While watching a youtube clip of the last drive of the Patriots' first Superbowl Championship (against the Rams), I was struck by Brady's efficiency and intelligence on the drive. Brady didn't make a single questionable throw. Only one pass was slightly off-target, but still caught. He took whatever drive-extending plays he could find. When his protection broke down on a blitz, he threw the ball away quickly and lived on to put the Patriots into field goal range to win their first Superbowl. Vinaiteiri kicks the field goal with like 5 seconds left and Brady is instantly a superstar.
The exciting thing about Russell Wilson is that he has this same ability to get the ball out quickly, accurately and make the right decisions. Russell Wilson isn't an inferior passer than Brady in any significant way. That game-winning bomb to Sidney Rice against the Patriots in 2012 (the "U Mad Bro" game) proved it to me. Brady had his shot and got picked by Sherman. Wilson got his shot and dropped a laser-guided nuclear bomb into Rice's bread basket while Brady pouted on the sideline like a petulant child.
It's a shame that Wilson isn't really a superstar yet, but he will be. In fact, he will be in the Hall of Fame. Wilson is like a combination of Tom Brady and Steve Young, and that should scare the crap out of the NFC West. All these NFCW teams are really good, but only one team has a future HOF quarterback.
