The only combination of running game and defense that matches what Wilson started his career with might be the 85 Bears.
This post is very underwhelming to say the least.
Wilson has been aided by a stout defense and a power running game. The Seahawks defense gives Wilson more possessions and the power running game also helps with TOP and slows the pace of the game.
However, it doesn't change the fact that his musical chair OL that moonlights as crowd control at the Gorge has been garbage at pass protection since Wilson has started for the Seahawks.
I don't blame you for having a shortsighted position though. Every time the Seahawks play the Rams, Wilson typically has a below average game because your dominant D-line cuts through our OL like butter and our OC likes to have long developing plays against the best DL's in the league.
It doesn't change the fact that the difference between Wilson and Luck is elusiveness. Wilson can escape pressure and avoid a pass rush better than any other QB in the League. Luck is athletic, however, he has average dodging ability. I would say the Colts O-line and Seahawks O-line are comparable. Wilson makes it work, Luck gets a lacerated kidney and an abdominal tear.
Wilson is the only QB in NFL history to have at least 4000 passing yards, 30 TD's and 500 rushing yards in a single season.
Andrew Luck beats Wilson in three categories:
1. Buffalo Bill (Silence of the Lambs) voice impersonation
2. Neck Beard growth
3. Hype
Wilson is better than Luck hands down, you can't find any stats to refute it and there isn't one QB I would take over him in the NFL.
Speaking of him playing the Rams...You know whats funny? I just looked at it and Wilson has the same QB rating in his career against the Rams, 49ers and Cards....His QB rating is 93.7 against all 3 teams lmao. That is a weird and amazing stat IMO. Not sure what the odds of having the same exact QB rating is. At least according to profootball reference
