RW 9-0 vs SB winning QB's

That is an amazing stat. Includes a 2-0 record against Rodgers.

I kept screaming this in my car a couple days ago when someone on ESPN was listing the weak QB's that Russell beat the last 6 weeks. How can these idiots keep a job?

Who cares about RW on the east coast?
That's how they keep their jobs.

But but.. Lynch and the defense carried him!!

- Every comment section that runs this stat

Did you see the stat where Russell is 29th in Air Yard Percentage this season? There was an idiot in the DenialZone that tried to present it as proof that Wilson was mediocre, except that Wilson was 8th and 13th in that stat the last 2 seasons, plus Josh McCown, Drew Stanton, Brian Hoyer, and Ryan Fitzpatrick were all in the top 10 this year.

I love how people around the country act like he only wins because of the Defense. Like he has nothing to do with the team winning :roll:

Or, how if a team slows down Lynch, that they actually think Wilson can't beat them thru the air AND in the pocket. Ask the Panthers how RW does w/out Lynch putting up big numbers.

My man satchel is better at picking games then these idiots, and clowns like Pete "Pissquick" Prisco are not qualified to write for their old high school newspaper much less any sports outlet. They lead with their biases, and that's why they are usually wrong.

The last time Prickso picked against the Packers was week 1. He picked them to go 15-1. He's working on an 0-7 streak against the spread for the Seahawks. Anyone else noticed he picked the Ryan Lindley-led Cardinals to win by 13 over Carolina on the road, and picked Seattle to only beat Carolina by 3 at home? He's such a biased ***hat.

Wilson isn't mediocre. However, he statistically isn't as good as Rodgers. Here's the thing. Could Wilson beat Rodgers in Seattle if Rodgers was playing for the Seahawks. Remember this is a team game, and while Wilson is doing very well I don't think it means he's better than Rodgers, Brady, and Manning(historically not just this year) just because the Seahawks beat them. Remember the bucs D that won the superbowl with brad Johnson. Now I'm not saying Wilson is Brad Johnson. What I'm saying is that football is a team game, and if you have a great D and one of the best rushing attacks ever you have a lot better shot at winning.

Non-Seahawks fans like to hide behind the assumption that because we don't just put our entire offense on Wilson's shoulders, he's incapable of carrying it.

Faulty logic for the win. LOVE IT. Whatever helps you sleep at night, cheeseheads!

Nobody said he's better... But the thing is the defense was pretty damn good in 2011 and we had Marshawn back then as well. We went 7-9. Give the man some credit for being a big improvement and not hurting his team. Also, part of the reason the rushing attack is so good is due in large part to Russell Wilson's scrambling ability. 800+ yards rushing as a QB

Truth. Rodgers is ahead of Wilson in quite a few stats. Not all, such as best playoff passer rating, but most. Here's the thing, though. He's not only a good quarterback, but a league-average running back in addition to that. So not only do you have to contend with the quarterback with the highest ever playoff passer rating, you also have to account for the league's #15 overall running back. And that doesn't even account for Marshawn Lynch, to say nothing of the defense. All with a bunch of UDFA receivers.

Being an engineer, the phrase we use in the aerospace industry is... "Torture the data until it confesses."

Let's break it down for Wilson:

Eli Manning: 2-0 (1 home, 1 away)
Peyton Manning : 2-0 (neutral, home)
Tom Brady: 1-0 (home)
Drew Brees: 2-0 (home)
Aaron Rodgers: 2-0 (home)

Tota: 9-0

And now for Kaepernick:

Eli Manning: 1-0 (away)
Peyton Manning: 0-1 (away)
Tom Brady: 1-0 (away)
Drew Brees: 2-1 (away)
Aaron Rodgers: 3-0 (2 home, 1 away)
Joe Flacco: 0-1 (neutral)

Total: 7-3

Wilson has played every game but one at home/neutral.

Kaepernick has played every game but one away/neutral.

Considering how strong HFA is for Seattle and their tight margins of victory against Brady and Rodgers the first time, I'm pretty sure Wilson wouldn't be undefeated in this area had the locations been flipped.

Well Wilson isn't ready to carry the offense completely on his shoulders just yet.

San Diego, Dallas games allude to that, or at least demonstrate that the Seahawks are best suited to a higher run/pass ratio.

No shame in that, he's still a young buck in this league. There are not many truly successful high volume passers in the NFL. Maybe 3-4 tops.

There are none against our defense. Russell Wilson is the very last QB I would want our defense to face. Not only does not he not force throws, he is clutch in the 4th Quarter and is the best dual threat in the league. Our defense has run roughshod over Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Tom Brady. Wilson is the only QB who could really strike fear in our defense. Fortunately, we don't have to worry about that because he plays for us.
