getting scrilla too a b str8 n let AOC learn we a b right
@@user-it4yn9vz6c wtf did you just say...
Just to lose to CHIEFS kingdom 👑 AGAIN 😂😂😂😂
@@tylerprince3496exactly 😂
"He's a nice guy"
Bruh 💀
Arron Rodgers on the Broncos equals the same record as Russ
A ton of players praise AROD as a teammate can’t believe JJ let that slide smh
I think that would be a good match.
Still bring jealous wonderful family etc.
I want Baler in Pittsburgh. That’d be beautiful
Russ still got gas in the tank
Russ Wilson should take veterans minimum sign with Chiefs get a Superbowl ring🤷🏼♂️
Was thinking the same. The only stopping the 3peat is injury.
How do yall think Russ would do with the niners? Hypothetical
If Buzzcut Russ goes to the Steelers, put it on the board they are getting 1 SB in the next 3 years. Period.
Russ still got it how we gonna act like we forgot he had his own play book and the coach got rid of it not to mention disrespecting him on the side line that coach had it out for him
After NBA on TNT, this is my next favorite bunch. And joy for Joy!
Somtimes the demons you know are better then the ones you don’t 🔥🔥
Man I really thought they were gonna cook this year that def was so bad
Russell make that money while you can. Because you at the end.
These guys are underestimating the falcons roster. Look at our weapons compared to Pittsburgh and our defense
Steelers Defense with half injured finished 5th in Scoring. And they are loaded on offense in all skill positions. A Hall of Fame coach and will add to it in Free agency and the draft. It's not close
And good for Kenny
Shady and Joy sound like huge Russ fans. Maybe they should swap their favorite teams QBs with him
Joy is a Pittsburgh fan, we would gladly swap Kenny Pickett for Russ, PLEASE
@@austinhall7377she is for sure but she projects like a low key dolphins fan
@@austinhall7377he will be just an older version of Kenny averaging 200 yards per game
@@deciuswtasbybecause her brother played for the dolphins, But they are both pretty clear that joy and shady like Pittsburgh because they are from there, and then he played for Philly so he rocks with them, and joy’s brother played in miami
@@DJ_DIOR it’s not about how many yards per game you average, Big Ben was never a top statistical qb, when they were winning supers bowls Ben was giving you 200 yards and clutch plays, do you know how many 17-14, 14-10 games Ben won, off keeping the game close and Troy or James Harrison made a big play and then he had a clutch drive.
That’s all they are asking, let Minkah and TJ make a play, and just keep it close
Sean Payton will be fired after next season. Not comparing Russ to Brady but we saw this movie already in New England.
85 Bears??
When have we seen burrow get that edge
Not surprised it’s acho tho
Acho is all over the place here.
Shady switches up so much, bro was calling him out all last year season lol
Just came by to say joy once again is fine fine
The sad part is, the bootleg channels have better quality, only bad cuts.
Problem is he's not playing anywhere near his cap hit....
Boy said he aint learn to use a stove til college 😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
2:26 😂
The league has bullied Russ. It’s disgusting how Sean Payton spoke on Russ
To be fair Captain Cringe would absolutely would be an upgrade over Pickett and Rudolph.
Cringe how ?
😆
@@benadek6703bronco country, LETS RIDE!
Lmao that’s how
Idk why so many people hate Russ or think he’s washed. I think the smart thing for Denver would be to keep him and try to restructure his contract to help add some to the cap space. If Russ really wants to stay like he says he does he'd at least consider restructuring. I’m not saying cut all the money he’s due but I’m sure he knows his play hasn’t justified the amount he signed for. But people also need to realize that he’s played for 2 coaching staffs and 2 different schemes in his 2 years in Denver. His stats last year at very least justify a chance to continue starting. If I were Denver I’d keep him and draft a rookie. None of the rookie qbs are ready to start outside of Williams, Drake, and Daniels. So what’s the alternative? They draft and and start a rookie QB, they play terribly and then the fan base hates the new rookie QB, on top of Denver still owing Russell Wilson his contract for the year? Or do they keep Russ for another year and see what they got left in him, and give whatever rookie quarterback they draft a chance to learn the scheme and game speed from a year of sitting behind a vet? When the Chiefs drafted Patrick Mahomes, he sat for a year behind Alex Smith. Tons of QBs have sat for a year or more. Whoever they draft will need time to developer and they already have Russ under contract. Use this time to invest in the team as a whole and that way the money Russ is due isn’t a complete waste and they’re still able to groom a young QB for the future.
He sucks
He’s not gonna win in the next 5 years
They literally tried to and he said NO, what are u talking about? Then everybody was crying because they wanted him to take less money
And that’s not true, Penix was in a pro style offense and asked to make like 15-20 nfl throws a game, he can definitely start now, his draft stock is low because of injury history. Also a lot of people believe Bo Nix can start now, and that might be who Denver drafts
@@johnnycash8567 I don’t see anybody drafting Bo Nix and starting him right away. Penix maaaaybe if he goes to a similar offense that he played in college and plays light out in camp and the pre season. But I don’t think either of them are ready to start as of right now.
@@johnnycash8567 and they asked Russ to get rid of the injury clause in his contract that fully guarantee everything. They didn’t ask him to restructure the amount he makes per year. Restructuring the financials of a contract and removing an injury clause are not the same thing.
Ohhhh he was saying McNabb🤦🏾♂️
At what point did being called a nice guy become an insult
I mean, Pittsburgh rn is probably a better situation than Denver was, if we're being honest
As a Bengals fan, I'd hate to see that, though lol
For shady to say Big Ben is the Steelers greatest qb tell me all I need to know😂😂💀
Who is Bradshaw ?
My point 😂😂
This is brilliant for Russ if it's true. Basically, a 1 year free hit to audition on a team for a season & if it goes well, a team the next season can give you a longer deal
So are we saying Pittsburgh got more potential than Atlanta?? 👀 ATL putting in crazii work and division is open for the taking!
It's the system. Everybody talks players, but they don't talk the system. That's what was bending and finally broke for Wilson in Denver. He might need a lot of scrappy run option offenses with two tight end packages at his age though.
Russ don't go back to Denver Broncos go to a team that plays against Denver Broncos
Mike doesn't like the drama. That's y none of the players u named with crazy personality are around lol russ fits. Mike wants a guy to perform and not make media noise that's russ. If he still has some left in the tank that is and that part who knows.
LET HIM COOK 😤
What is Acho talking about?
Wasn't people calling the. Browns defense generational this year?
All you kids keep saying “people hating on Russ” the fact is he was bad the last two years took way too many sacks he’s not the same anymore why can’t y’all see that his numbers was better his last year in Seattle and they even saw he wasn’t the same
Ok guys, i hear Lamar, Deshawn, Burrow, and Steelers 5 -1 in AFC north, division where 3 of 4 teams went to playoffs. Steelers with a (some) very medeocre QB's. Mason got real results because team respected his confidence & poise. Russ might need to prove he has that, but i am sure they have already seen that on tape of him.
I think Wilson had two coaches that weren't good for him and his skill set.
First coach was not good.
Payton is not that good either.
I said when Denver gave him all that money he's not that.
He doesn't know how to talk to players.
His style has not transcended to the new game.
Brees helped him.
Watch how he looks next season.
It won’t be with Denver I am sure he is going to do fine somewhere else
Acho is a mixture of Mr. T and Pootie Tang. Acho just needs a gold belt and for Molly to shake some sense into him.. What up J Jones, Town Business. Go Raiders!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Whenever played in the Super Bowl, cam Newton offensive Lynn broke down. They wouldn't block him. They looked just like when lamar jackson was that office is kind of very bad and they were not protecting cam newton
