Russell Wilson signs with the Giants
 

Jameis and Fat Russ in the same QB room… interesting.

Bet lil' Russ always dreamt of being called a giant.

Lots of queers in NYC, makes sense for him

Woof. So long Brian Daboll.

Bring him Home to the Chiefs staff in 2026?

NYG are on a Road to Nowhere

Go full on rebuild and abandon this garbage, mercenary Russ isn't taking you turds anywhere

Daboll was coach of the year a few years ago, he’ll make it work!

They can still draft Shedeur…

Jesus Christ. Give it up man. Just go relax next to a pool somewhere.

That is an all-time atrocious QB room

Late career Russell Wilson or Late career Jamis Winston?

Hey, Jameis is only 31, that's not late career. He could still be slanging picks near a decade from now

lol, if I were a Giants fan I'd rather see Winston

Yet still miles better than it was last year...

Nabers on my fantasy team. I was really hoping for Winston to start.

Daboll it's now or never for him!

By all means they should also draft Sanders to sit behind Russ and watch him cook, lol

ROFL


Russell Wilson must be awkward as a MF to be around. I remember when they went overseas to play a game and he was supposedly doing burpees on the plane or some shit ROFL


edit

WTF are they thinking here?

High draft choice, brought in Winston, now Wilson!

Smh, Giant fans are like, WTF did we fans do to deserve this cruel & unusual punishment?

Chiefs have had way worse.....

Manning. They deserve eternity of hell for Manning.

Big markets its about off season hype and selling the tickets. :p

Ooohhh Tater....:shake:

Imagine being a Giants fan.

He'll probabky stick there for a couple years becsuse of how incompetent they are.

Giants Country, let's Fee Fie Foe...:shrug:

Is he really a 10 time Pro Bowler?

That's HOF caliber right there.

Four SB wins. They've done alright for themselves prior to this spell.

Epic mistake.

Wilson will probably make the Hall. Not first ballot, but he will get in eventually

Prior to his last season in Seattle I’d have argued Russ was setting himself up for the Hall, but these last few years have really done a number on his legacy and I’m no longer sure he deserves it.

Just lol. Giants are going to be a dumpster fire. Again.

My personal belief is that he is not a hall of famer.

But they have lowered the bar in recent history and eventually someone will lobby hard enough for him to get in.

Better than Daniel Jones. Good God, that guy sucked so bad

He gets in for sure if not for that one throw in the SB against New England. Back to back SB wins looks strong for voters.

But he'll probably get in anyway.

On a related note, I just came across this interview earlier today. It was interesting hearing Pete and Richard Sherman talk about it.

Given the circumstances, calling a pass play there really did make great philosophical sense.

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cw90r7wWTsc?si=OSf4Os3BnPpxQqMi&amp;start=80" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>

It’s only like 5 minutes so I’d recommend giving it a listen, but if you’re not interested, Pete basically just says there was like :30 left and they only had 1 timeout. He knew he wanted to be able to use all four downs so they knew they’d need to pass the ball on at least one down. They sent out 11 personnel and Bill sent out the goal line package. If you look before the ball is snapped, it really would have been 8 defenders in the box vs only 6 blockers. Passing on that down made perfect sense.

Another interesting note, and what is more relevant to this conversation, is that Pete and Richard both agreed that if they’d have won SB 49, they’d have gone on to win SB 50 as well. Obviously that’s probably some wishful thinking but they really did look like a potential budding dynasty. Unfortunately that loss just fractured the whole team and their run pretty much ended there.

But yeah, if Russ doesn’t throw the INT there he is a first-ballot guy.

He really needed that ball to be thrown low. That one either needs to be caught by the Seahawks receiver or hit the turf.

It was too dangerous to attempt a pass there. Too much can go wrong unless you literally have a wide open man running into the end zone, like Moore/Toney against the Eagles in SB 57. Otherwise, there's a big risk of an INT. If you run and get stuffed, you call that final timeout.

Even in hindsight the play makes little sense.

Probably, letting Cleveland know that they will not pay anything to move up 1 spot. Both the Wilson and winston deals are really backup money if they do not hit incentives. Guessing if Cleveland passes on Sanders, Cleveland would like to stay in the top 4 and also get an extra pick.
