Wilson may have better physical tools, but Flynn's are good enough to win with, and his mental side of the game is much stronger.
T-Jax sucks and should get cut to stop stealing Flynn's reps. |
How do you figure his mental game is much stronger? Wilson is younger and has more football starts in his life than Flynn. Flynn had 1 starting year in college and 2 starts in the NFL

| Matt Flynn and it's not even close. People over estimate physical tools. Playing QB ain't about being Jamarcus Russell, it's about being Tom Brady. Wilson will look like a fish out of water when the 49ers defense is all over him. Flynn has been an NFL QB for years. He knows what it takes. He has so much more experience. And it's not like Wilson is very talented in his own right. He was a 3rd round QB for a reason. I can't believe people are saying he even has a good physical skill set. He is 5-11. Are you kidding? 5-11? |

why do you say that? Wilson has more upside |
So why did they spent a serious chunk of cash on Flynn? |
He has 10 million guranteed which is not starter money. Nice try tho haha. If they truly thought 100% that Flynn was the guy, why did they select Wilson so early in the draft? They couldve got Flynn a receiver |
Logic fail on your part. The Packers spent a 2nd round pick and a 7th round pick the year Rodgers took over even though he was the NO DOUBT starter. The Redskins spend a 4th rounder on Cousins even though they gave up a kings ransom for RGIII. Teams draft based on value, not needs. At least good teams do.
As for the question, Jackson should not be starting on a team with guys like Flynn and Wilson. Wilson is a wildcard but i've watched Flynn every year in the NFL and would be shocked if he isn't starting.

You're argument is not very strong. Flynn has been on the bench for years haha. He is essentially still a young QB

I knew who started this thread before looking at the username.
Matt Flynn is definitely the answer for now.
Wilson could be a top 20 QB (which honestly is setting the bar low for him) if he learns how to pass consistently without the aid of play-action/roll out passes.
TJack should be released before he screw things up even more for Seattle. |

Flynn was doing what many QB's do. They ride the bench and learn. Do you realize that your statement supports my arguement. Flynn riding the bench was good for his development. Wilson is Just Another Guy. A guy that nobody really wanted. |

Not true at all. One of my friends' dad is Will Lewis,President of the Seahawks. He told me that the Seahawks said that if they didnt get Wilson the draft would be a failure. They planned on taking Wilson in the 3rd. It wasnt "oh we're gonna select the best player available"

So a guy that has been in NFL training camps and NFL practices and has shined in his only 2 starts in the NFL while breaking single game records his 2nd start is less prepared then a rookie that has never even seen an NFL game yet? Get out of here with that garbage. I love Wilsons and long term, could be the Seahawks guy but this year, you give the keys to Flynn and roll with it because he's ready for the spot light. He's spent 4 seasons on an NFL team preparing to be the guy and has shown he's ready in his first 2 career starts.

Thats what early round QBs used to do. Just because late round picks like Hasselbeck and Brady developed into all pros, doesnt mean that is the norm

Did i say his 2 starts were equal to a rookie? or did I say he is essentially a young qb? haha you have to remember he isnt on green bay anymore. he is on a new team learning a new offense with 2 starts under his belt. that is a young qb

If you have ever watched the Seahawks you would know that their offense is full of play action passes and plays where a mobile QB can run if needed haha. Maybe you wouldnt of noticed the plays that played to a mobile qb's strength only cuz tjax is awful and held the ball too long LMAO

No Wilson does not have 1st round talent. My reasoning is that he's just not good. |

Doesn't matter. Wilson hasn't proven he can make plays consistently without the aid of play action. Even if the Seahawks' offense uses a lot of play action, Wilson will still need to improve on his all around game (shotgun, under center w/o play action) before he can be a good starting QB.
He's just not ready. |

Seattle should start Flynn and see what he has. They invested a good amount of money in him and they should see if he is able to be the present and the future at the position. Starting Wilson doesn't seem very logical, he's a rookie with plenty of time to show what he has down the line if Flynn falters. The obvious exception here is if Wilson vastly outplays Flynn during camp and in the preseason.
