....some of us predicted that he was done before the trade, I don't think that's on the coach. I'll grant that Hackett was in way over his head, but I think Russ is done. And I love that DEN threw the farm at him, one less we gotta compete with for at least another year or two.

The Russell Wilson thing is perplexing.

There seem to be elements of time taking its toll on the player, and elements of "I just made 250 million and have 8 bathrooms in all three of my houses, this nobody coach can't tell me what to do"

I heard an analyst say that Wilson loves to improvise and leave the scripted play when the first read isn't there.
But that his best production came when OC Schottenheimer forced him to do that much less. 
He doesn't have anyone forcing him to play within the play book and the play book was also suspect this year. 
Now add in that he can't run around and improvise as well as he once did and you arrive at our current state. 

Dude seems to be operating in his own little alternate reality. 

 Strange predicament for the broncos, and now their owner is saying the next HC will report directly to him, not the GM. 
ooooff.

It has never felt so good to have landed a really good QB, a really good coach, and to have an owner who will spend to the cap to get it right.
 Now we just have to manage the cap and TLs next deal. 
World's better than a yet another rebuild.
