You should just get used to Russ playing no matter how good or bad he smells.
Pete wont pull him.
Because he still gives the team the best chance at winning. These people calling for Geno are delusional.
I just think people are VERY reactionary... the truth is we DON"T know what's happening between Pete and Russ. Thats just a fact. The board is split some think it's on Russ some think it's on Carroll. Maybe it's on both. all of it is speculation and I'm not saying it's bad to speculate because it's not, it's just that that's what it is.
I think there could be some strife in the locker room and there might even be some disagreement between Russ and Carroll and even Waldron, but everything is weird right now because the team is on a skid. everybody is feeling down. This team REALLY needs a win badly.
My gut feeling on it is when you have a franchise QB coming off of injury he needs a chance to get back into rhythm. I'm unsure how Pete and Waldron might be dealing with the read issues and or any ego, issues and I don't think it's to Wilson's advantage not to play well because he is not happy. It's not like any sort of trade is going to happen now.
I don't see what advantage Carroll would have pulling Russ. From Carrolls perspective, he needs to get Wilson playing well and the only way to do that is to play him. I don't think the injury at this point is going to be a huge factor if he was going to pull Wilson to let the finger heal, he should have done it the first couple of games vs GB and AZ .
