I'll say one thing for Alex Smith. I've never seen a QB as mediocre-to-bad as him get as much talk & attention as he has for some reason. And he's not even that interesting! He's apparently like the nicest guy in sports, and you never hear anything about the guy except what he does in pads. It's a weird phenomenon. Jeff Garcia never got this much attention & debate. :noidea:

Wager? I missed that, what was it?

We have a Wilson vs Brady AV wager based on stats for next year. With Brady spotting Wilson 1000 yds and 10 TDs. I dont plan on winning the yards and if I do it will be close, like 800 or so I would imagine. But the TDs is where I'll plan on winning this bet.

It's just a different era. Social media gives everyone a ton of attention, deserved or not.

Elite = Brady, Manning and Rodgers

Not elite = Wilson

At some point players stop being elite. For Brady that may very well have been last year. 22nd in YPA, 21st in completion %. That's not "elite". And I dont think that Wilson is elite either, just better than Brady right now. Along with a few other young guns.

when your wearing a Brady AV for the wager we made, you will know the answer, hopefully

Made an AV bet that Brady would have 1000 more passing yards than Wilson. He should be more in tune with the 2nd year receivers this season

I like your chances on this wager. Yeah the Seahawks will run the ball and run often, but Wilson has always thrown for a bunch of TDs and with the new and improved receiving corp, I just seeing his stats getting better all the way around. I don't see Decker helping all that much and Brady looks to showing his age.

Sure that too. Brady had his kickoff specialist be his no#1 receiver last year. Dont forget he lost his top 5 receivers from the previous year. Sure his throws were off, but dont think he lost his velocity. He wasnt throwing up a lot of ducks. I think Tompkins and Dobson will improve vastly and hopefully Gronk can play more than a few games

Brady wasn't elite last year. Now you can point at his receivers or you can point at his age. It's a matter of judgement. I don't see Brady having a great season, regardless if you think it's his receivers or father time.

I wish they did sign Decker 6 '3 remember the game he had 4 tds in 1 game. They are not going to get a second rounder for Mallet, so why grab a QB then. Mettenberger which I would rather have went 6th round I think

A Sonny vs sonny wager...I like it.


Yep me vs Sonny jr I would love to see Seattle vs Pats in SB. I like Wilson ( NC state and Whisky) and Beastmode ( loved that interview with Deion) and Pete was not only Pats coach for a year,but met him giving him directions
