He's won a Super Bowl and carried that franchise for so long, even when the roster around him has mostly been sh*t. It's probably a function of the Seahawks being run-first for a long time. But that hasn't been the case for the last couple seasons, and especially not this year. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/russell-wilson-mvp-buzz-2020-outlook-and-why-hes-gotten-zero-votes-in-his-first-eight-seasons/ Russell Wilson MVP buzz: 2020 outlook and why he's gotten zero votes in his first eight seasons Wilson has been one of the best players in the league for years, but has never gotten any MVP recognition By Jared Dubin Jun 26, 2020 at 10:32 am ET2 min read Russell Wilson has been in the NFL for eight seasons, and he's accomplished a lot during his time in the league. He's made six Pro Bowls. He's never finished a season worse than 9-7, and he's reached double-digit wins in seven of eight campaigns. He's won at least one playoff game in six of his seven trips to the postseason. He's led the NFL in passer rating and in passing touchdowns and in fourth-quarter comebacks and in game-winning drives and he's made an All-Pro team. By any conceivable measure, he has been one of the small handful of most valuable players in the league since stepping on the field, and by one measure (Pro-Football-Reference's Approximate Value), he has been the single most valuable player league-wide during that time. And yet, in eight seasons, Wilson has received exactly zero Most Valuable Player votes. Despite that lack of recognition, Wilson is widely considered one of the favorites in the 2020 MVP race. William Hill Sports Book lists Wilson's odds at 8-1, placing him behind only 2018 MVP Patrick Mahomes (3.5-1) and 2019 MVP Lamar Jackson (6-1). That trio is joined in the top five by Deshaun Watson (14-1) and Dak Prescott (15-1). On Friday's episode of the Pick Six Podcast (listen below and subscribe here for daily NFL goodness), Will Brinson is joined by Joe Fann of NBC Sports Northwest to discuss all things Seahawks, including Wilson's MVP candidacy, whether or not Jadeveon Clowney will return to Seattle, and more. "I think if I'm starting a franchise, I think Pat Mahomes goes one and I think Russell Wilson, even at age 31 now, goes two," Fann said. "He's certainly top five. You can't honestly tell yourself that he's a gimmicky quarterback at this point or that he's just a scheme quarterback or whatever. We're eight years in." Brinson and Fann also discuss Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer's run-heavy offense, the "Let Russ Cook" movement among Seahawks fandom and whether Wilson himself would prefer the offense become more open and pass-oriented, and what Wilson might look like in a scheme coached by Andy Reid, Kyle Shanahan, or some of the other most creative offensive minds in football. "The Seahawks don't have the luxury of being one of the most conservative teams in football," Fann said. "Their defense didn't earn it last year: 23rd in DVOA, towards the bottom in scoring, yards, all of it. Second worst in the NFL in sacks. And yet game in and game out you see Pete Carroll rely on his defense like they've earned that trust, and they just haven't. "And so when you punt on 50-yard line on 4th-and-inches, kick a field goal on fourth-and-1 on the 25 yard line ... that's what brings in the eye rolls and the groans, and deservedly so given who you have at quarterback, the limited prime that he has -- who knows how long he'll go, but it is finite."

pointman Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Meh. Who cares. Turncoat Jamal hurt his baby dick, and that defense has been exposed as fake as the 12th man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icer Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Their pick was always going to 20+ barring a major injury to Russell. Lets just hope they don't make it to 31-32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UntouchableCrew Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 It was always going to be a late 1st but I think they'll eventually lose some games. Every one they're in is a shootout, they could easily be 1-2 right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you look at previous drafts those picks have extra value especially for someone to come up and get a QB with a 5 year contract. We could win up with a third 1st round pick in 2022 as well as a high 2nd just to move down 4 or 5 spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sad thing is Nico was, supposedly, an adult as well. His obsession with Sam Darnold, his lashing out with childish insults at those that didn't praise him, and inability to bear seeing him take deserved criticism.....all of that was both creepy and pathetic.

RocketBills Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 what REALLY sucks the most about this season is we have yet to see Darnold throw a 65 yard TD pass and then turn to the sidelines and shout out " I told yall I was the read deal, SUCK MY NUTS!!" He is going to unleash his inner beast and go off any game now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embrace the Suck Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 5 hours ago, Jetsfan80 said: Sorry, couldn't wish that on Wilson. So wish something nice on Wilson. For instance: "I wish RW retired from football this week to become a literacy teacher". See, that was easy. Not only do the Jets get a better pick children learn how to read and write, as well as RW finding a deeper meaning in life. I think that would also help to qualify you as a good person for wishing such. It a no lose wish all around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuscanyTile2 Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 If Pete Carroll ran the ball, RW would likely have 2 Superbowl titles already and Brady would've had 5.
