Seattle is starting Wilson in the next pre-season. I know it is just pre-season, but this is typically an important game for the first stringers.

seems that way. I like most don't buy into pre-season at all but the vibe up there seems to want Russell Wilson


which I don't get. But ok

it seems that coach Pete Carroll is acknowledging that the third round draft pick from Wisconsin might give the Seahawks the best chance to win in 2012.
with statements like this you can tell the guy is just speculating and giving his "expert opinion".

I really don't care.

Flynn will get more than a fair chance in Seattle.

No worries, they are only trying to get Wilson PT in case Flynn gets injured.

Quaterbacks from LSU named Matt remind Pete Carroll that he did not actually win the national championship in 2003, so he is exacting revenge

27 million over three years? I wish I was in trouble.

Pete Carrol has already screwed Matt Flynn. The quarterback is the leader of the franchise. Flynn was paid $27 million to come in and be that guy. But from day 1 Pete Carrol has not given the team over to Flynn. Flynn can't be expected to lead the team when the head coach keeps dangling his job over to a rookie that played one good half of exhibition football against people trying to make a team. (I argued a little different for Jarrett Lee because he is just trying to make the team, not be a starter) Matt Flynn's first exhibition game he played pretty darn well. I think he completed his first 7 passes. The starters only played about 3 series and that was it. If Terrell Owens doesn't drop a touchdown pass in his belly in game 2, Flynn's numbers from that game aren't so bad.

I hope Russell Wilson breaks his leg and when Pete Carrol turns to Flynn, Matt just says, "Nah, I've got my $27 million, put in Tavaris Jackson."

(I know that all of Flynn's money isn't guaranteed, but the point is he's getting screwed badly here)

Wilson has outplayed Flynn in every category this preseason. Flynn looked terrible against the Broncos. He will be lucky if he holds onto starting job.

It's the 4th preseason game. They are sitting Flynn to keep him from getting injured. He will be the starter.

Yes he's in trouble. He has Pete Carroll as his coach and a team of retreads around him. He would have been better off signing a one year deal to stay in Green Bay.
