Well, for two years, all I read around from here pointed to Russ never really being great in SEA. I didn’t buy into the notion initially, but it was obvious in the end. Russ can have some good games, statistically speaking. Never once did I have a belief last year that he could rally a team when it mattered though.
PIT was doing well before he got the start and they beat a … what was he called a few weeks ago… a “washed Rodgers” and Jets team in PIT. Nice win, but I’m not about to think Denver made a mistake in letting him go.
