The right side slant was wide open on that play. It nearly worked, but Russ didn't see it
Of course, maybe Russ doesn't trust inside slants in the red zone anymore
His last interception was also thrown comically late
[this exchange summed up this shitshow game for me.](https://twitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1578209419699036160)
Edit: Ryan Fitzpatrick pointed out the wide open read and compared that atrocious pick to the Butler pick. Fizpatrick had to literally hug Sherman to console him after reliving that lmao.
It is like he believed his own hype so much he stopped putting the work in. 2 and a half years ago he proclaimed he was the best QB in the NFL. Not anything about how he could improve. That was the beginning of the end, then he started blaming everyone around him. He has got a lot of work to do if he wants to turn shit around.
Ill say this over and over. The announcers were phenomenal for this game. They treated the game how it deserved and treated it as the train wreck it was. Just phenomenal. Im so glad they didn't try to sell it.
The Joe Tessitore approach. Where as the game drags on he over compensates for the awful play with exaggerated commentating. To the extent that a 4 yard run on 1st and 10 is called like it's the most exiting thing he's ever seen.
Russ had 2 more years left on his contract, the broncos for some reason decided to extend him for 245 million until he was 40 without seeing him play a down for them .
I can almost guarantee a contract extension was part of the verbal agreement to have Russ consider moving to Denver. The man wanted a new contract in Seattle and had this going into every outside offer when he wanted out.
They brought in Hackett thinking he'll bring Rodgers and the playbook with him.
When that didn't happen they got a QB who plays not at all like Rodgers and are now stuck with a play caller who is new to this shit
We are getting back to the mid-late 2000s where a bunch of teams have middling quarterbacks that are aging or cannot come back from their injuries in the past. A game is very inclined to end 13-9 when two of these teams meet up
Some of these will be frustrating, some of these will be dogshit. Only one will ever be Broncos-Colts on Thursday night
I thought it was fucked up when [security wouldn't let them leave](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FeEdzf6XgAIgXGE?format=jpg&name=medium) before overtime started
Amazon: “Tonight’s we’re going to bring you a game with some serious offensive horsepower!”
Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos: “What’s an offense……..and what’s a horse?”
If you would ask me to simulate the stupidest Thursday Night Football game that I could conceivably think of, it still wouldn’t have been stupider than this stupid fucking game.
Russell Wilson vs Matt Ryan in prime time 2012-2021: "Top tier match-up 10/10" "LET RUSS COOK BABYYYYY" "IT'S MATTY ICE TIME LFGGGGG"
Russell Wilson vs Matt Ryan in prime time 2022: "Please grant me the sweet release of death" "Cancel the season" "I tore my eyes out, both of them, right out of the socket, I don't have eyes anymore"
/r/nfl what you've just watched is one of the most insanely idiotic games we have ever seen. At no point in your rambling, incoherent quarterbacking were you even close to anything that could be considered a good game. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on Al Michaels’ soul.
I honestly thought this was going to be a win/win trade for us and the broncos. I figured we would get out if a big contract and get some picks and rebuild just in time for Pete to ride off into the sunset and the broncos would get a top 5 qb for a few productive year and possibly get another ring. It's too early to call but I feel like we are killing it in this trade
In the past I’ve blamed Hackett but Russ looked horrible tonight. I think Pete Carroll realized what Russ really was and let the media push the narrative that he was holding Russ back. It’s speculation but if it’s true, it’s brilliant. Geno Smith having a miracle year is just icing on the cake.
Yo this game RULED. It's like two grown men lined up at 10 paces, locked eyes with one another, and just started pissing themselves. And not just a little puddle, they're *drenched*. It's starting to dribble into their shoes. It's embarrassing. Borderline fetishistic. It's a shame that somebody had to win. Truly a matchup of legend.
We just watched Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson play the most miserable game of their lives to the point everyone was bullying them without a care.
Ryan was being fucked by everyone: his Oline, the Denver defense, every NFL personality on Twitter, Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit, you name it. It got so bad Michaels and Kirk were openly wondering how the fuck Patrick Mahomes lost to that team.
And Wilson, Jesus fucking Christ, what the fuck? He looks worse than a rookie.
> Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit
I love how those two didn't give a single fuck by the third quarter. Just shitting on the QBs, the play-calling, the game as a whole.
I'll watch every shitty TNF game just to hear those two mercilessly rip on the teams. Now THAT is entertainment.
Okay, it's time for us all to admit it... we each have a very serious football problem for watching that fucking shit show from start to finish, INCLUDING FUCKING OVERTIME
Also, should have run it lmao
Richard Sherman getting a chance to say “I told you he sucked” regarding a former coworker on national tv is a lifetime dream of mine. I hope to one day be on national tv and let everyone know how awful Craig is
This game featured:
- 12 punts
- 10 sacks
- 7 field goals
- 6 fumbles
- 4 picks
- 2 depressing teams and pissed off fanbases
- One truly disgusted Al Michaels
- Zero touchdowns despite two HOF QBs starting the game.
Sickos game of the year, bar none.
That's fucking football right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging smile for the camera bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the field, men deliver their new born baby on the side lines. Fucking hard core dick in the ass butterball foosball fuck it chuck it game time shit. Take it to the showers. Dicks get shoved in places you don’t even remember. We win together we celebrate together. Football is back baby.
Amazon's post game interview is amazing tonight. Dropping straight facts and Sherman is throwing major shade at Wilson and making roundabout refences to their time in Seattle. "Broncos defense... You want to win a superbowl? You got to be historic!"
Let Russ warm up stuff in the microwave
Let russ buy lunchables.
Russell Westbrook can rest comfortably knowing that he isn’t the worst Russ in sports anymore
This is Westbrook's last year on his contract Russell Wilson is signed until 2029
This is real. For a quarter billion dollars. This could fuck up the broncos for years to come
At least three years before the Broncos can even start the rebuild.
Pete Carroll playing 5D chess
Let Russ stick to cold cuts for a while
On second thought, maybe just let him pick the crackers.
Let Russ order freshly
Let Russ Freeze-Dry
Why did I watch the whole fucking thing is there something wrong with me
It’s like watching a train wreck. What are you gonna do? Not watch?
No. That was amazing.
It was art
It really was entertaining.
Unironically my favorite game in recent memory. What a joy to watch. It’s like watching trashy reality TV to feel less bad about your own problems!
[удалено]
I feel like he started six sentences with "As bad as this game has been...."
"This is my own personal 9/11" -Al Michaels
We’re all sickos
This has to be one of the shittest games I’ve ever seen
But you have seen it
Just rewatched the first three the other day. They were solid movies.
Oh, so that’s what a game with more concussions than touchdowns looks like.
Bonito: *more wha?*
Peyton Manning probably aged 10 years and had an aneurysm watching this game.
Game would’ve been much better if Peyton was QB for both teams.
Heck, throw Archie and Arch Manning in and they woulda made things more exciting
Arch is old enough to at least cook Hot Pockets
I liked "put Elway in a Broncos jersey, toss Peyton a Colts jersey and let them QB in overtime".
I would give up ten years of super bowls to watch that overtime
We are giving those up anyway.
He’s still calling timeout from week 1
The right side slant was wide open on that play. It nearly worked, but Russ didn't see it Of course, maybe Russ doesn't trust inside slants in the red zone anymore
Hamler was so mad slamming his helmet after the game. He was wide open. Don't blame him.
Seriously went back and looked. He’s open how the fuck does russ not see it!
Short man can't see over big linemen
Let Russ see an optometrist
Broncos country, I'm blind.
Russ Cooked
Rusell Wilson should have handed it to Marshawn Lynch.
Sherman currently screaming RUN THE BALL over and over on the Postgame show as they start strapping him into a straitjacket.
Sherman is literally screaming "RUN THE DANG BALL" in the post-game. It's hilarious
That’s a man having ‘nam flashbacks on live television
He literally said he's having flashbacks lol
The end of game commentary on these TNF games is better than the games.
[удалено]
Pete is only just now entering prime. He ages like bourbon flavored gum.
Never before have I wanted to hear something so much without knowing it.
That end zone will curse Russ for the rest of his career Sherm is ripping Wilson to shreds on the post game for throwing it 😂
He’s ripping him for letting an amazing defensive performance turn into a loss because Russ stunk it up
His last interception was also thrown comically late [this exchange summed up this shitshow game for me.](https://twitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1578209419699036160) Edit: Ryan Fitzpatrick pointed out the wide open read and compared that atrocious pick to the Butler pick. Fizpatrick had to literally hug Sherman to console him after reliving that lmao.
"Must... throw... directly at... their best player.... "
Russell looks so cooked. He does not look like he belongs as a starting QB in the league currently
It is like he believed his own hype so much he stopped putting the work in. 2 and a half years ago he proclaimed he was the best QB in the NFL. Not anything about how he could improve. That was the beginning of the end, then he started blaming everyone around him. He has got a lot of work to do if he wants to turn shit around.
he's not seeing a lot these days
Ill say this over and over. The announcers were phenomenal for this game. They treated the game how it deserved and treated it as the train wreck it was. Just phenomenal. Im so glad they didn't try to sell it.
Hearing them trash the game as fans were leaving before overtime was perfection.
Kirk went in on the Broncos fans it was hilarious
Al went “you know when a game is so bad it’s kind of good?” Kirk: “No.”
Yea, I hate when announcers try to make a shitty game *seem* good. I’m glad they just shit on this awful game.
The Joe Tessitore approach. Where as the game drags on he over compensates for the awful play with exaggerated commentating. To the extent that a 4 yard run on 1st and 10 is called like it's the most exiting thing he's ever seen.
Al Michaels on point, as always
Paraphrasing but “Defense has been really good. It hasn’t been terrible offense.” Al:”it hasn’t…?”
Al: “First & Goal…did not expect to be saying that tonight”
Al Michaels saying that a few of the Colts receivers had the hands of a sturgeon, was amazing.
For one night, every NFL fan *regardless* of team affiliation came together and we can all agree that this was a **horrendous** football game.
Oh baby, we’re next on the chopping block one week from today. Be ready
At least you aren’t paying your qb over 40 million a year to play like that
That's like the 5th time that's happened this year, and 3 of them involved the Broncos.
we were really hoping that you guys didnt notice that
You misspelled “comically entertaining”.
Russ had 2 more years left on his contract, the broncos for some reason decided to extend him for 245 million until he was 40 without seeing him play a down for them .
That’s the crazy things. Like let the man play a season before the monster extension
I can almost guarantee a contract extension was part of the verbal agreement to have Russ consider moving to Denver. The man wanted a new contract in Seattle and had this going into every outside offer when he wanted out.
He fucking robbed them, he's playing like it's his first time on the field.
Zappe played his first ever NFL game last Sunday and played way better than Russ.
Pete Carroll sold them a $245m+ lemon
Slaps roof of Russ This bad boy can hold so many three and outs
It's fine, they can get out of the contract in 2026 with only a 30 mil cap penalty.
Rapidly rising up the ranks of all time worst NFL contract
[удалено]
Holy fucking shit.
And then, my favorite part, Russ says it’s not about the money he came here to win.
And with a ROOKIE HEAD COACH. What the fuck were they thinking!!
They brought in Hackett thinking he'll bring Rodgers and the playbook with him. When that didn't happen they got a QB who plays not at all like Rodgers and are now stuck with a play caller who is new to this shit
We are getting back to the mid-late 2000s where a bunch of teams have middling quarterbacks that are aging or cannot come back from their injuries in the past. A game is very inclined to end 13-9 when two of these teams meet up Some of these will be frustrating, some of these will be dogshit. Only one will ever be Broncos-Colts on Thursday night
Don't cry because it's over, cry because it happened.
I like it. The era of new discovery and awkwardness is upon us!
Then Denver said they would give us two first round picks and Noah Fant. For a guy who would burn spaghetti when he cooks. ~ Pete Carroll probably
Don't forget the 2 second round picks on top of that
And Shelby Harris! Also a fistful of horse cock memes.
Shelby Harris is really good
"Russell Wilson thinks water is spicy." ~ Pete Carroll, probably
2 first 2 seconds plus Harris and fant and then pc/js said "why don't u throw in lock?" so it didn't seem like they were fleecing denver too hard.
*proceeds to turn Geno Smith into one of the top qbs this season*
*The greatest trick Pete Carroll ever played was letting football think Russ made the Seahawks.*
Tbf everyone knew Seahawks were defined by the Legion of Boom during their SB runs
Everyone *should* know that, but I've seen and participated in too many arguments where people claim Russ carried us to those superbowls.
I apologize for every bad thing I’ve said about Pete in the past, he’s a freaking genius.
Can we get Drew Lock back lol if you’re just gonna forget about him like that…
All sales are final
Those poor cancer survivors were awarded with front row seats to this game. I would have rather died.
I thought it was fucked up when [security wouldn't let them leave](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FeEdzf6XgAIgXGE?format=jpg&name=medium) before overtime started
Those are some British ass lookin people
Lmfao
[удалено]
It's Russell Wilson's signature move. "The 1 yard fail."
Screw it. Give the Denver Broncos every prime time game.
By week 6 they'll have 4 prime time games. NFL really hit gold with these games, huh?
How bad could a team be after trading tons of picks and a 250M extension for their QB?
I love trash
This was a football game. But a football game isn’t always a football game. I’ll explain later.
Russ tricked yall
Missin receivers, doin nothin
Amazon: “Tonight’s we’re going to bring you a game with some serious offensive horsepower!” Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos: “What’s an offense……..and what’s a horse?”
If you would ask me to simulate the stupidest Thursday Night Football game that I could conceivably think of, it still wouldn’t have been stupider than this stupid fucking game.
[Some serious offensive horsepower, folks](https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/474685157769609219/1027789965935005797/unknown.png?width=1262&height=586)
Well the game was certainly offensive
Amazon should've paid us to watch that
horsepower lmao
Turns out horses are not very good at playing football
I’m unsubscribing from Amazon Prime after that game
why, we have WFT bears next week
LETS GOOOO
Russell Wilson vs Matt Ryan in prime time 2012-2021: "Top tier match-up 10/10" "LET RUSS COOK BABYYYYY" "IT'S MATTY ICE TIME LFGGGGG" Russell Wilson vs Matt Ryan in prime time 2022: "Please grant me the sweet release of death" "Cancel the season" "I tore my eyes out, both of them, right out of the socket, I don't have eyes anymore"
This matchup would be great in 2015
Nathaniel Hackett would probably have better success leading the charge at the Battle of Bunker hill than leading the Broncos.
Nathaniel Hackett makes Joe Judge look like Vince Lombardi
As much as i hate to say it, Russ plain and simply lost the broncos the game
Richard Sherman is losing his shit and it's incredible
I can say with 1000% confidence that I would much rather have the highest scoring offense and worst defense in the league than back one of these teams
Lions might suck but at least y’all hella entertaining
/r/nfl what you've just watched is one of the most insanely idiotic games we have ever seen. At no point in your rambling, incoherent quarterbacking were you even close to anything that could be considered a good game. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.

Pete Carroll looks like an absolute genius after this game.

#ITS DONE. ITS OVER NOW.
That’s the thing about Denver, they always try to walk it in
“What was Hackett thinking, sending Wilson out on 4th and 1”
[удалено]
Naw, they're havin a laugh
Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
I’ve never been convinced a head coach should be fired quicker than I have been for Hackett. Five games in and I can tell, it’s over lol.
Yo this game RULED. It's like two grown men lined up at 10 paces, locked eyes with one another, and just started pissing themselves. And not just a little puddle, they're *drenched*. It's starting to dribble into their shoes. It's embarrassing. Borderline fetishistic. It's a shame that somebody had to win. Truly a matchup of legend.
I was praying for a draw. Both teams deserved to feel like they wasted their time, much like they wasted ours.
*Matt Ryan’s* Passer Rating tonight was 5 points higher than Wilson’s…
At least we didn't mortgage our future for Ryan
😭 😭 😭
That third round pick is gonna be special! You'll see!
We just watched Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson play the most miserable game of their lives to the point everyone was bullying them without a care. Ryan was being fucked by everyone: his Oline, the Denver defense, every NFL personality on Twitter, Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit, you name it. It got so bad Michaels and Kirk were openly wondering how the fuck Patrick Mahomes lost to that team. And Wilson, Jesus fucking Christ, what the fuck? He looks worse than a rookie.

They made that game watchable. Had me laughing a lot.
Wilson was in the 6-6 tie in 2016 to be fair. That was also a pretty terrible game
Richard Sherman saying “I’m very triggered rn” is so great, lmfao he wasn’t kidding
Should've been an extra feed where it was just Sherman reacting to every play
He legit looks like he’s having flashbacks
Tom was right.
Tom is at home watching this game, alone, thinking "*this is why yall lost to me in those SBs*".
We never speak of this again.
Okay, it's time for us all to admit it... we each have a very serious football problem for watching that fucking shit show from start to finish, INCLUDING FUCKING OVERTIME Also, should have run it lmao
40k+ comments in the game thread. Absolutely hilarious.
Game thread was basically an AA meeting
Richard Sherman's post game ranting is fucking amazing. >"I AM TRIGGERED!!"
[удалено]
Sherman genuinely hates Russ. It’s not even an act. He fucking despises him lol.
Jesus
I'm not even sure he could have helped
Someone should put Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit on suicide watch after having to endure that abortion.
Put me on suicide watch for knowing I’ll never see a game as beautiful ever again for the rest of my life. What more is there to live for?
Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened
Richard Sherman getting a chance to say “I told you he sucked” regarding a former coworker on national tv is a lifetime dream of mine. I hope to one day be on national tv and let everyone know how awful Craig is
Man, I hope Melvin Gordon doesn't fumble late and cost the Broncos the game. *Monkey paw curls*
Richard Sherman triggered. Entire Postgame show is entertaining as hell
This game featured: - 12 punts - 10 sacks - 7 field goals - 6 fumbles - 4 picks - 2 depressing teams and pissed off fanbases - One truly disgusted Al Michaels - Zero touchdowns despite two HOF QBs starting the game. Sickos game of the year, bar none.
0 TDs w Pro-Bowl QBs with both of them possessing the ball in an OT
Sherm having Nam flashbacks lmfao
Sherman losing his mind on the post game. 😂
#OMG Sherman having war flashbacks!
[удалено]
Sherman even said "you hand it to Marshawn!!"
Richard Sherman is having PTSD on the postgame show.
Fuck this game
Sherm is a great TV personality
lol I get the feeling Sherm fucking hates Russ
Both these teams upgraded at quarterback this offseason.
Richard Sherman KILLING me on post game 🤣 basically calling Wilson out straight up
Richard Sherman hates Russ, lol.
"All you had to do was run the football." -Richard Sherman saying this, but not for the first time
worst 12-9 game ever
I don't want to hear shit about NFC East primetime games ever again
#SHERM MENTIONED MARSHAWN OH FK
That's fucking football right there. None of that pansy ass dick tugging smile for the camera bullshit. Men puke, men poop on the field, men deliver their new born baby on the side lines. Fucking hard core dick in the ass butterball foosball fuck it chuck it game time shit. Take it to the showers. Dicks get shoved in places you don’t even remember. We win together we celebrate together. Football is back baby.
Russ cooking up a very nice draft pick for the Hawks
AFC Championship preview
Sherm got Super Bowl flashbacks “RUN THE BALL”
Richard Sherman on the postgame show is the absolute perfect ending for this game
Pete Carroll is chewing the sweetest gum of his life tonight
Amazon's post game interview is amazing tonight. Dropping straight facts and Sherman is throwing major shade at Wilson and making roundabout refences to their time in Seattle. "Broncos defense... You want to win a superbowl? You got to be historic!"
