Believe it or not, you can appreciate how good Russ was AND appreciate how good Geno is. It's not that hard. But he's too busy whining like a 3 year old who got his little feelings hurt. It's hilarious. Many of us have moved on a long time ago. He just has to hold on to his hate, it's pathetic.
The dude is long gone, we won the trade. Get the f over it ScUTter.
You also said this... in this thread about Geno:
'Lol. He is an average\pedestrian QB. I admit he had a good, unlike Geno season. Yeah he made the pro-bowl because the NFC's QB list is all pretty much crap and he also got the CBPOY award because he finally had a season in which he didnt suck. Take all those numbers and it looks great and it still only equated to a 9-8 record. Average. Yep, average. Wins are what I care about. When he can start doing that, i'll reevaluate my position on him.'
So while I agree that the responses to you might be a bit extreme, to claim to have some appreciation for Geno seems like a poorly veiled attempt to simply move off of the fact Russ was rightly jettisoned and the team is better for it.
You are quick to say things like the above where you're 'thankful' Wilson is gone, but then still beat the horse of there having been some alternate reality where Russ wasn't allowed to play well, or that his failures were a result of poor play calls (while he was here and apparently still now in Denver). It smells of the worst John63 times, and you're better than that.
And it's hard to believe you're happy Russ is gone when you defend him with vintage J63 conspiracy theories and then slam Geno as an average Qb who just got lucky and will revert back to who he really is.
It's just not believeable. With all respect, you're just talking out of both sides of your mouth and your quick attempt to interject the 'let's move along' posts into any threads (talking about relevant ones) shining a light on Russ, just highlight that a reality where all the shine that #3 took for himself while he was here was in good part, unwarranted is uncomfortable for you - That he was great, but that his greatness has a pretty fat * next to it for how flawed he's shown to be. And worse - that the reality that we've moved on and are better now with PC still here and Geno running things, just hurts you. Which I honestly don't understand. Why the need to qualify every good thing Geno does and defend every bad thing Russ did? Calling Geno a success and pointing to stats and game review that shows he was capable of this all along and can sustain it isn't blind love for Geno. If anything, constantly characterizing the dude as average at best, is blindly slamming the guy over sour grapes that the guy you'd rather have here is gone. I know you'll respond that you're glad Russ was let go, but your staunch defense of the dude undermines any support you claim to have for the current situation.
