Watching the Tape: Initial Thoughts on Wilson

Hello all,

In the spirit of getting back into the swing of things, I am going to watch tape of the Seattle Seahawks offense to get an idea on Russell Wilson and his general playstyle, strengths, weaknesses, pre-snap/post-snap adjustments, mobility, tendencies, etc. While I am doing this, I will document everything that I do in preparation for watching film on someone that way you guys can get an idea on how a coach at the level I was at approaches the tape. I have purchased the ‘international’ version of the All-22 film as a workaround to be able to watch the coaches film (Thanks NordVPN). This is important, because I need to be able to see the full picture of the play from start to finish. We need to be able to see everything from the safeties to the RB. Now that I have obtained this, I will go in depth into how this process works for a single player evaluation.

2022 Broncos Offseason Road Map, Reoriented

On Februrary 8, I wrote this inside my annual Broncos offseason road map:

I will not consider any acquisition of a quarterback under contract with another team (looking at you, rumors of Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson) as realistic unless and until enough compelling evidence emerges otherwise.

Exactly one month later…yeah, I’ll take “Comments I’m Happy That Aged Terribly” for $400, Alex.

Suffice to say, trading for Russell Wilson is a massive change in direction for the Broncos and their 2022 plans, in a very positive direction. Finally, I can banish what has been at the top of the road map in some form in regularity, just like Brandon Perna wants to banish the carousel graphic:

1. Fix the quarterback position

That strikethrough text feels really good to see.

Nonetheless, there are still important goals remaining to achieve to fully get the Broncos to the best competitor they can be–and that is as a Super Bowl competitor.
