Debrand Galaxy s7

I want to get all of the bloatware, crap-ware, and that stupid Verizon splash screen when it boots. I am told I can do this by reinstalling the firmware. The problem? I don't know which one to use. I think this one https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/125013/G935VVRU4BQA2_G935VVZW4BQA2_VZW/ because I have a Verizon phone and I don't want to break it however I am worried that it is just going to install all the crap again. This made me think I should install an unknown one that perhaps goes for all the unlocked phones but I don't know which one it is. Here's the website. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G935F/

I would recommend asking this on XDA, they will give MUCH better answers.
