Considering the Broncos are very much alive for the playoffs they are basically making the decision to move from Wilson now.

 

Regardless I actually though he had a solid bounce back type of year and can't blame him for losing to the Patriots.

I saw where Payton was screaming at him on the sidelines. 

 

That had to be very embarrassing 

 

If you need to tear your player a new one do it in private

Sounds like they got plan from the LV Raiders.

Injury guarantee or no, won't they have a catastrophic dead cap if they trade/release him ?

Russ cooking with a pack of ramen and a boiled hot dog. He has no connection with Jeudy and now Sutton is banged up. It was a disaster move even with him not being as terrible as he was last year, so this seems inevitable.

Russ has actually had a pretty decent season for the most part even though he's asked to do a lot of things outside his skillet. 

 

Payton was always going to get rid of him after this year and get "his guy".

so you're telling the players and fans that making the playoffs and winning is not more important than saving money. How nice

 

They are telling players and fans that it was a screw up to sign Wilson.

Fixed it for you.  Just went thru the NY Times playoff simulator.  Best I could get were there chance up to 11%  thru this weekend and that was with some unlikely outcomes this week.  I get it, anything can happen, but is unlikely they get in.  They also are playing a 4:25 game so could wait to see outcome of earlier games and make a last minute call.

They have benched him officially, per Schefter.

From what I see they eat 35 million dollars in a release and close to 19 million if they trade him.   

[FireChans]

He’s benched already lol

Very disappointed with all the Sean Payton antics this years right down to the throwing "our buddy" Nathanial Hackett under the bus (even though he deserved it).  Payton's ego is wildly out of control and it manifests itself in some very destructive counterproductive outcomes.  He is no longer a young wonderkid but an aging  angry old Head Coach.  He should have kept his TV gig.

He should probably trip on a rubber mat.

Lucky for Denver that Cleveland traded for Watson otherwise this is the worst trade out there

[Ridgewaycynic2013]

Payton saw the Jets are sitting their  Wilson.  Just a case of keeping up with Saleh. 😁

Let Russ simmer
