People may hate Wilsons goofiness because they don't see his humor in it but I will always have respect and love for the guy. He may be a Bronco now but he will always be a Seahawk to me. He did give us his best that he could give on the field and you can't take that away from him.

I still love Russ. And Sherm. And Angry Doug. And Bobby.

Den 2-1
Sea 1-2

Lost against a rebuilding mostly terrible team (especially D wtf?).
BARELY won against a terrible team in general.
BARELY won against Jimmy Garporlrorlrorlol.

Yah... I'd be real proud of that 2-1 - against the MIGHTY Seahawks and Texans (lol seriously?) and then a Garpororlrorlol led 49er team. Broncos could easily be 0-3 at the moment, and should be 1-2 if Jimmy Garporlrrolrol wasn't a moron.

Seattle meanwhile is just terrible in general. At least they have an excuse. But all I heard about this offseason was, "OOOH Russell is finally going to better weapons and a better run game with a far superior OL and better defense!" And when Seattle fans were like, "Yah but he's losing his athleticism, can't scramble, holds onto the ball way too long, refuses to throw over the middle of the field, and drops far too back resulting in blame to his OL" all we heard was, "LOLOLOL SEATTLE FANS BITTER LOL BRONCOS SUPER BOWL." Yah fuck off.

I said NUMEROUS times on this forum (go search it yourself potential asshole) - I wouldn't be surprised if analysts and the social media were talking about the protection Wilson was getting from the Broncos OL and what the problem was by midseason. Well guess what? I was wrong.. it took 3 weeks. Hell there was articles on ESPN (Insider DERP) and PFF as well as social media already on it.

I hadn't realized that Geno was 2 years younger... Interesting...

I still DO NOT trust Geno!

When we needed that First down at the end of the game i just KNEW if they had Geno throw the ball he was getting either strip sacked or he was going to throw a INT. His history shows that when the game is on the line he coughs up the ball. Thankfully Penny carried the team on his back and got that Needed first down on 3rd and 5 with a 8 yard run.

Geno is balling out and if he continues to play at this level for 3 to 4 more games in a row I might start to drink the Kool-aid but not yet not now, I know better.

Sad truth is he is killing our top 5 draft pick. Maybe Wilson and the Broncos will give us that top 5 pick. lol

No, Geno won't win many games for you in the clutch. I think Carroll is hoping he doesn't have to.

If your team leans on Geno he screws up EVERY TIME! Maybe he can turn that around but his history of just that will always follow him around.

Well nice to see those stats and while no one believes those stats will hold up over the season it's still nice to see them for the first quarter of the season, seems like Seahawks are getting the bang for the buck and Broncos not so much.

I graded the trade (was one of the few) favorably for Seattle. Wilson is done. He doesn't have the mobility anymore to extend plays (which admittedly he was GREAT at, and he was smart about scrambling), refuses to throw over the middle, and is still doing the same shit of holding onto the ball too long and dropping way too far back in Denver, that he was doing in Seattle - yah, it's over.

I mean I'm happy to come back and eat crow if the Broncos win out and win a Super Bowl, but saying it now, Denver in hindsight (and not really since I said it to begin with) was the clear loser of that trade. "He'll actually have an offensive line!" FUCK YOU basically every analyst/social media dork... his OL has been fine, when an all pro left tackle is visibly yelling at you on the field and the QB, oh excuse me - team 3, is saying publicly the OL is a problem... yah... that pretty much says it all.
