The Rise And Fall of Russell Wilson

Bruh Russ didn’t get benched for drew lock, he got benched for jarred stidham lmao. Drew lock has been with the Seahawks for 2 years now

Kids nowadays don’t know how good prime Russ was 😢

as an Eagles fan. Im saying right now. Get ready for the Steeler version of Russ. This dude gonna merk people

I wouldn't say having a 26-8 TD-Int ratio in 15 games and being benched because the terrible team wants to avoid the risk of giving you an injury settlement is "fallen off"

Fun fact: russ went back to football because his dad passed away, and wanted to do what he loved best

Russell really never fell off,he just got traded and benched,sure he's a locker room cancer,but he's a great quarterback,definitely one of the best qbs,he literally kept the Seahawks above 500 for the past 9 years,his legacy still lives on as the Seahawks still are above 500,top 50 qb for sure

Thanks Denver. Sincerely, Pittsburgh Steelers.

If not for Pete Carroll's idiotic call in the Super Bowl, Wilson's legacy might be completely different!

Fall? He had better stats than “MVP” Lamar Jackson…people are so casual

He was really good with The Seattle Seahawks he won a super Bowl with in his second year. He played for my home state team I am from Washington its a shame he sunk a little I wish he still played for The Seattle Seahawks I miss Russell Wilson :( I do like the Broncos also but I wish played for Seattle I miss him big time :(

He took the lead in Atlanta with 42 seconds left in the playoffs his rookie year. The defense that "carried" him couldn't hold atl out of field goal range.

I am a patriots fan and it pains me to say this, but it’s the truth. If the decision to throw it on the one yard line was a decision to run it instead Russell Wilson would have two Super Bowl rings right now.

He’s a great player. The problem with the end of his run in Seattle is that ownership spent too much money on Russell Wilson and too little to build up the rest of them team when the Legion of Boom left. Russell Wilson deserves to get rewarded for his hard work like anyone else but when it comes to the NFL you have to balance between reward your players for hard work and maintaining a team that can win Super Bowls.

After the 1st Arizona game in 2020, Russ was never the same player. All the fans saw it, and a lot of us were a bit fed up with him not playing up to his contract

As a Seahawks fan, I’ve watched every snap of Russel Wilson’s career. It’s apparent that many of his detractors don’t know what they are talking about. After the Super Bowl run, the Seahawks consistently had a bottom tier offensive line. Management chose to invest in defensive stars and skimp on O line. Russ was running for his life every snap. Remember, this is the team who actually converted a TE and Defensive linemen into STARTING tackles! What a joke. Schneider threw Russ to the wolves because Russ was a god at scrambling and throwing on the run. Eventually, this strategy led to little injuries that added up. Russ got blamed for “slipping”. So sad. If Tom Brady was the qb he would have gotten killed. I believe he got sick of not being protected and forced his way out. Unfortunately he went for the money and went to a team with no one around him. I feel he will do well in Pittsburgh with better coaching and talent around him.

The end for Russ was on the goal line in the fourth quarter durring his second superbowl. He called an audible because he wanted to throw the game winning touchdown pass because he was still bitter about not winning MVP the year before. Instead, he effectively threw away his career by being selfish. He had Marshawn fucking Lynch in his backfield and needed one yard. They could have told the Pat's what play they were running and still made it. It was brilliant the way Carrol played out the end of Russels' contract, though. Fooled the whole league into thinking Russ was still an elite quarterback who could single handedly win games.

This video sounds like a book report on Russ from someone who didn't watch him play. In his prime, Russ was houdini at escaping defensive pressure which drove every one of his stats. Not a word of it here.

Drew lock did not play in the last 2 games of the 2023-24 season, Jarrett Stidham did. Drew lock was one of the players that was traded to the Seahawks. Drew lock started in week 14 and 15 for the seahawks because Geno Smith was injured. We lost to the 49ers in week 14, but put together a game winning drive to beat the Eagles 20-17.

Bro had one bad year two years ago & you're ready to bury him? I don't get it.

Being an SD charger fan for 20 years, I moved to Seattle. I thought I'd never have a Superbowl ever. But I was loyal. Then Russell was in, and I thought, whatever it is, what it is. I never thought Russell could get it done. I was naysayer like everyone else. When the Seahawks won the SB, I was so happy. I lived in Las Vegas, and the UNLV rebels won a national championship. I was in hog heaven. What a life.
