I answered "best QB starts" based on the assumption that Flynn's "sore arm/shoulder" was indeed impacting his ability to play.

I'm not 100% sure Wilson is the best option anymore. But i am 100% sure that since we chose Wilson to start we now need to stick wtih him and let him grow regardless of growing pains.

You don't pull a rookie QB after 4 starts, especially not in our situation. Sure, there's a chance that Flynn comes in and lights it up but it's a big gamble. Much bigger gamble than a friggin onside kick.

Stick with the Rookie let him develop. Too late to put the rabbit back in the hat.

I have more faith in Wilson at this point... it's Carroll and Bevell that frustrate me.
We're not putting Wilson in a place where he can succeed with our current play-calling and scheme.

RW is a rookie and has all the time in the world to develop.
You have to see what Flynn can do. It would be foolish not to.

I don't think RW has played well at all. I also don't think that anybody has helped him. I also don't think Flynn would do any better or they would let him do any better.

This offense is as basic as it gets.
You can pull Wilson and start him later without any difference in offensive play calling.
We're not losing anything by starting Flynn.

Can you say without a single shred of doubt that Russell Wilson is better than Matt Flynn?

To me its not as much about whether we're going vanilla or whether we're going exotic, its about whether we allow him to move around, improvise and be Russell Wilson. Thats what we saw on the first drive, which was masterful. I feel they're stifling his creativity. _________________

While I believe in letting rookie QBs spend a year on the bench, I can't disagree a whole lot with what we did given our QB situation and how good Wilson looked in (completely meaningless and way overvalued) the preseason.
The 2nd best thing to letting a rookie ride the bench is starting early, and then sitting. Gets to see how he handled certain situations, and then see how someone else did it. Gives time to reflect, whereas a starter is always preparing for the upcoming opponent. So I don't mind benching Wilson.
That said, I decided before TC that whoever won the job would get six weeks before I'd pitch removing them. Wilson hasn't done anything egregious enough to change my mind - he's just struggling like a rookie, and in many ways better than a rookie. I'm really not confident than Flynn would do a whole lot better, although I'm not against finding out at some point this season.
Another reason to stick Wilson in is that I cannot say with any degree of confidence whether or not Wilson is our long-term QB - that's a question we don't need to know now, but we need to know it by the end of the year. I want to see RW grow, and if we try to find improvement over a 4 game sample size, we're just being silly.

Compete for it in practice what have you got to lose? One of two things could happen:
1.) The added pressure makes Wilson better being he preforms better under pressure.
2.) He buckles under the pressure. in this case we don't want him.
