Brady actually was for his first couple years lol

did you even watch the superbowl against the rams?

difference is though he put together a game winning drive to get in FG range against a heavily favored team
this.

OP conveniently forgetting how pass-happy the rules are now. Typical low IQ seahawks fan:russ:

Comparing 2001-2003 to 2012-2014 like they're the same era

So you argue they have comparable stats which would in turn make Brady better because he started in a different era. Fair

However Wilsons stats are clearly better than Brady's so if you normalize for difference in Era at best its a wash between the two.

Unlike Brady though, Wilson has actually finished a season in his first 3 years with a top 5 QBR.

The rule changes started in 2004. Before 2004, the CBs could beat up WRs and do whatever they hell they wanted.

If you threw for 30 TDs back then, it was amazing. Favre threw 32 TDs in 2003 with a broken thumb. Brady in 2002 threw for 28 TDs

Yeah Tom was considered a game manager in the early part of his career just like Rothlisberger was too. But he has evolved and he can now beat you with his arm alone if you sleep on him. No matter what he was considered in the beginning he is still one of the best to ever to it.

People love to say that the Seahawks don't win because of Russell, but because of the factors around him, but that severely discredits his ability to make plays when he needs to, to stay in the game regardless of the atmosphere, and to amplify the impact of said factors that surround him.

Russell has a great team to back him, but that team, and the city, and the fans, look to him as a leader for a reason. GOAT Black QB playing with the GOAT defense in all of the GOAT games.

Go Hawks.
while you are absolutely correct, you can only hope that Russ ascends to the same heights as Brady. Best of A.Luck in 2 weeks...............:beli:

Don't even know why I'm arguing with this autistic ass nikka but whatever.
Avg. QBR in Brady's first 3 years was around 79
Avg. QBR in Wilson's first 3 years was around 87

Brady was 7 point higher than average
Wilson was 11.6 points higher than average
