I haven't watched Wilson much, but he seems to be a natural leader on the field, and the team is inspired by him.... if he runs and makes a first down, the team kicks it up a few notches

same thing happens with brady , although Wilson is a much better runner


these guys are so good, they have so much pressure to carry the team, they aren't allowed to have a bad day, but then again, this is all they do, and have done....not to mention, making almost a million dollars a game..
this is what makes me crazy when they drop the ball, some of these guys are making 20-50,000 a catch ,


im not a manning fan, but I respect the guy, he is going to be crucified
does he go out with what dignity he has left??
did I read he's going to make 19 million next yr???
for 19 million, why wouldn't he go one more year?? unless he is really hurt?

Being a Wisconsin fan I've seen him quite a bit, but he (Wilson) just has "it". That intangible thing that makes a winner. And he's always calm.

Luck and Rodgers are both deadly on the run as well... So it's not just Wilson.
Seattle's offense is extremely overrated because we all know what side of the ball wins games for that team.

Not to the degree that Wilson is though. Wilson ran for over 800 yards this year while still being a perfectly capable and efficient passer.

Calm is a good word....those elite QB's always look calm no matter how bad the pocket is collapsing, or blocking assignments breakdown. I would throw Romo in there as someone who has gotten better at limiting his mistakes, however injuries seem to be taking a toll on him (like Peyton)...

Wilson is calm and he's got a real good touch on the ball too....those (I call them floaters) he threw in the Carolina game were exactly where they needed to be. Those big plays seperate him and others (ie Kaep/Cam) IMO...

And...

Seattle INTs: 13
Seattle Defensive TDs: 2

Green Bay INTs: 18
Green Bay Defensive TDs: 3
You also have to consider GB's offense scoring so many points it forces opponents to play one dimensional football.

I think fans still underestimate how good Wilson is at the QB position.

Brady begs to differ with the "slowest 17 year run I've ever seen" (per Edelman.)
