I don't watch a ton of his games, but what I've seen is that he's an excellent scrambler who throws like a midget Joe Flacco, aka 3-5 50/50 jump balls a game. That shyt drives me crazy as a fan,but whatever.

Hand off, hand off, designed roll out, deep out lobs. Wash and repeat. Maybe when he gets a few more seasons under his belt they will open up the playbook for him, but I find his scrambling is his only plus trait.

Sorry. The way Wilson and Seahawk stans talk about other young QBs...I put it ALL on him because he's the one who threw the pass. If it was RG3, Luck, Kaep, Cam who threw that pass they would have been destroyed. Pretty sure Kaep threw a pick in the SB to end the game on a blatant PI and was destroyed on here.
The int was his fault. Im not making excuses. He was late and threw in front of the wr. But a qb is not going to audible that play was my point.

A lot of his plays are improvised, a lot of his completions are from broken routes, I gotta admit, the brotha is one sneaky QB and he's really good at finding that receiver open at the last minute. He's smart too, knows when to slide/get out of bounds and avoid that big hit. Having defenses focus so much on Lynch is a BIG plus for him too.

This is why I laugh at his stans shytting on other QBs. He can scramble his ass OFF and that's where he makes plays. Ask him to sit in the pocket and he's far less effective. He's a great jumball thrower, and that IMO speaks to how underrated his receivers are. He's young, though so he can fix his flaws but the flaws are apparent. Some folk get caught up in the Ws. Ws are easy when you have a top D and the best RB in the league. Best kicker in the league and huge homefield advantage. Not to mention, the offense is built to his strength. His receivers are excellent at freelancing since he's always scrambling. The designed rollouts are to get him out of the pocket since that's where he does his damage. Good player. Severely overrated.

I think he'll improve with time, though. But teams will shut that rollout crap down eventually. Lynch is the real threat of that offense.

I'll just leave this here and if you disagree just know that you are disagreeing with pure factual information. Russ has ten wins more than his expected QB win total over the course of his career and that can be attributed to his defense. He has played above-average football, not taking that away from him but all of this "up there up with the greats" talk got out of hand.

two superbowl appearance in his first three years is no accident.

the guy will go into the hof when its all said and done
He is very elusive, but the reason Seattle is this good is because of Beast Mode and the defense.

:rudy: Don't play stupid. Take a look around these Wilson threads and you will see people in here saying he's a top 5 QB, up there with Rodgers, up there with Brady (who was supposedly :flabbynsick: by most people's accounts back in October).

Russ has a ways to go before reaching that company.

How many QBs are better than Russell right now?
