    Interesting stats for fans down on Geno and/or Russ

    Um, I have been arguing from the Giants game on and including the post season loss because going 12-4 and losing in the first round is kind of a big deal

    And for the record, we did not win all of those games. We lost two of them, including a first round playoff flop.

    Interesting stats for fans down on Geno and/or Russ

    The offense was held to twenty points or less in 4 of those six games. Russell took 18 sacks and through 4 interceptions. Meanwhile the rushing game averaged about 140 yards a game and the defense held teams to well under 20 points average. So sure, Wilson played a role, but it was not as...

    Once again, wins and losses are a TEAM effort.

    That’s not my narrative at all. But whatever. My narrative is that he played at an elite level for many many years. We were fortunate to enjoy watching him dazzle fans and befuddle coaches. But starting in 2020, defenses adapted, and Russell was unable:unwilling to adjust his play style to...

    Do you not remember sitting through those games? Wilson was lost. Stats don’t often tell the story.

    Russell Wilson performed at an elite level from 2013 to 2020a. He has not since then.

    The irony is I think we have had a top ten team. We just had bottom 5 coaching (coordinators specifically).

    LOL. The TEAM wins and losses. And players play bad during wins, and good during losses. Wilson played bad during that stretch. Again, look it up, read the articles. Watch the games. As far as jilted lover, that ain’t me.

    Wins and losses are team stats, not individual. Look at Wilson’s last 6 games that season, from NYG through the playoff loss and tell me the wheels did not fall off. Everyone with eyes and an ounce of football knowledge saw it happening live. The Giants blueprinted him with cover two doubling...

    Instead he just kept holding on to the ball, running around and waiting for the deep boundary routes which were both double covered. Meanwhile the slot or TE was sitting in the middle of the field wide open waving his arms.

    but in 2020 the wheels fell off, and he just didn’t have the skill set to adjust or humility to accept his limitations.

    Interesting stats for fans down on Geno and/or Russ

    I have no doubt in my mind that when factoring what Wilson could do with his feet and improv skills, he was in that category with Brees and Brady and Manning on a season to season basis. But over the course of a career? Even without the last two years factored in? Not a chance. But if Russ had...

    Oh I get that it is hyperbole. The problem is that one side of the argument tends to take an extreme position . . . Geno is nothing more than a quality backup. That kind of statement fits the hyperbole. But the opposite side is saying “Geno Smith is above average” and somehow that gets...

    Beating cover two is easy. Run the ball. Don’t double down on “let Russ cook”

    Not to the extent that they did after the Giants game.
