I saw a Seahawk fan describe Wilson as "A walking brand". Everything he says and does feels so calculated, unauthentic, and scripted. He's not a bad person, by any means, he just seems to be fake, corny, and attention seeking while acting like he's not. 

I don't personally hate Rus, I just think he has a large Ego, pretends that he doesn't, and isn't as good as he thinks he is. He's also a little bit weird and robotic. 

From the day he was drafted, its like his interview answers are all the "good" answers from a career mode in a football video game.  He wanted to put out this image where he said all the right things, but it just came off as inhuman and obviously fake.

 i'm just curious to hear where he places the blame fir the failure there. hopefully he's realizing that he's not as special as he thought.

I don't think he will outwardly say anything though. If anything, he will say all the right things to the media, take personal responsibility, then something in the offseason will happen and it will leak "from someone in Russ' Camp" that Russ was livid and hated ____ and it was all _____'s fault.

I always thought Wilson was one of the luckiest QBs in the history of the NFL. It seems like every time he needed to make a play he would pull a horseshoe out of his anus and make the exact play they needed. Happened so many times over the years. 

My thoughts - his luck has finally run out. 

Same. Luckiest MF I ever saw. 
I never wanted a QB like that, I only envied his luck.

A little update...

Wilson had characterized the exchange as Purcell saying something like "let's go". Apparently that wasn't true.

And seriously, what kind of goofball says this sort of thing at a time like that anyway?

Dude's ego is off the charts.

Funny that the same people here pooing on Wilson would’ve loved to have him on our side when his Hawks basically owned us… 

What a big mistake that would have been if the Panthers had sold the farm to obtain Russell Wilson, a QB whose career is heading down hill.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
