Starkey & Mueller

Former Broncos and current Fox NFL analyst Mark Schlereth joined the show. Mark has notably been a ‘hater’ of Russell Wilson, so he hopped on to chat about what he saw last night. He said it’s no personal agenda, he just doesn’t care for how he has played the last few years. He made note that fans were booing him in the 1st quarter last night. Mark got into some more of what he saw last night and where he still feels his critiques of Wilson are warranted. He used the term ‘toxic positivity’ when describing Wilson and thinks it could wear on the organization over time, unless Russ has truly changed his mentality. Mark labeled Wilson’s time in Denver as ‘atrocious.’ He said sometimes players have to accept the fact that they aren’t as good as some parts of their game as they used to be. Mark gave Wilson his flowers and also credited the coaching staff a ton for how last night looked.
