I keep having visions of him in a Washington Commanders uniform

Russ can just go out ignominiously from planting his foot wrong on that garbage-rear end field.

They better get Mongo in this year to the Hall of Fame. I hope he can hang on long enough to get some enjoyment out of it. The last update I saw from his ALS battle was a few months ago.

That sucks.

I think a lot more people know him from his time in WCW these days, I had no idea he was a good football player (x2 pro bowler, x5 all pro). He was sort of infamous as a member of the Four Horsemen, as Dave Meltzer would go out of his way to make fun of his wrestling ability every chance he could.

Even with a 5-6% chance of making the playoffs it's dumb not to play Wilson. He's lost a step from his prime but he's not outright bad, just average, he's doing a 3-1 TD:INT ratio at this point. He should at least play until they are mathematically eliminated, the minimum standard, and they could easily win out with him. I can only see that this is Payton bringing the shiv out early because he doesn't like Wilson. Financially, it's not like it's clear that Wilson will pass a physical now, and the idea they will have a Seahawks-style "rebuild but not" year coming up is not realistic. This isn't the 49ers, they don't have the all-around talent to just slot in whatever QB and make him look like a first ballot guy.

I can only imagine that Wilson pisses Payton off on the reg, especially if threatening to sit him after the bye was true. But lol if this is all because Wilson is not delivering the top #5 QB performance they wanted. You signed the contract guys.

YouTube TV is fine, the real issue is that football is the only thing on broadcast TV that makes any loving money and in 2024 is still mostly not in 4K
