I mean, this quote from Russ says it all. Bold added

“This is a great team. We’ve got great players. I’m honored to be here. I’m honored to play with this team and these guys,” Wilson said, via Mike Klis of 9News. “There’s always noise, especially when things aren’t going the way you want it to all the time. The thing is that you don’t bad mouth. My biggest goal every day is to continue to try to lead at the highest level and to be consistent every day with my approach, to never change and not let the highs of life change you and not let the lows [change you]. Just be consistent with your approach, knowing that I love these guys every day, man, of who they are and what they’re about. . . . It’s a blessing to be on this team, and I’m honored.”

I agree, the knives ARE out.

I don't think it's undeserved based on the copious media attention Russ has chased after in his career. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

The trashing seems like a lot because it's concentrated in such a short period of time and people are reconciling their image of him to the reality of him now.

If anyone can stand another article (maybe overkill by this point) this writer is particularly colorful in his piece stating "How Bad is Russell Wilson? He just got Patrick Mahomes fexed out of prime time".

"...While the reasoning makes sense — a matchup of Justin Herbert and Tua Tagovailoa will move the needle more — this is yet another indignity for a Broncos team that traded the farm for Wilson, only to be rewarded with a donkey kick to the nether regions."
