Never did understand some of the hate of Wilson on here. Where could the Badgers be if he was QBing them this year? They could very easily be #1 or 2 in the BCS.
He was a renta QB for a year and pissed his pants in the rose bowl. Why do we need to love?

Not sure if this stat is correct but NO has the best away record in the NFL since 2009, if so perception is different from reality.
Really the only thing I have against Russell Wilson is the fact that he is in the NFC. I sure wish someone like the Browns would have taken him last year where the Pack would only have to worry about facing him every 4 years or so.
I thought he'd be a starting caliber QB in the NFL someday but did not think he'd be exceptional, especially this quickly. Make no mistake though, he is exceptional. The thing that separates him from many other scrambling QB types is his extreme quickness, throwing accuracy, and intelligence.
He can make accurate throws from almost any sort of contorted position. He doesn't take many head on shots from defenders when he scrambles as he is quick enough to avoid a full on collision. Teams try to keep him in the pocket, but he's just so quick and smart that he finds a way to get out of there if he thinks he needs to.
When you play against Wilson, he is a 60 minute QB. If he has a rough start to a game, he almost always finishes it strong and is capable of making big plays if a defense decides to let up for even a moment which most defenses tend to do in the NFL.
You combine Wilson and Lynch with that fantastic defense and that is one heck of a tough team to beat, particularly in Seattle. Probably the only team that matches up decently with them right now is San Fran, and I'm not sure they're good enough to beat them in Seattle. We'll find out soon enough.
They lost a game in Seattle. I don't care what BSPN, Peter King or any of the clowns say.
Yes, he is definitely one of the protected ones.
So if SEA did lose that game, it changes their whole complexion at home?
If the Packers don't make the playoffs, I am pulling for the Sea-kocks to win it all...not that I like Cheaty Petey, or Golden Taint, but for the simple fact it will drive every Whiner fan I work with absolutely bat-$hit angry.
The Seahags are a good squad, no doubt about it, but their window is pretty small IMO. They gave a few top picks for Harvin and paid him alot of $$$. They're not paying Wilson, Sherman, Browner, etc. anywhere near the type of $$$ they would be commanding, and their contracts are up within the next couple of years. Once, they pay those players the market rate, in the next year or two, we'll see how they are.
Here is a good breakdown, Jon Ryan is making more than Wilson and Sherman combined.
Anybody else wish we still had Breno as an option at RT?

Nope, I wish Bulaga didn't get hurt though.
