Play calling sucks. See the gif above.

Wait I thought Russell sucked,? Or was it the whole team sucked? Now its bad play calling? No, thats right the NFL sucks. Im beginning to think you watch more NFL than you say. Mods lets do that 12 jersey donation for LC. Name on the back can say closet fan.
Oh btw, still waitingfor that list of better qbs than Russell.
Throw a dart at the list of QBs 10 times.
Wilson owns one of the worst choke play calls/executions of NFL history with his Super Bowl goal-line INT while the league rushing champ stood a yard behind him. Should have audibled. Should not have thrown an INT.
And that has carried on to this season... his stats have been above average for several seasons and the Seaducks have done nothing remarkable. Fluke team/seasons. A short run of 10-12 wins/season. Won't get there this season. 2 SB runs, 1-1 at the big dance.
Preseason Business Insider had him at #6. And he's not gotten any better with a 5-3 record.

I'd say Sports Illustrated is about as neutral as one can find. They have Wilson at #14 and that was two weeks ago and before the most recent loss, several INTs and fumble(s).

So, yeah, he's pretty much right in the middle of the pack of a team that's barely above average... about 1/4 the teams better records than the Hawks and 2/3 worse. Again, a good QB rating, with a 5-3 team, 6 INTs and 4 fumbles and 2nd place in the doormat division.
Your ignorance of football in general continues to show, and though you are googling like crazy, your stuff is dated.
What's the matter, no original thoughts?
The Super Bowl play that you continually reference because you don't have much else to say, actually wasn't a 'choke' by Wilson.
In actuality, if you really followed the game or the team, you would know that a player that used to be on the Seahawks, was then on the Patriot's defense that day. He advised the guy on coverage on that route what the Seahawks like to do, and that he should 'jump' the route. That, combined with the receiver not fighting through the ball, is what led to the interception.
That's why it's considered a bad call (by the offensive coordinator), rather than a bad play.
As far as 2 Super Bowl appearances and 1 ring, there are Hall of Famers who would kill for that ring.
Many never went, and many more never won. Ever hear of Dan Marino? How about Dan Fouts? Jim Kelly? Fran Tarkenton? Warren Moon?
And your outdated SI google that you say doesn't have his Sunday loss, also doesn't include his amazing comeback a week ago.
Yes, there are teams that have better records, but some are there because of an easy schedule, or they've played teams where star players were out.
You would know that if you actually followed football, instead of just googling to argue about it to cause dissension.
And yes, at the moment we're 1 game behind in our division, but we've already beaten the team ahead of us at their home stadium this year.
Kind of funny you keep throwing out stats, when on other threads you say one can find stats to support anything.
