Just to dispel any question of my fandom,
I'd be quite proud if Russell banged my wife.

Agree with much of what you are saying here particularly regarding how RW had the benefit of a world -class defense and running game at the beginning of his career. Since those two things are now gone he has struggled a lot more to win/lead the team to the playoffs. (Last season was a miserable outing)
Not ready to call him "toast" just yet. Hoping he can find a way to improve as a pocket QB given his speed is reduced and teams are so tuned in to his scrambling habits. (The old backwards spin thing that has cost us a ton of yards of late)
Hoping for the best but won't be at all surprised if we don't see it...

Hope you have some stuff left in the tank to take Drew Brees down a peg for not compensating for his miserable team over the years.
Look, RW could be much better. You know it, I know it, the whole world knows it. But let's put it out there that a QB, no matter how good they are, can compensate for a team that erodes over time. Ask yourself, if RW must be better, why must he be better? Because he has a 2nd contract? Because of all the defense that got paid, only ET remains and Wags remain? And remember, not even Saint Breesus can will a team to playoffs on his talent alone.
I think this is also a good time to invoke how efficient market hypothesis is bunk.

Yet more proof the franchise isn't sold on Wilson's longer-term viability w/the team. This hesitation is most likely due to last season's hot/cold performances and general grumblings among players past and present that perhaps he's not the one to make a return to the SB happen.
Gonna have to kick my accuracy rate up to 98.27% to account for this latest media confirmation of things shared here months earlier.
How does the team get better if it has eroded when you are faced with paying the QBsemiahmoo":2s4fn5ku said:mrt144":2s4fn5ku said:semiahmoo":2s4fn5ku said:xray":2s4fn5ku said:He was shiny for 4 seasons when the Hawks had the best defense and top ten run game in the NFL.

You're reading too much into this. Carroll will have signed his death warrant here in Seattle if he doesn't sign Wilson. Do I think he is 30 million/yr? Hell no. Does the team have any choice in the matter? Probably not. It's quite the pickle to be stuck in.semiahmoo":fftt1lg7 said:RCATES":fftt1lg7 said:100% yes.

a big chunck of the cap?I thought the point was to play for Titles and if that won't happen
what is the point of watching RW slow down the rebuild more than needed?
That picture is interesting ..Brees clearly has more height to work with.
