I've wondered how Broncos fans feel about Russ going to Pittsburg and immediately fitting in with a new offense. He still has a competitive drive even though he's unfathomably rich.

His numbers aren't exactly eye-popping but he's worked well within a very good head coach's system. There's no shame in losing to a talent show like Baltimore.

I mean Pittsburgh has been a better team than Denver for like a decade so it’s not exactly an apples to apples to comparison like if he went to the Browns or someone similar.

He still does plenty of the bad Russ things that he did in Denver, takes too many sacks, stupid turnovers, etc but obviously he has improved a bit from what he was 2 years ago and slightly from last year.

I think to a lot of Denver fans what makes the situation more than ok is they found their QB who is better or at least comparable to Russ in a lot of categories and they don’t have to pay him 35 million a year
