The great Russell Wilson

Once again you offer an overly simplistic take. First of all, Wilson is not far better than Smith. Here’s how they compare this season:

Completion %: Smith 67.6, Wilson 66.1
Pass Yards/Game: Smith 235.0, Wilson 201.6
QBR: Smith 60.0, Wilson 45.3

Second, it’s not merely about comparing Wilson vs Smith. It’s looking at their differences in salaries, which impacts the kind of players the teams can get to build around them. And it’s looking at how much the Broncos gave up to acquire Wilson.

Put it this way: would you rather have Smith for 4 years on contracts that are worth up to combined $112 million PLUS three players PLUS four draft picks PLUS a pick swap, or just Wilson on a 5-year deal worth $245 million?

Clearly Seattle made the right decision, evidenced by the fact that they made the playoffs last year and are currently in first place in their division.

the way you factor in 4 drafts picks to claim that Geno is better doesn't really help your point there skippy.

If you don’t understand the point, then you shouldn’t be posting in this thread. Maybe this article might help you:

What did the Broncos trade for Russell Wilson? Revisiting the deal that sent Seahawks QB to Denver | Sporting News

@JoeRiveraSN

The Broncos are looking for a positive return on investment. Here's what they gave up to get Russ.

Link:www.sportingnews.com/us/nfl/news/russe...

Russ beats the Bills on MNF. Now up to #4 in in passer rating in 2023 behind Purdy, Tua, and Dak. #3 in TDs (18) but only 4 picks -- no on else in the top ten of TD passes has so few picks.

CJ Stroud in top 10 with only 2 INTs.

Missed that. Looks like I made another rookie mistake, sheesh.

Not sure how Dak has a slightly higher passer rating than Stroud. Dak does have 2 more passing TDs but 4 more INTs. Stroud leads league with most yards per game. Does passing % carry that much weight.

As far as Geno Smith who has far better receivers goes.....

Geno....65,3 comp%, Wilson 67.9. Geno 11-7 td/int, Wilson 18-4, Geno a wimpy87.2, Wilson 104.pas.er rating So it's all Russell Wilson.

Wilson is on pace for another 30 td season another 100 passer rating, yep, a stud.

Pretty obvious whatever was broken is now fixed, bummer Wilson doesn't have better recevers.

Wilson has been incredible with good passing ratings throughout his career. Outside of last year, either in 99s or mostly slightly above 100.

Yep, he's had 8 seasons with a passer rating at 100 or better. Putting that in perspective Tom Brady had 8 also but he played for how long?

The great Russell Wilson

I’ll give credit where it’s due. Wilson played very well last night. But let’s also give credit to the Broncos’ defense, which once again had a strong performance. They not only held Allen and the Bills to 22 points, they forced two turnovers that resulted in two field goals for the Broncos even though Wilson failed to get a first down on the ensuing possessions.

Let’s also consider how lucky Wilson got on that final drive. After doing a good job getting the Broncos into position to kick a game-winning field goal, Wilson took a bad sack (his fourth of the game) that took the Broncos out of field goal range. This was on a play in which the Bills were obviously going to blitz, as the announcers called prior to the snap, noting that you just can’t take a sack in that situation.

After the sack, the Broncos had third down and 10. Wilson attempted a deep pass to Jeudy, who had done a terrific job gaining separation on his way to the end zone. If Wilson had hit Jeudy in stride, he scores a touchdown. Instead, Wilson badly under-threw the ball, causing Jeudy to pump the brakes and leading the defender to bump into him, yielding a lucky pass interference penalty.

If that wasn’t lucky enough, the Broncos’ rushed field goal attempt was wide right, but they got another chance due to the Bills having 12 men on the field. I guess it’s better to be lucky than great.

Bottom line in all this is he's on a whole other level than he was last season. His numbers are similiar to his Seattle days not last season. All his numbers among the best in the NFL.

Last season he had 16 td passes already at 18 this season, yep,big difference.

Not all his numbers. He’s only 23rd in the league in total passing yards, 25th in passing yards per game, and 19th in QBR. His passing yards per attempt this year is a career low. His arm strength is not what it used to be.

I don't see that at all, I see a coach knowing he has a weak receiving gang so he tries to keep it easy for Wilson.

The three numbers that mean the most comp%, td/int, passer rating we see Wilson among the best in football.

I just wish you knew more about football Deno. Yards per pass attempt is a hugely important stat for a QB and Russell Wilson is 21st at 6.9. This shows how he is not efficient as a QB. Geno Smith is 14th at 7.2. You really sound like a desperate rookie with your crush on Wilson.

Actually that comp% is the most important as is that TD/INT ratio, as is that passer rating,. All Russell Wilson over Smith despite Smith having far better receivers. Who compares Geno Smith to Russell Wilson anyway, what a rookie.

What's really cool about all this is we have another 4/5 seasons of Wilson putting up great numbers just like he was doing for a decade. Loving it~~~~~~~~~~

All you....Wilson is done.....hahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!

Take a few more seasons to pass Dan Marino's 420td passes, will pass Tarkenton next season.

No we do not have 4 or 5 more seasons of Wilson. Wilson will be done after 2 more mediocre to poor seasons. RW will be 35 in a couple weeks and his arm strength and running ability are diminishing before our very eyes. RW will not want to be a backup either, and in a year or two, that is what he will be.
