Russell Wilson slammed in devastating 'atrocity' rant over NFL star's season

Russell Wilson has been slammed as a 'devastating atrocity' after performing poorly since his big trade from the Seattle Seahawks this off-season. Thee 33-year-old quarterback had reportedly wanted out of Seattle after 10 years with the Seahawks, as he and head coach Pete Carroll had a difference in philosophies.

Wilson had been hugely successful with the Seahawks, with no other quarterback in NFL history winning more games than he had in his first 10 seasons (112, tied with Peyton Manning).

However, he was unhappy with his situation and wanted to play in a more pass-heavy offensive system, and would be granted that opportunity when Seattle accepted a trade from the Denver Broncos, joining new head coach Nathaniel Hackett - Aaron Rodgers' former offensive coordinator.
