For the first time in about 10 years, the Seahawks will not have Russell Wilson as it's starting quarterback. The engine behind the Seahawks success including a Super Bowl title and an almost annual appearence in post seasons, will be out for probably 6 weeks.
Wilson had started every regular season game since joining the franchise, defying an amazing number of brutal sacks that he had taken through the years.
His 149 consecutive starts is 6th amongst all NFL quarterbacks. Geno Smith, who looked impressive at times in the Seahawks loss to the Rams, will guide the team in Wilson's absence.
He needs a break anyway and that gives us a chance to try Geno's pizza.
ReplyDeleteThe Flying Fickle Finger of Fate Award goes to Russell.
