In nine years he's had two losing seasons and only missed the playoffs twice. I'd literally carry Pete Carroll piggyback style across the country from Seattle to Charlotte to get him to Carolina.

How much of that is on the strength of one amazing draft, though?

Most of that amazing draft is gone now and despite a pathwork OL and injury issues they still went 10-6 and made the playoffs. That's the difference between a Pete Carroll and a Ron Rivera. We have to catch every break we can to have a winning record under Rivera.

I think that's Russ to be honest.

Dude can play football, doesn't miss games, although he does have an expensive contract.

There's a scene in Major League (just before they bring out Wild Thing) where the veteran pitcher says "I'm throwin' every piece of junk I can at 'em, Skipper".

That line always reminds me of Russell Wilson.

I just think at this point, it's just the way he plays.

Seems like TONS of luck involved in his passing plays, but after this many years?  It's not luck, it's just a knack I think.

He's a damn good QB, but there's a lot of more to it than that. A QB alone doesn't get you 7/9 winning seasons and 7/9 playoff appearances. Ghe Packrfs had back to back losing seasons missing the playoffs with Aaron Rodgers.

The folks in Seattle will never forgive Pete for calling that timeout followed up by a pass play from the 1 yd line in the Super Bowl.  

That was admittedly a spectacular blunder and reeked of an arrogant attempt at shifting the offensive star off of Lynch and onto Wilson.
