    Russell Wilson Retires

    He was great before Russell Wilson became Russell Wilson Corp.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    Everything you said sounds like common sense to me. I do appreciate Russ though. I appreciate that his egomaniacal behind the scenes tantrums allowed us to rip off a team I don't like and build a championship core.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    Like I'm going to read all that. I barely read the longer crap I post. The title made it sound like a news discussion. "Russell Wilson Appreciation Thread" isn't all that long of a title.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I was confused about whether it was an appreciation thread due to the lack of the words "appreciation thread" in the title that doesn't even appreciate the subject enough to spell his name correctly.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I don't think a great deal of authenticity is needed for those studio pregame shows. They're largely scripted without much off the cuff thinking that's more than a few lines here and there on something they're all experts on.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I actually think he'll do very well in his new role. I remember being incredibly impressed with him on the Manningcast. I always thought people who assumed he could coach were delusional, as his game seems to be based almost exclusively on feel and instinct, but he's a confident, well-spoken guy...

    Ring of Honor

    I don't know why Lockett would be in before Earl.

    Alexander should have made it by now btw. He absolutely has the numbers, but is a victim of a RB logjam. I think he gets in as a senior committee nomination in the future. With bellcow backs being a thing of the past, his numbers will continue to look impressive.

    Kayvon Thibodeaux rumor

    This seems like a no-brainer. And Fowler shouldn't play into it. Nothing bad about having both and it's not like we're super committed to him anyway. Kind of like signing MVS last year didn't lock him into the final roster.

    One-day contract for Russell Wilson

    He wanted out, he got out. I consider him the best QB in franchise history, but I'm not making any special concessions for him at this point. I honestly don't even care if he gets the ROH, although I assume he likely will. Besides, he announced his retirement already. Either he didn't want...

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I'm not understanding this thing that one person is saying where MVPs and All-Pro are apparently irrelevant and don't matter to the voters, but stats like QB rating, which heavily favor recent QBs do. No reasonable person would have Joe Montana outside the top 3-5 QBs of all time. He currently...

    Russell Wilson Retires

    That doesn't answer my question of which modern inductees his stats "dwarf". Looks like you just cherry picked some categories without mentioning how he compares to others (I already addressed QB rating), used only part of his career, and then did the whole "you just don't like him" garbage. I...

    Russell Wilson Retires

    Which modern inductees does he "dwarf"? If these guy's stats are being compared to the QBs of the 60s, everyone will get in. You could say Aikman, which is still modern-ish, but he has that whole three championships thing. Warner has volume stats that fall behind, but he has one of the...

    Russell Wilson Retires

    Well yeah, we probably win that game with Max Brosmer under center, but Russ played a prodigious role in leading the team that far. If he goes down with an injury in Week 3 and we have to trot out Trevone Boykin the rest of the season, Niners fans can likely watch their most recent championship...

    Elijah Arroyo going forward

    He's one of our players whose potential I'm most excited about. I'm always jealous of these teams that have elite receiving TE options, while our best in franchise history was probably 60% of prime Jimmy Graham.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    Since I know I'm going to end up getting into it anyway when people disagree with my last point, here's what Russ has working against him for the HOF, especially now that the NFL has made a conscious decision to let fewer players in: - His volume stats are good, but not good enough to overcome...

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I can respect that he's first ballot in your heart, but he was a long shot for the Hall BEFORE they tightened up voting. He has virtually no chance now, and if he does get in, it won't be anywhere close to first ballot.

    Wilson in talks with CBS

    I'm not recalling many examples of that. Typically those guys stay on the studio thing unless they get fired. Pretty cush gig.

    Russell Wilson Retires

    I'm glad we didn't do the one-day contract thing with Russ. He wanted out, he got out. Obviously no HOF for him, couldn't care less either way if he gets ROH.

    Wilson in talks with CBS

    I think he's just doing pregame network studio stuff. I havn't watched those in years anyway.
