Let's Get Down To It...What Side Are You On?

[AROS]

I am of the belief that Russ still has plenty to offer us as a Franchise QB assuming he can work within the system designed to maximize his potential. But regardless of nuances, let's just get down to brass tacks. Do you want Russell to stay or do you want to trade him?

Hopefully a good thread w/out 75 shots at the guy. It's a good question :irishdrinkers:

 

[jammerhawk]

Interestingly 100% of the votes are for him to stay, so far.

Agreed my friend. The vitriol is thick and unwarranted, IMO.

 

[sutz]

It really is too hard to find a legitimate franchise QB. Stay.

I am with you old friend.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Sure the salary is very high, but you don't just let franchise QB's go. Unless they were to get some ridiculous offer that nobody would pass on, he needs to be here.

 

[AROS]

Absolutely. You don't let a generational future Hall of Famer go unless you have a sound backup plan, assuring future success with the new QB but we all know that is an impossibility. Nobody can predict the future.

As a 9er fan I hope he stays. As long as he's in Seattle the Hawks wont even sniff a SB. RW is just too expensive. Unless he takes his money in incentives, you won't be able buy any supporting cast.

The salary of even a Tannehill type QB is now at $30M+ APY.

The problem with how the Hawks spend money and draft capital has nothing to do with the QB.

 

[KinesProf]

I voted stay. I've also remained pro-Pete staying.

I am of the firm belief that it is salvageable. To what extent of success that may look like is the question.

I'm on Ciara's side . What ever she says . I'm good . :irishdrinkers:

 

[Elemas]

I agree that there’s been some decline. Some of the decision making was questionable. No one beats Father Time so the mobility does decrease. I don’t know how much of what we saw was due to injury as he was on a tear for the first few games.

I still believe in him if not for any other reason than what’s already been stated. Good QBs are hard to find.

Let’s see what you think when Jimmy G detonates (again) this weekend with his also too expensive asssss

 

[Elemas]

The ideal story here is that Russ wins a few more here in Seattle. Fight through the adversity. Fight through the gossip and negativity.

Tom Brady’s path was/is impressive…no doubt. The thought was they were just a good QB away from taking it all.

But imagine going from not making the playoffs after all of those times of getting in…winning a SuperBowl along the way…suffering an inconsolable SB loss….being counted out…..

….and then taking it all again.

You want to talk legendary status and keys to the city…statue outside type shiat…(ok…going overboard here but you get the idea).

That’s what I want to see.

 

[JayhawkMike]

Once he CHOSE to no longer use his legs as weapon in all but rare circumstances he became a far less valuable player. Trade please.

He won't be here next year win or lose. Can you say the same for RW?

Is it possible for 12s to stick to the topic or is whataboutism your calling cards?

I’m guessing you said the same thing about RW last season. Maybe you’re right. Maybe he won’t be here.

Good luck.

 

[nwHawk]

Used to love him, but I’m ready to move on. I want someone with something to prove. I don’t feel sorry about wanting him traded last off-season. This season just reaffirmed my feeling. Time to move on. Next man up!

 

[Chawker]

KEEP HIM !
