Carrying the team

[SoulfishHawk]

Come on guys, I'm just fine. I'm going to take your comments as sarcasm. It's just a message board. People get pissed off after losses.
I'll bow out of the conversation.

You post his stats like he's the second coming of Johnny Unitas, so yeah.

And why do I post Wilson's stats right below them?

Because your trying to justify defending Geno.

I would like to say that I LOVE you.

The amount of extreme hate and well, literally the most bad words you can type on the internet that you have shoved at me for a decade.


Dude, you feel it. Respect.

Because your trying to justify defending Geno.

I post Geno's stats as an example of what the stats of a not good quarterback look like. If you think those stats tell a different story, maybe think they paint a picture that looks like "the second coming of Johnny Unitas," well that's on you to explain.

This thread is about Russ, and the results of his stepping back from "carrying the team."

I compare their stats to show just how bad Wilson is doing, how little Denver is getting for the money, and, yes, occasionally, just to show how bad some of y'all are at this.

But, do go on. Keep trying to pretend I'm defending Geno, and maybe check for some windmills over there, Don.

Thanks Red. I rarely type any cuss words on here, but I get it. I'm gonna' try to mellow out overall, good for the BP.

Stats are nice to hide behind when you cant see the big picture for yourself. I agree, Russ isnt playing great and he isnt putting up ungodly numbers like he usually does, but he'll figure it out. The Broncos should be 3-0 right now despite how Wilson is playing. They would have beaten Seattle by double digits if it werent for a historical two fumbles at the goal line. Last week Russ continued his bad play, but he lead the team down the field for the win when it mattered. Thats what he does. He wins. That is something Geno Smith never could or will do. Throw out all the stats you want, but thats the bottom line.

Except in the playoffs the last seven years. Wait, all the marks blame only Carroll for those losses. 2018, sure Carroll is absolutely to blame. The other seasons, lion's share of the blame squarely on Russ' shoulders.

The Rams game when Pete didnt deviate at all from the game plan he used just two weeks earlier doesnt count? Overcoming ineptitude coaching is hard for any QB, even Wilson. Damn near impossible as been shown.

What coaching plan was that? Are there any articles or videos backing up that theory?

It was basically mentioned numerous times during the broadcast. Also, here's great coaching for you - your QB is getting killed and zero rollouts were called. Come on man.

Well know this.

Your heart and soul for your team I respect. And I do not say that lightly.

I have enjoyed hating you. I like that - when our teams are good or bad, we feel it.


I call the Rams my babies. Online, and in person.


In a different place I post at. The winner of the SB gets to name the next year NFL thread.

My thread title:

NFL 2022 - 2023: my babies win it all. LOS ANGELES Rams, the team of Destiny


eta: happy to share a link to that thread if any of you wanna go talk to real NFL fans.

Donkee's Lose
That's one hell of a good day.

Who's hiding? I was going to come and post some more stats, but, just go look at the main Seahawks forums. I'll let everyone else carry the water this week.

One of my favorite stats of the week, though. Waitman, 5 punts for 241 yards. Dickson... no punts.

Well Russ is already a Jackass so he should have no problem shouldering the load...good old #3 especially now that Williams is done for the year

Got some creepy and cheesy vibes from that

 

[SoulfishHawk]

as creepy as obsessing on a former player 24/7 365 who clearly didn't want to be here?
He's gone, it's a good thing. On to next Sunday at New Orleans.

Does any QB not have the competency of mind to move when the defense shows the pressure they are bringing? This is a really lazy argument you are proposing.

If not moving from pressure repeatedly because the coach said so is the excuse of any QB, then it really does not demonstrate much for that QB.

Of course we all know this is not in the least the reality. More likely the QB doesn't know how to make those very movements or adjustments necessary to avoid the pressure.

What's become clear is the former QB was much more responsible for the perceived failures than the current QB who has moved, adjusted, and executed through the first four games of this young season.
