I'm not claiming that the Seahawks are great. Way too early for that. Too much variance in who teams have played so far.

I see them as just a good team with a great QB.

I think people tend to fall in love with how Wilson has played so far and not look deeper beyond that. They've been average at running the ball and while they've been great on run defense they've been mediocre on pass defense which makes them overall average on defense.

Right now Wilson has them on their back with the MVP year he's having so far but if he slips a little bit it could lead to some problems for them.

The Seahawks certainly have not been dominant. And they have absolutely been riding on the arms and legs of Russell Wilson.

Having said that, the Seahawks have been pretty decent running the ball over the past few games. Carson having a bad case of fumbleitis hurt the running game.

The pass rush is definitely a big problem that will hopefully improve when Reed comes back from suspension.

But if I had a choice between a really balanced talented team and a average QB and an average team with an elite QB, I'll take the latter every single time. You can win with an average QB but it is pretty damn hard.

I was arguing with some fan who was trying to use QBR to claim Winston was a good QB.
Said then I dont care if it said a Cowboy was a top QB. My opinion of QBR will never change.

& yes. Dak shouldnt be considered the best in any formula created.

I am not big on QB ratings either. but QBR is bizarro world.

than QBR. yeah. but they both dont mean shit to me.

Think back when I was debating the Winston thing. It had him way up on the rankings. Also think he was higher than Aaron Rodgers LOL. That should never be a thing :laugh3:

Wilson averaging 9 yards per attempt w/ a passer rating of 126 is the first time a QB's ever done that through 5 games since Joe Montana and Montana only did it once in his career...

Impressive, but 5 games isn't much of a sample size.

I hear ya but he's been averaging close to this this since week 8 of 2018 regular season... 20 TD's 3 INT's over that span with over 9ypa... Then add in this season and he's at 32 TD's to 3 INT's over 13 regular season games... That's pretty dang impressive imo...
