Okay, and now imagine trading Russ for multiple 1st rounders & watch him have the same issues he has here on another team.
Agreed.
I do not believe Wilson has the ability to lead a team to the Super Bowl if it isn’t absolutely stacked.
Wilson, like it or not, does not shred defenses with his passing.
After the Patriots Super Bowl, Seattle has gotten worse in these areas:
OL, DL, DB, and RB.
Without these position groups playing as well, Wilson cannot lead the team as well as he could.
If Seattle is stacked in these areas, yes, he could but the problem isn’t just Wilson, it’s just bad management.
Failed drafts ultimately have been the downfall of Seattle.
Do I believe Wilson has evolved into a better pocket passer? Yes and no.
Yes because he’s a vet QB that has seen all defensive game plans by now but because the offensive line and his run game isn’t elite anymore, teams don’t respect Seattle’s run game and they know the offense lives and dies with Wilson.
If you take the 2021 Wilson and put him on the 2012 Seahawks, Seattle could still win the Super Bowl.
If you take the 2012 Wilson and put him on the 2021 Seahawks, Seattle definitely wouldn’t win.
Bottom line, Wilson is only as good as the pieces around him.
The Seahawks has to be loaded for Wilson to win a Super Bowl.
If Wilson is to win a Super Bowl with another team, that team needs to absolutely be already loaded everywhere but QB. And then Wilson can take them over the top.
