I would rather play Seattle than Green Bay

As much as I hate Aaron Rodgers, he is far more of a legitimate threat as a QB than RW. Sure, RW can run around and heave the ball, but Rodgers is athletic as well, and makes incredibly difficult passes look mundane. 

Thinking back to our game against GB, it's scary how close we were to just giving that game up because Rodgers has the capability to get hot and come surging back.

I agree. Even if the pack had an ugly win, I'd still want to play Seattle

 Playing Washington makes you look like an all star

This isn't even taking into account tonight's game. You have to go back no further than our game with them earlier this season to see what Rodgers can do when he's a) motivated enough to win and/or b) he gets on an insane hot streak. 

I would rather play a QB who is lucky, like Wilson, because luck runs out. I would not rather play a QB who is elite, because he's going to elite.

Wilson is a good QB, don't undersell him.  He didn't have a good day today but did you see that play today where the ball was launched 15 yards behind him and he picked it up and made a play?  He make's plays.  So does Rodgers, I don't think anyone disputes that but I do think Seattle is better than Green Bay.  I think Arizona and Seattle are both dangerous for different reasons.  

Arizona has the best odds of winning the Super Bowl right now but that mostly has more to do with the fact that we have to beat Seattle (or they would have to beat us) and THEN beat Arizona to get to the Superbowl.  Best teams in the NFC right now IMO:

1. Panthers

2a. Arizona

2b. Seattle

4.  Green Bay

If the goal is to win the Super Bowl, we're going to have to play against some tough quarterbacks eventually.

Either this game, or the next. No way around it.

Obviously. But if the question is one or the other, as in this case it is, you obviously have a choice.

Wilson is pretty close to being just as dangerous of a passer as Rodgers in the playoffs.

Just when you thought he was going to take a huge loss on that fumble due to a bad snap from the center, he picks it up, and lobs a pass for a touchdown. Call it a fluke, luck, whatever you want, but those are the types of plays that propel teams forward in the postseason. When you add in the familiarity the Seahawks have in matching up with the Panthers, I don't think the gap between Wilson, and Rodgers is as big as you are implying in the OP. Just my opinion.

    • Doubling tripling and quadrupling down on this subject in defense of the pick is reminiscent of a certain mindset that has overtaken the political world. This conversation will become less contentious and dragged out to the point of becoming a dead beaten horse if rational minds can simply agree that we made a mistake missed on a potential franchise center and we will learn from it. All this coping is unnecessary.
    • Here in lies the rub that the supporting posters continue to ignore. He wasn’t a 2nd round pick in the 2025 class, especially with an ACL tear. It was a dumb pick for any GM who looks ahead to determine values. C and CB were much better values than an injured RB in 2024. If a RB isn’t even playing much in 2024, you have to compare him to 2025. We’re beating a dead horse but only because the defense of the pick is almost comical at this point. We’ve made a ton of poo picks and moves/non trades while Morgan was GM and the assistant GM. It happens, we don’t have to jump through hoops to act like we just had some really bad luck. The 2025 draft class is unknown so far but damn it felt way better afterwards for the first time in a long time. Embrace the potential and stop stamping guaranteed on the box of poo of the 2018-2024 drafts. We are were we aware because of them and 2025 has to hit so we can get past the 7 win max in 7 year hurdle. Also, “flashed his talent” isn’t 9 carries for 22 yards. His one reception for 18 yards isn’t a flash with 11 other touches for 27 yards. He hasn’t proven anything. We have no idea if he’ll contribute in 2026.
    • Oh for those tired of the Mannings I have bad news, Peytons son Marshal already has college teams after him and he isn't even in HS until this fall...   I'd wager we have two Mannings in the NFL in 2030
