There’s actually 3 quarterbacks who are better than WilsINT in the division, with much better rosters, and coaches. This feels more like Goff going to Detroit, than Manning going to Dungver. Enjoy that last place finish again Dungkey fans. We’ll enjoy the salty yummy tears.

Sounds like they dumped him at the right time...didn't want to pay him. Found some sadsack organization trying to boost their asking price to a new owner.
His agent is worried if he doesn't produce this season like in the past, it'll hinder his ability for a 5/250 contract at 35.
They have the Donks over a barrel...would he actually be this arrogant to hold out before ever playing a snap.. without an extended contract? I can see his angle/injury concerns...why risk costing yourself millions. He's as good as he's ever going to be at this point. The odds of them struggling in the competitive AFCW is higher than being a contender...new QB, OC/DC, poor OL.
Seahawk fans say "Russ plays for team green"...Donk brass have positioned themselves to have zero leverage in this negotiation. That is the market price for a starting QB.
Man...I hope they hitch their wagon to a fully guaranteed contract until he's 39. If he falls off a cliff...they are stuck with his ass.
There was a reason Wilson was available...and Rodgers wasn't. Franchise QBs dont hit the market without spine issues...or unrealistic contract demands.

John Elway set his career high for TD passes in a season when he was 37 years old
Steve Young did it too at 37
Peyton Manning threw 55 TD's at 37 years old
Aaron Rodgers set his career high for TD passes at 37 years old
Tom Brady had a career high 5,316 passing yards and threw 43 TD's, the second-most of his career, at age 44
Brett Favre had the highest QB Rating of his career at 40 years old
Russell Wilson spends over $1,000,000 per year on his body and even hired Michael Jordan's and Kobe Bryant's personal trainer. He plans on playing at a high level for the next 10 years.
lol at QJ
comparing Wilson to that list is the most ridiculous post yet... and he has had some doozies [Reply]

He manages to outdo himself every time he posts. Which is very hard to accomplish. His last post, from a few weeks ago, said that Wilson was crushing it lately and had turned it around. :-) [Reply]
