Would you rather be on defense having to make a stop with the lead or put the ball into Russell Wilson's hands to win the game? Tough call for me.... I think I'd want to see RW decide the fate of the game.


Thoughts?

If we're up by 8, I'd trust the D can keep them from getting the TD and 2-pt conversion.

If we're up by 7 or less...nope, don't trust the Defense to hold it on the final drive. (see AZ, Detroit, and Miami losses—as well as the Bears game where we had that won, and they couldn't stop 1 play from happening which forced Russell to do it again in OT...big ups to Flynn on the coin toss call!)

I picked Russell...like Sailor says, in the "Victory formation"

How about a different scenario. Say we're up 3 and there's 5 minutes to go, Do you beleive the offense can close out the remaining 5 minutes and not give them the chance to possess the ball?

Regardless, if we're up, the defense is going to have to stop the Falcons at some point. I just want our offense to be on the field to end the game.

I'm suprised it's so one sided. One scenario we are already in the lead, in position to win the game. Tough call for me.

Haha I meant more or less if we were losing and RW was coming in or we were winning and had our D on the field but good answers so far.

You want the lead every second of every game. Give me the lead and our D to win.
