So I guess this makes him a better qb than Rodgers or Favre with this logic. Come on man you better than that.

actually it doesn't follow that logic at all

hell yeah he in trouble....the only thing that stopped wilson from being a 1st round pick was his height. He is more talented then flynn


yeah flynn only has the GB record for yards in a game against a playoff team

All that shows is that you can't say a rookie QB is more talented because of 1) what he did in college in a weak Big 10/ACC conference 2) what he's done in 1 half of football in an NFL preseason game, over a guy who is a 4 year NFL vet, all as backup to arguably the best QB in the league, and has had a game in which he set Packers records against a playoff team and in another start thrown for 251 yards and 3 TDs against the New England Patriots in 2010. I think it's ignorant to say Russell Wilson is more talented than Flynn right now. And stating the records he set does not follow the logic that he must be better than Aaron Rogers and Brett Favre. It follows the logic that he's proven much more than Russell Wilson has to this point.

Also, another knock n Wilson going into the draft was the fact he'd never been a pocket QB. How many successful option QBs have we seen fail at the next level? plenty. Sure his height was an issue, but that wasn't the only reason he wasn't a 1st round pick.
