Now we can speculate anything we want, but you can't achieve those types of stats year in and year out for nearly 10 years as a poser QB. Any QB would have to be pretty talented to reach those numbers. Especially when your OL, running game and defense are all near the bottom of the league for the last three years or so. I mean, keep in mind that Russ has only had two seasons where he wasn't sacked at least 41 times in a season.
I don't know what is going on in DEN, and I can't say that it displeases me at all, but methinks Russ is not the biggest part of the problem there. Maybe the second biggest, but something else is going on for him to fail so miserably, considering his level of performance/success over most of his career.

We've changed everything but the core components of the offensive line, and our receiver core is trash, plus no solid Y tight end. Only Sutton stands out, and with Patrick out...he stands alone.
Just about every offensive skill position has tore their ACL in the past 2-3 years, too.
