Blair Walsh cost Russ the MVP

[randomation]

If we have two more wins and are in the playoffs Russ wins it instead he gets zero consideration. I really hope we draft an actual kicker.

Poor coaching was more impactful

Russell’s last three games (Jacksonville, Dallas, and Arizona) is why he didn’t win MVP. The whole offense just completely shattered. Can’t really fault Russell. He must have been exhausted doing everything for the offense all year.

It was the WHOLE team..
You can blame everything @ one time or another in games you lost.
Relying on a kicker means you didn't do other things well during a game.

Granted BW wasn't very good but costing RW MVP? :shock:

Our coaches cost Wilson the MVP for putting guys who can’t play in a position to have to make plays.

If Russ wants the MVP, he too is going to have to perform for 4 quarters.

Cable and Bevell made us have to rely on a Kicker who shouldn't even be playing middle school kick-ball.

Let's just say that all of the things that cost RW the MVP are now gone, and be good with it. Even though it also caused us to miss the playoffs this year - this is the price to pay for our next several Lombardis.

The people that cost Russ the MVP are mostly the same ones that cost the Seahawks a championship in SB49. It's great that most of them are now gone. It took longer than it should have though. They knew Walsh was terrible, yet they kept putting him out there. That's not the player's fault. It's on the coaches and FO (for signing him in the first place). I'm not sure why Brian Schneider still has a job. He's the ST coach and they were terrible.

Heh. Read that sentence again.

I doubt he was top 5 in the running. His team didn't help him much but I agree gotta play 4 full quarters to be consistent.

Thanks. I fixed it.

The entire team, Russ included, played like ass in December. He didn't deserve MVP.

So, Russell Wilson shouldn't be counting on anybody else on the team doing their part?
Sometimes it's teams with DECENT kickers that can and very much DO help to put you over the top, eking out wins, just as LOUSY kickers can and DO cost you close games.
Walsh didn't hold up his end, and his errant kicks EASILY cost the Seahawks a couple of games.

He lead the league in passing TDs led the team in rushing accounted for 85% of the O scored 37 of 38 TDs some of you people are just kind of nuts in your expectations. Those are MVP numbers if we are in the playoffs he wins it.

LOL ....... the old useless blame game trap.

I'm a big special teams fan. :177692: But there is no way kickers wheel that kind of make or break power and influence over quarterbacks.

Two more wins and we are in the playoffs Walsh need to make two kicks to give us two more wins and they weren't exactly hard kicks.

I can't argue with this. The big talk about him being MVP really got going after the Eagles game and then faded pretty quickly.

It's a team game not RW above all else..
We can easily say RW cost the team a game or two..Why not?
There were 7 losses and no playoffs..
BW and others all had a hand in this in my book..

Russell Wilson cost Russell Wilson the MVP. You cannot play like he did in December and expect to be handed the MVP award, period. Even if we made the playoffs I doubt that he gets the award.
