Just Google “Jon Gruden Russell Wilson” and watch the 25 minute QB Camp. I knew after seeing that this kid has an incredibly advanced football brain. There will be growing pains (shut up), but I believe he’s destined for greatness. And I can say I saw his first game from the stands

I’m from Wisconsin and I don’t know who to root for: Mr. Flynn or Mr. Wilson.

I’m hoping both of them have an off-day when they play the Packers on the 24th next month. But, other than that, it would be great if they both end up as reliable/competent starting quarterbacks somewhere in the next couple of years.

I don’t want it to turn out that one guy implodes the other guy’s NFL career. There oughta be a rule that one NFL team can’t acquire all Wisconsin-developed QB talent.

OMG it’s one preseason game & you hawks fans think your going to take the division! Good luck with beating the niners, no chance in hell they win the division 7-9 or 8-8 at best & IF they do make it to the playoffs they will flounder in the wild card

Flynn will start the season (Jackson didn’t even play), but you can clearly see he’s too physically limited to be a long term solution.

Besides his height, Wilson looks like an intriguing option though and should get his chance sometime this season when Flynn shows he’s incapable of being much more than a care taker.

The Seahawk defense is actually pretty good, so it would be an ideal situation to groom a young QB in.

Gradkowski all over again. If Seattle can’t compete in that weak a– division then they need to be relegated to arena ball.

Says the guy who’s team went 0-1 against the NFC west last year losing 48-3.

Its so early but it looks like in the end tjack will get released with flynn the starter and wilson the number two. portis at number of course. release tjack or trade him by the 53 man cut down so the hawks can keep another wide out. i thinkvthey are getting sore on Durham seeing as he cant catch. A goid chance they want are going to need to keep T.O. and Edwards. then the locks are Rice,baldwin,tate with everyone else fighting for a sixth or seventh spot if they keep seven. more than likely they only keep six so they can hang on to an extra O lineman.

Wilson will be solid – a bright guy and crazy athletic. Many of the knocks on Wilson were also directed at Drew Brees once upon a time, and Drew has done Ok.

No, TJack was just misused, remember?

Pete said so.

He was playing against guys that won’t make the team playing vanilla defense. Lets go easy on putting him in the Seahawks Ring of Honor already.

I would like to see him with the first team though to see how how he handles that.

Wilson looked good for the most part, but I disagree with the perfection on that deep touchdown to Braylon. Braylon made a great mid-air adjustment to snag it away from the defended, much more accolades to the receiver on that play.

Wait until the first 6’8″ guy jumps in front of his pass, it’ll be a new story.

Flynn and Wilson both looked competent and the quarterback position is definitely improved over last year. That being said, it might be worthwhile to keep Jackson as a backup. He is not great but he is not terrible either, despite what many of the bloggers claim (he would have been a better option than anything Chicago came up with last year). The big difference between this year and last year is the play of the offensive line. Last year’s line was totally incompetent throughout the preseason and the beginning of the regular season.

Wilson is short but has huge hands and can run. He plays big in the pocket.

I like what I am seeing from both quarterbacks, but before we all over react and annoint Wilson, let’s give it a few more weeks. I mean Charlie Whithurst looked real good in the preaseason too…just sayin’. Go Hawks!

Russell Wilson WAS the best QB in the Big 10 last year, dude. Not even close. Cousins was good and Braxton Miller showed flashes, but that’s about it.

Preseason, second string = not impressed (Russel Wilson)

Flynn didn’t play terrible, but he played more like the rookie, trying not to make an error, while Wilson took command like he “owned” the situation. Flynn threw for 5.4 yards per pass and Russell threw for 7.5 per pass. Blend the ability to run for 59 yards and it’s pretty clear.

Forget about the 1st team-2nd team argument, because, although Wilson played against the 2′s, he also played with the 2′s on his team. It’s not like he was running with the 1′s. Bogus argument.

Wilson was the best QB on that Seahawks roster the minute he was drafted.

Wilson is a player, he is comfortable inside the pocket and outside of it. Good arm and great head, this is one NFL player you won’t see on any police reports.

He wasn’t even the best quarterback in the big 10 last year.
He’s listed at 5′ 1o” which means he’s probably not even that tall.
He will never be a starter in the NFL.

It’ll take NFL DC’s about 5 games to figure out how to snuff Wilson’s college QB game.

If Wilson could use his height as an advantage like doug flutie, this guy could make some noise and the seahawks would have a steal. Outside of luck and RG3, I think he and brock would be the next best two to start for a team and have success.

==================================

Oswwiler sucks bro, that guy will not make it in the NFL.
