Wilson also shattered his career high for TD%. His previous career high was 7% in 2015. This season, he finished with 8.2% TDs.

Ominous career highs entering the playoffs: most sacks of his career (51) and highest sack rate of his career (11%). The previous career worsts for Wilson and the offensive line were 45 sacks allowed and a 9.8% sack rate.

So how long after he is gone do we wait to retire his number?

That pass late in the 4th was one of my favorites this entire season.

Was a thing of beauty. Yeah, he still struggles with the over-the-middle mid-distance from the pocket but he's one of the very best ALL TIME when it comes to passing after a few steps to the right or left. Remarkable arm strength to do that with such accuracy.

When he's given a bit of room to breathe out there and has a strong running game to lead the offense with, the young man can flat out play.

GO RUSS!!!!

This TD also broke the Seahawks franchise record.

This is actually what I expected from him PENDING that we returned to being a bully running team. This could not happen if we were a passing team. Kudos to Pete for finally seeing it again after 2 and a half years of trying to be something that doesn't fit.

No QB has more wins through seven seasons than Russsll Wilson. Very impressive.

Unfortunately, Tom Brady went 16-0 in his eight season, so it’s going to take 11 wins next year to match Brady.

Well 11 wins after this year would be a slight trend upward, this was a rebuild year and we should push hard next year for divison title.

Lots of areas where they can get better. Seems reasonable.

A one game improvement over a rebuild year? Yeah, that sounds reasonable as hell. I mean, if 10-6 is a rebuilding year, this team is already set up well for the future. And year two without Cable/Bevell mucking up the offense should put them well into one of the better seasons this team's seen, maybe even the best offensive output in team history. And with Carroll as a defensive minded coach, I'm not too worried about this "scrub" defense trying to live up to LOB standards. They don't even have to be particularly special to be good, and good enough to win a whole bunch of games next year.

Can we start speaking honestly around here? Pretending as if we simply chose a pass first offense, when really we never had the proper O-line to PROTECT Wilson is such a stubborn narrative. Please stop talking about our switch to the run game without at least acknowledging the difference in protection. When Fluker or Sweezy are out the difference is night and day

Some of you are too stubborn. Now instead of (unfairly) critiquing Wilson, the new narrative is that the running game and/or Schotty deserves most of the credit. We can critique Wilson’s shortcomings. Fine, but at least stop making things up that the run game, and not the lack of protection is the main difference. Some of you talk as if the protection and everything was fine and Wilson simply couldn’t get it done

Getting a new OC, who really understands the run game and was a capable of committing to it, was a huge factor.

Carroll’s balanced offensive philosophy has never change. What has changed is the person capable of executing that vision.

Getting an Oline coach who is not the worst coach in the NFL yet the run game coordinator and assistant head coach. Pete carrying that baggage around was costly.

YES - thank you Front Office and Pete for bringing Schotty on board.

It has transformed this team...

Solari has been huge.

The offensive line played terribly today, due to injuries, but the commitment to the run game and play action allowed them to pull it out.

Bevell had little understanding of the run game. That is why a run game coordinator was needed. The worst possible outcome would have been keeping Bevell, leading to even more finesse football.

I’m very grateful for both Schottenheimer and Solari. Maybe one day you will get there. :2thumbs:
