That's always been the barometer for how you judge elite QBs. Just because you find a great QB as useful as a backup long snapper doesn't mean that's how the rest of us who watch football view them. Elite QBs are judged by their statistical performance in the regular season. You get judged on your playoff win loss record when you've already established yourself in the league
so basically what youre saying even if you have an efficient offense and are scoring a ton of points, you cant be an elite qb because you dont pass enough and hence dont have the volume :dead:

being a good defensive team actually prevents the qb to be good in this theory, right ? :heh:

and even with that nonsense, statistically, I don think you realize how good two years russ wilson has had

52 tds, 19 ints. playing with no #1 WR in a division that includes 49ers, arizona and stl defenses (as opposed to say titans, jags) is extremely good

its one of the best 2-year qb start of careers of last decade statistically. literally the only thing it lacks is volume lack of yards because of fewer attempts.

Uncertain grounds
kaep and wilson in general deserve more props for playing in the nfc west. that deflates some volume stats by default.

im convinced that ppl calling wilson "mediocre", a "product of the system" or a "game manager" really just watch highlights or have seen a game or two of him. dude very rarely makes a bad decision at all, makes great reads, knows when to run and can do so effectively and not recklessly...and believe it or not...there really isnt a throw he cant make. he is accurate as hell on deep passes, can thread the needle and can put touch on passes too. im not a fan of ranking top 5 or 10s or whatever but he has proven to be a winner, proven to be able to win super bowls and proven to come through in the clutch. as a team for long term projections, there may be an argument for him being taken top 3. peyton/tom/brees dont have nearly as many years left as him and he's at the very least right there with luck/cam/kap. rodgers to me would be the clear 1

as a 3rd round pick he came out, lead and commanded a team. was an "ice the kicker" away from a nfc championship/possible superbowl-as a fukking rookie.
went and won the damn super bowl his soph year, HANDIDLY. embarrassing a first ballot hof'er.
all ya'll can let ya guard down and admit you'd be ok w/him at the helm of your squad. he gaining experience and maturing to levels that will be scary.
shooting for 70% completions this year. BALLIN out the past few weeks. he and the whole squad is getting better w/time.
it's a good damn time to be a hawk fan :obama:

I almost agree with u but he didn't embarrass anybody in the superbowl

Word? I don't really follow them so I won't act like I know what their offensive gameplan is gonna be this year. Didn't they lose a passing weapon or two?

We lost Golden Tate who is a fighter but :yeshrug: The emergence of Kearse, Baldwin, Luke Wilson, Christine Michael(good out the backfield) and a healthy Percy and Zack Miller is more then sufficient. Looking at that group of guys there isn't a clear cut #1 option in the traditional sense but the thing about Russ is that he spreads the ball around so well, Baldwin and Kearse might show out for a couple of games while the others are waiting for their opportunities. Pete Carroll really just brought USC swagger, schemes and depth minded roster set-up to the NFL.
