Even in their loses Russ wasn't the reason this year. He should be in the top mix for come back player of the year.

Would be hilarious to win the CPOTY and usually people have reasons like injury but for Russ it just Hackett

If Peyton didn’t become washed the last quarter or so of the season he might’ve been able to challenge Rodgers for MVP

I hope they make the playoffs and make a deep run.

Russ also rushing today looked great.

Establish the Russ.

The shit I said about Payton and Russell might need to be retracted.

[–] korean2na@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

At least you're mature enough to admit it. Just like I owe Vance Joseph an apology.

Now that we don’t have their picks I love that for him and the team. Let’s ride.

Hackett is a football terrorist

Rememebr a month ago when people were seriously claiming that Sean Payton was the worst trade in NFL history? Lol

[–] TideAtOmahaBeach@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

That was always such a terrible take too lol. We gave up a late first and a pick swap for Payton. I’m sure having Bryan Bresee or Nolan Smith would have made a much bigger difference for the team this year than one of the best coaches in the league.

Russell Wilson last year threw the same or less touchdowns than Bridgewater, Case Keenum, Drew Lock, and Trevor Semien. Jesus Christ…

[–] inkyblinkypinkysue@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Crazy that Peyton Manning’s corpse still had 39 TDs. He was an all-timer.

[–] 3klipse@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

In 2014 he was still good, just tore his quad near the end of the year and that's when he started going downhill and then into 2015.
