I don't consider it an insult so much as an observation. Do with that what you will.

:suds:
You can’t show where Wilson’s contract contains a clause which says he’s required to elevate the play of others as you claimed, so you fall back on insults. That’s awesome.

You don’t know football. You don’t what players are responsible for and what coaches are responsible for.

Come back and continue this when you grow up.

You sound angry. Perhaps a few days away from the internet might help?

Sigh...

Does anyone have anything intelligent to say about Wilson's benching or has this thread run its course?

They were what? 1-5....and they went on a winning streak to get back into the WC race.

And apparently 2 months ago they wanted Wilson to restructure....he could have said fuck this and mailed it in. He didn't. He did what a leader does.....rally the troops and they started winning games....
Wilson’s play is what kept Denver in the hunt. It’s pretty clear that Payton had a personal grudge against Wilson from the time he was hired.

Wilson has had a negative thing attached to him ever since Seattle lost that Super Bowl against NE on the worst play call in Super Bowl history.

Part of it is Seattle was ridiculed when they drafted him. They called it a wasted pick because of his size. He proved those people wrong and they didn’t like it. There’s always been an element of the NFL establishment types which have wanted him to fail.

And what is more perplexing?

Payton had a shorter QB in NO with Brees.

SMH.

Wilson's play significantly contributed to the Broncos season not being a total dumpster fire. But it's arguable it was the defensive turnaround that powered the team's resurgence more so than production from the QB position. And with how massive Wilson's contract is, his performance didn't measure up.

He's had a great career. The Seahawks are a completely irrelevant franchise without him. He was a big part of two conference championships and a Super Bowl win. Seahawks fans should always have a special place in their heart for him. He didn't work out here in Denver.

Seattle is more relevant than the Broncos even without Wilson. That pisses off some people.


He did have a great run in Seattle. He could continue that in Denver if he had a coaching staff which knew what to do with him.


I know Denver fans are still upset about that embarrassing Super Bowl loss.

1-2 vs 3-5.

Brees was a complete different personality than Wilson. There’s an obvious personality clash with Wilson and Payton and it has impacted Payton’s coaching decisions. Payton was and is a very overrated coach.

I’m not the one spewing insults. Just admit that you made a dumb comment.
We have intelligent Chiefs and Raiders fans coming in here nd they are always welcome. But I’d suggest that when you are a guest in someone’s house you learn the rules of the house.

No one here,frankly, cares a lick about your comments about our team.

That’s Irrelevant to current times.

Denver is an also-ran every year now . There’s something wrong there and it must be starting at the top.

My point is nobody who is a Broncos fan is worried about that loss. Nobody who is a Broncos fan would trade the Broncos legacy for the Seahawks. If we're talking only by today's standards, then a fan of one irrelevant franchise is camped out on the page of another irrelevant franchise. At least I can say the Broncos are my team. I'd also argue that your continued presence here suggests the Seahawks are less relevant even to you than the Broncos are. But don't worry: you're not the first. The Broncos as a franchise just seem to get into Seahawks fans' heads. I guess they wish the Seahawks had the legacy the Broncos do.

Obviously they do care or they wouldn’t respond with insults

It is, isn't it? Broncos living rent free in the minds of Seahawks fans. I don't understand it either given the move to the NFC OVER TWENTY YEARS AGO. If that wasn't enough, surely that Super Bowl win over the Broncos should have been enough to excise all the demons. Apparently not.

It's a good feeling on this side though. The Broncos are the most relevant team in many cities across the country. Seattle is one of them.

Did someone wearing a Seahawks t shirt touch you in a bad place once? Or did a Seahawks fan steal your girlfriend?

To be fair I told her it was okay and believe me the pleasure was all mine.

I watched Wilson play for ten years. I’m not sure why someone thinks it says something odd for anther person to follow his career and comment on his performance or how he is being treated in a different place.
