Re: NFL Off Topic
And I don't agree is that not allowed? Outside of his first year playing and his injury year Brady has throw no less than 492 passes in a season (413 the year he took over for Bledsoe).
Wilson's highest 452, so no I don't see much comparison between the two outside of being on winning teams.
He's not wrong and I'm not right. But please tell me more about Corey Dillon and Anthony Thomas.
Brady makes sorry WRs better. Wilson was gifted Jimmy Graham and Graham will be luck to catch 35 balls this season.Moderator

And to kill me, he's gonna have to have the heart to stand in front of me. And to do that, he's got to be willing to die himself. I don't know if he's ready to do that."Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
To be fair, he is talking about their first 4 years in the league. And you're being extremely one sided if you don't take Wilson's rushing numbers into account...which is crazy because Wilson was a much more efficient passer than Brady too. Brady did play in a time where pass defense was much better however.
But Brady even in his early years, was a guy who made the talent around him better. While it appears to me that Wilson benefits from the talent and has actually made Jimmy Graham look worse (I am willing to entertain the thought that Graham has something to do with that) but then again when Brady had Moss (an elite WR talent), they damn near broke the league and Moss had far less in the tank than Graham at this point.
Am I hard on Wilson, sure I'll own that, but are we really gonna compare him to Brady even early in their careers. I think Wilson's early years compare more to Jim Kellys as a far as a passer of the footballModerator

Re: NFL Off Topic
Early in their careers (four seasons of playing), Brady already had three SB rings, 2 SB MVPs, etc. It's impossible to compare their first four years because of Brady's success.
However, the original point - I think - was talking about why no one called Brady overrated. That's just false/mis-remembering. People called Brady overrated until about 07 when he started put up the regular season stats to match the postseason success. He was a "system QB." He had a great defense. He had the best coach of all time. He simply dink and dunks it. And on and on.
That isn't a terrible comparison. Success/stats/early career numbers, though, yeah. Wilson and Brady are not a good comparison.Comment

Re: NFL Off Topic
Russell's had it drilled into his head, over and over again, that it's all about protecting the football by Pete Carroll. Think that contributes to some of his unwillingness to throw 50/50 balls lately. But his first two seasons that definitely wasn't the case and he was more than willing to throw those to Golden Tate and to a lesser extend Sidney Rice. He trusted Golden Tate a lot to win on those downfield. Just doesn't do it so much with Doug Baldwin and Jermaine Kearse. Think we're starting to see him go to Jimmy and trust him a bit more now, just think it'll take some time.
As you mentioned, he's had it drilled in his head not to take those chances, and the talent they've had on both offense (lack there of) and defense had a lot to do with that. So really, the comment isn't a knock on how he plays. But it is a problem if they want Graham to work out in their system. The best way to use Graham is different than anything he's been asked to do so far in his NFL career.
Lmao! I just thought about something. Russell Wilson is SLIGHTLY similar to Tom Brady. In the sense that he has led a team to more than one Super Bowl with receivers who were not high draft picks. People that dislike Wilson should think about that. Yeah, Wilson has benefited from having good defenses but so has Tom Brady, yet people never say Tom Brady is overrated but you always hear that about Wilson.
Am I wrong?
I am not even supposed to like Wilson since I am a niners fanComment

Re: NFL Off Topic
Fair enough.
That sounded ridiculous (though I wouldn't put it past athletes) which is why I added the "seriously".Comment
