ny33 - Okay, I'm assuming you've watched Russell Wilson only in the Playoffs. Assuming you live in WNY, why would you have studied him the whole season.
I live in the Pacific Northwest (Vancouver), am an ex-Buffalonian, and a life- long Bills fan. I can assure Russell Wilson IS the real deal. He won the job over two veterans in Preseason and has never looked back. He's super smart, very fast, feels pressure, makes accurate throws, is mentally and physically tough, and hates to lose. Ask opposing players whether his 5'11" stature is a problem? The answer would be, no. (The only problem may be, he's not on 'their' team!)
This kid is bigger than Doug Flutie (remember him?) and has intangibles off the chart. Will be a long time starter for the Seahawks and, am betting, will be a long term Playoff performer.
