About Russell Wilson

[rubyweapon7]

As a Packers fan, I will say that Russell Wilson deserves more credit than he gets from the media. He is much better than just a game manager. He has proven that but yet most only think about the defense and Lynch. The guy can throw in and out of the pocket; he can also run really well if needed. I think the best thing about him is his maturity for a young QB.

Instead of arguing with the Game Manger label. Im just waiting for RW to redefine it.

Cant wait for the full title in 20 years. "Hall of Fame, Multiple Super Bowl winning, Elite Game Manger, Russell Wilson"

How many times did the Packers even lay a hand on him? I like the way the offense worked in that game. He got rid of the ball quickly and didn't have a lot of his wild scrambling. I like the scrambling, but he didn't really need to the way things were going. That little run right up the middle for the first down was awesome. I think he will be the best read-option qb in the league this year. That will not be the only thing he will be but he really can hand it, run it or pass it and do so intelligently. We are taking advantage of his smarts. Thanks for the post.

Proof that there are fans of other teams that actually get it. Passing for 400 yards a game and 5K a season is for winning fantasy leagues. Passing for 200 yards with 2 TDs and no INTs while rushing for 200 yards is for winning championships. Good post.

Thanks Ruby.
A question for you as a packer fan.. Percy says that Wilson reminds him of Favre. Is it his poise, his play making, his vocal cadence? What do you think?

Hey, bigD,

Mom says dinner is at 4:00, and you better fill the gas tank in the car.

RW 's read option has more options to defend.

A lot of folks are coming around to that same conclusion, actually.

If you watched a ton of these games so far. Its pretty telling that this team is blessed with a great QB. I've seen too many QBs making some boneheaded decisions.

Correct.

He manages to win, that's the only thing that matters.

I would say all of the above to be honest with you.
