At least our ownership didn’t make the Deshaun Watson trade. I don’t think I’d have been able to stomach rooting for the team anymore if they had. Not only is he a predatory piece of shit but he’s not played much, and when he has it’s not impressive. Cleveland sold their future (and their soul) for nothing.

Russ, on the other hand, despite having issues last year and maybe not actually playing as good as his stats say this year, is a Walter Payton man of the year and an all around good (maybe corny) guy. A great role model for young fans to look up to. I’d take him any day of the week over Watson, even if Watson was playing lights out elite.

And now the team has Payton at the helm, looks to be turning it around in all 3 phases, and is in a roll.

So no matter what happens with Russ this season and beyond, I love this team and let’s fucking ride, Broncos Country.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

    I think it’s totally fine to follow players from team to team, especially if they are the one that got you into the sport! I’m super happy to have Russ both for his off the field attributes and his on the field play. The improvisation and running is something I’ve been dying to see from a Broncos QB.

      Yeah, oddly I’m also a Kawhi fan since I saw him play in high school (same league). I’ve followed him from SA to Toronto to the Clippers, and I never thought in my life I’d follow the clippers, but here I am subscribing to Bally’s sports to watch Clippers game on occasion haha. (And I dislike harden haha)

      I hope he can just stay healthy, but at the end of the day, but I don’t think anyone is getting past the Nuggets and the cheat code named Jokic. That team is incredible, and I’m thrilled they won the chip last season.
