Geno only needs 150 passing yards to...

[chris98251]

Interesting situation, the team's once back up QB has had a better season than it's former starter and is in position to pass him and set a new yardage record causing us to all wonder if we hadn't developed a mind set about RW and exactly how good he actually was. To be within 150 yards of Mr. Eliminated after 16 games points out just how good his season has been.

Had to fix it for you !

 

[jammerhawk]

That’s perfect!!!

I endorse this change

 

[Lords of Scythia]

I hate the 17th game too. Walker could get to the 1K, but not after 16 games. If he'd started from the beginning of the season he woulda obliterated it.

And he did it without tons of deep shots, taking his checkdowns, actually running the plays being called, and basically being a team player.

With less game winning drives, touchdowns, efficiency, and an equally high sack percentage.

 

[Scorpion05]

The NFL doesn't distinguish records between 14 and 16 game seasons, so 17 wont matter either. Season record is the season record.

and besides that, Russ had the LOB in 2016, a top 3 defense actually getting him the ball back. Geno has whatever this s-show is, letting teams go on long drives.

Russ still put up similar yards without the LOB in 2020. But with more touchdowns. 16 games vs 17 games is still much different and you would admit it if the roles were reversed with Russ.

Haters gonna hate.

 

[onanygivensunday]

Well he is the Hero playing Team ball this year and not Hero Ball, better percentage, yards, less turnovers less sacks I would bet also as well as less 3 and outs.

... fewer.

We not finna act like Russell wasn't dead nice when he was a Seahawk. Well, some of y'all are but it's plumb GOOFY. I swear sometimes I wonder what it REALLY is that has y'all acting like this about Russell? It can't be just because he's "corny" and religious. Or the little "joining a whole new team" platitudes/cookie cutter remarks he made after the trade. Shits kinda tired tho.

 

[pittpnthrs]

Come on Pitt, nobody actually thinks they are going to the SB. But there also is nothing wrong with enjoying a win, and a possible playoff birth.

I agree with you Soul, but this thread has nothing to do with either. This thread is to celebrate Geno's awesomeness. Clearly he's so good that a Super Bowl is inevitable.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Ok, that was good

The season record is the season record, regardless of the # of games. We don't have separate records for 12, 14, 16, or 17 game seasons. Any other information being discussed is just conversation.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Hoping he tears it up on Sunday. Would LOVE to see DK own his son, Ramsey again.

 

[Hawknballs]

Be nice to see DK do something besides look for flags and get flagged.

Last Sunday, Metcalf remained calmer than I would have in the same situation, as Gardner had DPIs counted as PDs.

 

[Hawknballs]

last sunday he had 3 yards.

That has sort of been my point for in here and people get fairly upset about it. I get the sentiment in general but the character assassination just comes off as a little goofy at times.

I tell you, some of the jokers at work be talking about his character/corniness and I be sitting there with a look on my face that makes them change the subject quick! Some of the corniest people I know. AND they don't have 1/1000th of his football accomplishments to fall back on.

The sad part of this whole deal is how some simply can not be happy for Geno. They can not help but try to tear him and his accomplishments down while still propping up a man that did not want to play for their team.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

He's had a hell of a season. I'm plenty happy for the guy. That has been the biggest surprise all year imo. If he breaks some records in 17 games instead of 16, big deal, still a hell of a season.
I'm still worried about him getting a huge contract, but that doesn't mean I hate the guy and/or don't think he's been pretty solid, especially mid-season. I would like to see them sign him to a 2 year deal that doesn't break the bank. This team needs to upgrade at several positions, not just in the draft. QB takes up too much $, it does impact what else they can do.

I don't really see people tearing him down? I think its super cool that a guy worked his ass off for 10 years and when he finally got his chance he played much better than everyone expected. It's been a blast to watch and I'm as happy as anyone for him. But that doesn't mean we can't question his second half fall off from the first half, if they really want to go back to paying a QB 30+ million after paying the last guy that much instead of a rookie contract for 5 years or if he is the right choice for years moving foward. It doesn't have to be an either or.

I personally think if you have a guy in the draft you love then you save the big contract and you're set up for a decade instead of a couple of years and its much cheaper and I wouldn't pass on an elite prospect for a guy who's had 1 really good year that can even be broken down by two halves. I feel good enough though that if they don't love a QB then sure take an elite defensive player and roll with Geno. I think its a real good problem to have that they find themselves in.
