To me last nights game was under the worst possible circumstances (unless the 49ers were on the East Coast and we had to travel to them). We had a chance in the first half to grab a hold of that game and take control.
I don't care what folks say about Russell, those passes were right on the money. He can't catch them for the receivers. The INT was a poor throw, bottom line, but that stuff happens.
The thing to me is that Russell didn't lose confidence even on the last three and out. He is a leader. He is tenacious.
Furthermore, I see folks calling us fanboys if we support Wilson. That we are not willing to hear criticism. The fact is, our coaching staff has decided to go with a rookie. If our fanbase focuses on the negatives with our rookie QB, and we all just have a hate fest on him, then we take a chance on helping to create a hostile work environment for him.
I like Matt Flynn. If he were starting I would support him. Eventually he may get a chance due to injury, anyway, and I will gladly support him.
I like both of our QB's. I feel we could have a future with either of them. Honestly, with TJack, I didn't feel like we had a future with him. When you get to that point with a player it is just better to move on.
Go Hawks!!
