Where did he equate a team's win-loss record to the QB?

In his previous statement when he stated Luck's win loss record.

I think Luck is a very good quarterback but I find it silly that his fanboys get so upset at any criticism. I've heard Peyton Manning take tremendous amounts of criticism, I've even heard criticism of Brady's play this year, and more recently, Russell Wilson has taken heat. Its apparently ok to criticize them, but God forbid if anyone points out anything negative about Luck.

I really don't think he was equating the Colt's win-loss record 100% to Andrew Luck like you're trying to infer.

You phrase this like Russell Wilson is something special? He is 16th in passing yards and had 2 300 games this year. Averages around 209 yds a game. IMO he is a gimmick QB with a short career span. Any QB relying so much on his legs won't be around long be it Defenses figuring it out, him taking a big hit or father time catching up with him.

Passing yardage is the most overrated stat of all. Passing efficiency is more important. Wilson had a QB rating of 100 in each of his first two years. Don't know how many QBs have done that. Not very many.

Russell Wilson is special! He's a winner.
He's the #1 QB in the NFL on someone's list.

i don't dislike wilson at all. i was only talking about the list.

and this is another example of the qb getting too much credit for a good run. a team has to put it all together to be a consistent top team. a good qb is a part of it, but not all of it. and good teams can do well in spite of a not so good qb. hell, everyone knows denver was loaded-how else explain them making the playoffs with tim tebow?!



and now super bowl champ....getting ahead of yourself a bit.

BTW, how many hard hits has this "one hit wonder" taken? Not many. Unlike some, he knows how to slide. Many of his runs are scrambles, not designed runs. Wilson is smart, and will be a factor in the league for a number of years.

He will age well. Because he does not get hit and he is not run first. He also has a cannon arm. He proved he is the best in the business.
