I'd love for you to back up your assertion that he's top 10ish for his career with any sort of objective metric.I already gave you the players top 100 perspective.Pro Bowl: 2012: 1 of 11 (last NFL alternate so you could argue as low as 11th)2013: 1 of 6 originally selected2014: 1 of 6 originally selected2015: 1 of 6 originally selected, starter2016: Not selected2017: 1 of 6 originally selected2018: 1 of 12 (first NFC alternate, so you could argue as low as 10th)2019: 1 of 6 originally selected, selected as starter2020: 1 of 6 originally selected2021: 1 of 10 (second NFC alternate, you could argue as low as 10th)Brady has been to 9 Pro Bowls in that time. Rodgers has been to 8. Brees went to 7 in his 9 years of this span. Big Ben went to 6...total in his career. Matt Ryan's been to 4 total. Mahomes has been to 4 straight. Eli went to 4 total. Lamar's been to 2 in 4 seasons. Cam made 3. Matt Stafford and Josh Allen have been to 1.Russ has firmly been inside the top 10 the vast majority of his career, and is probably around an average of the 5th best QB at any given point in his career. I get you don't like the guy and that's fine. He's not especially likable.I doubt you have any real argument for his as "top 10ish" for his career. You certainly don't have any argument for "pretty good at best". At his best he's absolutely the elite of the elite. I agree he's not been that consistently. But he's been a lot better than pretty good, and certainly better than pretty good at best. Your citing Pro Bowls? Its a popularity contest. 1 All-Pro in 10 years. That will never improve. No MVP votes. This certainly wont go up. At best Hall of very good. As of now, he is battling for the last wild card spot in the AFC. Decent chance they don't even make the playoffs. This won't put him over the top to get in. Players top 100, pro bowl, passer rating, TD: INT - there's a plethora of metrics that show Russ is easily a top 10 QB over the span of his career.You have yet to point to one that suggests he's not.Still waiting. Lol now we are citing the meaningless players vote. Should have also added last time he wasn't All Decade and won't be on the next one either. Those will be reserved for Aaron Rodgers/Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes. Actual Hall of Fam level players. Now we are at no All Decade Team, no MVP votes in 10 years, 1 all pro team team in 10 years. You don't get put in the HOF on metrics. You are put in on accomplishments and he won't achieve anymore of those. Denver isn't really a QB away and now they have no meaningful draft picks and will have to pay him after this year. The window has already closed on them.

Seattle was never gonna win another Super Bowl with Wilson -- not as long as Jody Allen owns the team and leaves everything up to Carroll. Only way it could happen would be a total overhaul in the front office and coaching staff, and that's not in the cards. But besides that, you'd have to be blind not to see that Wilson has plateaued and he's just getting older with more off-field distractions. I wouldn't be surprised to see him start getting hurt every year. Time has a way of catching up with you -- especially when you've been pretty injury resistant your first 10 years.2022 will be very painful for Seahawks fans. Edited to add: There is no way in hell Wilson plays 10 more years. I think Russ's best seasons are still to come

I will also remind us that the season isn't over. I haven't watched any of their games yet so I don't have a sense of where things are going wrong. But I'm not sure I care enough to watch. Anyway, it's amazing that the offense would be so awful.

Anyway, it's amazing that the offense would be so awful. It’s the exact same things that were going wrong in Seattle. Blaming O line not blocking (even though they were puffing out their chest that Russ won’t get hit like he did in Seattle), wide receivers not getting open (which they are Russ is just criminally missing them), and playcalling (which is hilarious because all off season we were told this offense is 50/50 decision between Hackett and Russ).Russ and Hackett are where things are going wrong.
Any Hooks able to now admit that he's nowhere close to HOF material?
