You could see them running some of the stuff Bevell and Schotty ran to get Russ on track early... the quick screens to the flats for example. But LA, after the first 3 or 4 were ready for it. And the PA stuff was pulled from Russ's book as well. Also didn't work but for once or twice.
He just can't run a traditional offense. He even still struggles to adjust protections. He got clobbered a few times for keeping with a play that was doomed to fail given the pressure that was obviously coming. But what did he do? Just hiked the ball and let free defenders come running right at him.
All too familiar. So nice to watch it from a distance and no longer be effected by it.
And that's why I've hated Wilson for so long.
Because .NET destroyed Kaepernick with a vengeance during his "good years", not realizing that they had a slightly better version of him (or at least had the defense that gave the opposing QB more problems......Kap just never ever looked good against Seattle), and many on here and throughout thought Wilson was the main reason the Hawks beat the Niners, LOL.
Even week 2 this year, Denver held the 49er offense to 10 points. Of course Wilson knows how to win those games despite one of his worst statistical games of all time.
Geno Smith didn't have the luxury this year of having a defense hold the Niners to the standard under 20, nor play them late enough in the season when injuries would hurt them.
He might get this chance later on.
Wilson is the luckiest player in the league the last decade and it isn't close.....no rings if it weren't for that 4th and 7 free play with game clock expired, Sherman with the tip, the NFCC played in SF if it weren't for the shit call on Ahmad Brooks sacking Drew Brees, and whomever that Packer was that coughed up the onside kick. Hell, the SB might've been a game if Denver didn't die on the first snap.
I respected the hell out of that Seahawks 52 all those years.......the 53rd guy always bothered me.
LUCKY.
