Don't forget how he totally shat the bed on Dallas' last THREE drives. The interception was just the cherry on top of the shit sandwich, but that'll be what you obsess over in order to give Romo a pass.

Seattle possessed the ball for less than 3 minutes in the 4th quarter and 1 of the drives was ended by the aforementioned missed call ... and it was a TERRIBLE missed call.

There is a reason why his 5 QBR didn't effect his overall 90 QBR for the game ... because he didn't really do anything until the final drive because they were trying to kill the clock playing not to lose and trying to keep the ball away from Brady

90.8 QBR for the game

and, once again, got his team in position to win the game (per usual) when it counted most

Butler just made the play of the decade

RUSSELL WILSON QBR : 90.8
TOM BRADY QBR: 81.1

Wilson 2 career Super Bowls ...

QBR: 88.1 and 90.8

yeah, Russell Dilfer

you're a ****ing dipshit

In terms of one play swinging a team’s chances of winning the Super Bowl, the second-down interception was probably the most important in the history of the NFL. Burke’s Advanced Football Analytics model suggested after the game that the Patriots’ chances of winning jumped from 12 percent before the interception to 99 percent afterward, for a swing of 87 percentage points. It’s difficult for one play in any context to shift things that dramatically.

The Mike Jones tackle of Kevin Dyson at the 1-yard line in Super Bowl XXXIV came to mind, but that was a 23-16 game; even if Dyson had gotten in, Tennessee’s chances of winning would have risen only to about 50 percent, since the two teams would have gone to overtime (or Tennessee would have attempted a two-pointer, which would also have put its chances of winning near 50 percent). The most meaningful play before this one was probably Scott Norwood’s missed 47-yard field goal in a 20-19 game at the end of Super Bowl XXV, but there’s no way he had an 87 percent chance of making the game-winning field goal to begin with, so even reducing Buffalo’s chances to zero wouldn’t match Wilson’s interception.

well no ****ing shit moron

that terrible playcall obviously ended the Super Bowl

yet, only two people have blamed Russell Wilson on this board for it ... you and Just Passin' By

Gee, wonder why?

You two are the biggest dumb****s on the board.

of course, this is the same board that said Russell played "average" when he was the best player on the field and had a 90.8 QBR (which is clutch based formula) ...

this board knows dick about QB play

that much I know

2014: Spotted a huge lead by Lynch, Hauschka, Harvin and the defense, and of course, Fivehead having his usual playoff meltdown. He did get to pad his stats a bit in the second half, though. The Super Bowl MVP was rightfully awarded to a defensive player instead of Wilson.

2015: Couldn't even complete a pass until the second quarter; 3-10 on third down; blew a ten-point lead (couldn't even score, even while being bailed out with miracle catches); biggest choke INT in NFL history.

The playcall wasn't good, but last I checked, Pete Carroll wasn't the one who threw that pick, and neither was Darrell Bevell.

Russell executed the play that was called very well. It's not his fault one bit. The defender made a legendary play.

I could go round, and round, and round and the numbers will still say Russel Wilson had a 90.1 QBR in the Super Bowl and was the best player and quarterback in that Super Bowl ... and you'll try to manipulate the numbers because you're an idiot like you did with that 2007 Dallas playoff game against the Giants ...

but it's pointless.

You're a dipshit.

If you actually believe that Wilson was the best player and quarterback in the Super Bowl, you are hopelessly biased.

the Patriots were the best team in the Super Bowl and ONE GUY on Seattle decided that it was going to take a miracle for New England to win

it's aight, though

this has happened before

in 2 years when Wilson is thought of as the best or 2nd best NFL QB and everyone, per usual, was 3-4 years behind me

it'll be fun

and Tom Brady played the best postseason game I've ever seen Tom Brady play in my life, so please, Patriot defenders, don't think I'm insulting Tom Brady. That was his legacy game.

I actually agree that Wilson is a beast but the ball placement on that INT was less than ideal. It should have been low to a point where Lockette made the sliding catch or it fell incomplete.

You're also moving the goal posts on your Wilson argument. You said before the start of the 2013 season that everyone would recognize Wilson as a top 3 QB (or thereabout). Now you're saying it'll be after this next season..

No, but they had an actual franchise quarterback and the Seahawks didn't.

LMAO

I already think he's a top 3 NFL QB

I'm not moving the goalposts one bit.

Dude is sensational.

Chiefs fans ...

passing on Bridgewater is a fail to BIBLICAL proportions

....

RUSSELL WILSON ISN'T ELITE

My ****ing God.

Hootie...

Alice Smiff = great!

Aaron Rodgers = garbage and overrated!

never once referred to Rodgers as anything less than a top 5 QB

nice try

You referred to him as "GROSSLY overrated" and a "choker."

LMAO @ Wilson being the best QB in the superbowl. That's pretty hilarious.

Go away! I'm 'batin!

You gotta say when Hootie goes in he goes balls deep.

Tom Brady

you thought Russell Wilson played "an average" game in the Super Bowl

he had a 90.8 QBR

he was AMAZING

he single-handedly kept his team in the game DESPITE the Patriots being BY FAR the more prepared team

...and he had the game won

but then Tom Brady blasted the Hawks with a Tom Brady legacy game

...and Wilson STILL won the game

UNTIL THAT ****ING PLAYCALL THAT WAS THE DUMBEST ****ING THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE

Herm died when that play was called. Seriously. Has he been on TV lately? Is Herm dead?

I thought it was a case of Wilson being solid for the entire game, Brady being meh for the first half or 3/4, then going into God mode late. It kinda made Wilson look worse.

Had Brady played better the entire game, he wouldn't have needed the late heroics.

Of course this is solely an opinion and more than likely, wrong.

Record for longest time gone without a completion
3/8 in the 1st and 4th quarter combined (one being the fluke Kearse catch)
Threw game losing INT

You live in a world of your own if you think that's a great performance.

you do realize that Seattle, like every stupid ****ing NFL team, decided to play "not to lose" once they built a 10 point lead rather than going for the jugular

and everyone conveniently forgets the game changing blatant defensive pass interference on Butler when he tripped and grabbed the Seattle receivers foot which prevented a first down and potentially a HUGE gain and probably the dagger in New England

...but I realize people aren't very sophisticated football viewers and only remember the convenient aspects of the game

This no call cost Seattle the Super Bowl and no one talks about it.

The play call was what lost Seattle the game.

Colin Cowherd did an interview with Butler a day or 2 after the Super Bowl where the kid layed it all out.

1) there were a handful of times during the regular season when Seattle was in a similar scenario (needing a yard or 2 on the goal line) and in 5 out of 7 times that they didn't run Lynch (which they didn't convert when they did) they ran that EXACT SAME PLAY with slants and a quick throw.

2) Bill Bilicheck pulled Butler aside DURING SUPERBOWL WEEK when they were practicing situational football and this exact scenario came about and Bill showed him EXACTLY how to prepare for the play by taking inside position and as soon as the first step was made to jump in front of the receiver and get his hands up.

It wasn't by any means a lucky play for NE, they were prepared for the situation because Bevel is so predictable.

Bill baited Seattle into running that play on a rookie, thinking that had the best chance of success and it worked out beautifully.

There are amazingly stupid playcalls every single week. Just because there's a bad playcall doesn't excuse throwing an INT. Wilson could have placed the ball better. He could have audibled to a run. Something. Anything. I just don't buy the whole "The playcall was horrible so it makes him throwing a pick okay" logic.

It was probably a dagger? ROFLROFL It was a 3 point game at that point, the ball was at the Seattle 20 and there was 8 minutes left in the game. Dagger? Haha.

Did the refs fail to complete a pass until the second quarter, go 3-10 on third down, and throw the biggest choke INT in NFL history?

No one made him throw that ball...

Can we please take note of this? Somebody on CP is actually admitting that they might be wrong. Someone please screen capture that post for record. Perhaps we should move this thread to HOC for safe keeping.

Tom Brady

The play call didn't force him to throw an INT.

so

in your opinion

every INT thrown by a QB is always the QB's fault

right?

That pass, in traffic, should have been low, into the receiver's hip.
That throw was high at in front of the receiver.

That was asking for a pick.

I really like Wilson, and believe he's far better than many give him credit for, but that pick was all on him.

Piss poor play call, but worse execution.

No. Some balls are tipped in the air and that's not on the QB most times.

But this was on Wilson. The ball placement was terrible. Why was he trying to lead Lockette at the 1 yard line? You throw that ball low and to the body.

Wilson is 5"10. He really couldn't have thrown it low.

Incorrect.
Every INT thrown by a QB is not always the QB's fault. I'm not sure how anyone could possibly get that out of what I posted, but I guess you gotta want it.

I don't really get why it has to be a choke per say on Wilson. Defender made a great play on a decently thrown ball.

I don't agree with your statement, that because of his height, that he couldn't throw it low.

But I also don't think it's a choke job.

I think it's a mistake that a young QB makes, and he will learn from it.

It's just a damn shame that that learning moment came in the most critical situation possible.

Unless he's gonna throw it thru the de and or rt, I'm not sure how he could have thrown it much lower

I have three years of evidence that shows me Wilson makes big time play after big time play after big time play in big time games. I truly feel like the defender just made the best play of his life.

regardless, calling that play in that situation will forever haunt my dreams, regardless of execution

The horrible ball placement was the QB's fault.

Yeah, like the Saints game. Or regulation against the Packers. Or both Super Bowls (didn't have to do anything in the first one, choked the second one away).

he posted an 88 QBR and a 91 QBR in his two Super Bowls

the Saints game was never even a game ... terrible weather conditions ... and they led like 16-0 at halftime

and he scored 3 or 4 straight TD's to beat the Packers in the NFC Championship Game; very resilient; most guys would have folded

you're a ****ing moron

Tom Brady overthrew a wide open Julian Edelman by 10 yards on a TD throw in the same game before hitting him on the same route on the game's final TD

not every throw is going to be perfect

Russell executed the playcall just fine. The defender made a fantastic play. It's hilarious that some people want to put that on the QB and refuse to acknowledge that MAYBE, JUST MAYBE the guy getting paid to play defense just made a sensational play.

but this website blames the QB for everything

guy puts up a 91 QBR in a Super Bowl and comes 1 yard short a year after winning a Super Bowl a year after playing the game of his life in the playoffs his rookie year

...and is referred to as 'Russell Dilfer' by your dumbass

lmao

That play should have been called ONLY if Marshawn Lynch is hobbled on the sideline, and even then you give it to James Turbin. It was a classic case of a coach(es) thinking they were outsmarting everyone else.

they wanted the face of their franchise to get his Super Bowl MVP

it was the worst playcall in the history of the NFL

vomit inducing
