This is actually kind of encouraging.

Next Level

7. Drew Brees
8. Tony Romo
9. Matt Ryan
10. Russell Wilson


Wilson's receivers aren't winning one-on-one battles. Jermaine Kearse and Doug Baldwin only give Wilson tight windows to throw to, and Wilson often leaves the pocket when someone doesn't break free. There were a surprising amount of miscommunication and throws against Oakland where the intended receiver wasn't even clear. His pass protection was poor, and his best plays were screens. The Seahawks' line is banged up and the return of tight end Zach Miller will help immeasurably.

To put it another way: The Seahawks defense essentially handed Wilson 20 free points Sunday. And yet the Raiders still kept the game competitive in Seattle.

Hands up who's taking Romo over Russ?

Isn't it sad when the return of a tight end is more anticipated than that of a tackle or center in terms of shoring up our O-line.
