Seahawks losses with Russ at QB..amazing

[sumos2005]

Starting record 22 and 7

The myth that with Russ playing QB, you are in every game until the last second (every loss within a score) is NOT a myth..it is a fact

The 7 games the hawks have lost with Russ at the helm..2013 6 points, 2012, Miami 3 pts on (last second FG,) Detroit 4 pts on a( last minute Detroit TD), San Fran 7 points, St Louis 6 points, Arizona 4 pts, Atlanta 2 pts (last second field goal).

Find any other QB in the last 2 years that have done that...NONE

EXTRA TIDBIT

Even at Wisconsin his 1 year

Lost to Michigan State by 6 on a hail Mary
Lost to Ohio State by 4 on a hail Mary
Lost to Oregon Rose Bowl by 7 time ran out as Russell led a 90 yard drive..

 

[FlyingGreg]

He is too short.

 

[marymoorhawk]

I still have to pinch myself sometimes when I think about this guy. Doesn't seem real.

 

[CornerHawk]

If I am not mistaken he has not lost a game by more that a 7 points since October of 2010. I think that was midway through his last season at nc state.

 

[HawkWow]

There should be an asterisk on his early losses as a Hawk. Those should go on Pete and Bevell for not letting him work his leprechaun-ish magic earlier.

 

[The Outfield]

Impressive. I wouldn't ask for any other QB. Russell is just the man.

Yeah totally. THey shoulda let him indulge in his puckish majix.
The OP is an amazing stat.

He's actually 21-7 as a starter (unless your counting the Vikings game already as a win) 12-6- 2012, 9-1- 2013.

But the point remains. I think it's an unbelievable stats - 75% winning %. 28 games in and no double digit losses and undefeated at home. Absolutely unbelievable.
He has 7 4th QTR comebacks and 9- game winning drives. (32% of career starts)

Whereas if you look at Kaepernick He's 13-6 (including playoffs)- 68%- winning %, He's been blown-out 3 of his 19 career starts and has 3 comeback and 3 game winning drives. (16% of career starts)

There was another post on here recently that says he is only two wins away from tieing Rothlesburgers record of 22 wins for first 2 seasons. Russell Wilson could be the fifth element!

God I love this. And where are the pundits that felt Kaep was better than RW and likely to take his team further? There should be a sports watch group that holds such people, like Dilfer, accountable for their sensationalism.

And Kaepernick went to a Superbowl team, whereas Wilson went to a struggling team. Wilson is clearly on a whole other level above Kaep--I think he's in the highest eshelon of qb in the NFL. His upside is still being defined.

 

[Diezel Dawg]

The guy is an amazing football player/quarterback. You can.never tell if he gets rattled because he never changes emotion

 

[HawkFan72]

This team has not lost by more than 7 points in almost 2 years.

Whoever said Carroll's system and personality would not succeed in the NFL is an idiot.

And Russell Wilson is amazing.

 

[ZornwasaleftY]

:2:

He's an alien. It's just the way it is.

 

[telerion]

Meh. Need more data to be statistically significant. Could be spurious.

Just kidding (though I wouldn't mind if the pattern continues).

 

[dunceface]

wow. Just wow.

 

[warden]

The streak of not losing by more then a TD for the Seahawks started before Wilson was with the team. That streak started Nov 6th 2011. 35 games and counting. These close victories is a team award not an individual award

 

[BASF]

What I find more impressive within those stats is that the defense lost fourth quarter leads in all but two of the Wisconsin and Seattle losses. Pairing this young man with a defense that can close games out is all he needs to be a champion.

 

[tom sawyer]

We only had to wait 36 years for a QB of this magnitude.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

It's clear that if Smell Diaper hates your draft pick, he'll be a great NFL player.
