    Since Payton stopped Russ from trying to cook, and just let him prepare the salads and vegetables, he’s been reasonably effective.

    He’s still being paid like an elite chef at a top restaurant though.

    Outside of the TD throw and one of those late shovel passes to Perine, he didn’t look great. He didn’t actively harm the team but they had great field position all night and couldn’t capitalize.

      He’s in the Hall of fame conversation and has been for years. Didn’t change after last year.

      He’s on pace to retire top 10 in wins, passing TDs, passing yards (this one might be iffy but he’ll probably hit the 50k mark), 4th all time in passer rating currently, and of course, he was a major contributor on a SB winning team.

      He has a better resume outside of raw volume than Rivers and will probably get close enough to his totals anyways. A lot of people think Rivers will make the Hall. I think it’s likely (probably due to public pressure) but I think the HOF voters may personally not want to let him. Rivers who’s never even sniffed a SB appearance let alone a win, or won a major award would basically open the floodgates for modern QBs.

      Matt Ryan, Russel Wilson etc, become basically shoo ins if he’s inducted. They already have much better résumé’s than Rivers.

      Wilson won’t be an innocent circle Hall of Fame or first ballot or anything but he’ll get in eventually. And probably quicker if he manages to do some great things at Denver before the end of the contract.

    Idk man russ has been better but he lost them a couple of games early on people forget things very quickly in sports. Russ was having good statistical games while giving up game losing plays. Good that they’re finally winning

    When Russell’s efficiency was otherworldly in Seattle his volume was low as well. Turns out Pete Carroll knew what he was doing, fucking nuts.
