Introducing the Worst NFL Starter You’ve Probably Never Heard of
Monday, September 15th, 2008
This is Brian Russell. He’s the starting free safety for the Seattle Seahawks. He is fucking terrible.
If you’d like to know why the Seahawks have four Pro Bowl starters on defense but still give up 30+ points to the Bills and 49ers, Brian Russell is your answer.
If you’re wondering how J.T. O’Sullivan can get sacked 8 times, but still throw for 321 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions: Brian Russell.
Did you see that Isaac Bruce, who is something like 47 years old, got 153 yards on only 4 catches? There’s a secret ingredient to that formula, and his name is Brian Russell.
How does he do it? How can one weak link in the defense fuck the team over so hard?
