Russell Wilson has proven me wrong about one thing. Before the season I argued that Wilson was at his best as part of a run-first offense. Seattle has not been a run-first offense. Wilson has had his best start ever.
To many this has been validation and the realization of “Let Russ Cook.” In a few paragraphs of text I have since edited out, I expanded on what I think about that particular slogan. Here’s a selection of analogies to give the gist of my thoughts while hopefully not derailing this post too much: a get rich quick scheme, the monorail to fix main street, Cathy Ames, a romantic partner who claims to love you while never wanting anything but to fix you, and video game football with injuries turned off.
