Russell's short interview with Peter King

[Hawkboi]

Russell is a total class act, and he's going to take us all the way!!! :th2thumbs:

 

[SalishHawkFan]

Even if he were a dolphin, RW3000 is programmed for 'go hawks'

Get it straight--his model # is RussBot9000.

Most robots code information in 1's and 0's, but the RussBot codes everything in 6's. 8)

Fixed that for you.

I love that someone actually gets is. "You don't leave the pocket to run, you leave the pocket to buy time for your receivers to get open."

While the rest of the NFL still thinks Wilson is a "read/option" QB that runs the ball like RGIII, this guy understands that Wilson is a scrambler like Fran Tarkenton. Vast difference and the main reason why guys like RGIII and Newton will be impacted by defenses planning for their style of play and Wilson won't. Wilson will take advantage of defenses having to play the read/option.

In this age of pro athletes having this rapper/thug/gangsta mentality, Wilson is truly refreshing. Humble confidence what a concept.

I really hope the teams focus on the read option as much as the media say. We barely used it last year! It was a wrinkle in maybe three games?

No doubt it'll be used in certain game plans this year too, but it doesn't define the Seahawks offense or Russell Wilson in the way it maybe defines Robert Griffin III.

And yeah, it's great to hear Russell again. Just the perfect quarterback for a fan to get behind, an ideal face for this franchise on the field.

Off the field too. It means a lot (to me anyway) that he really cares about his reputation and the teams' image and he carries himself accordingly.

What's not to love about this guy??

 

[Eamon696]

Lemme guess.....cliche much?

Not as much as in some of his other interviews.

Couldn't agree more on all accounts.

I actually get annoyed when I see Russell and Pete answer questions about the read option by saying that they didn't use it that much last year. I want them to play along and make it so every team is expecting them to do nothing but. lol.

And it really is awesome being able to not only love your qb on the field but also everything he stands for off it as well. Seeing that SF qb wearing sunglasses indoors during the ESPYs just continued to hammer home how much I appreciate RW.
