I'm hoping it's not flexed. Just going to be colder and nastier in Seattle.

I don't want to see another primetime game against Seattle. RW is a primetime machine.

And the media will really make it all about him. It was disgusting what they did when we last played and we were at home.

He is so dangerous in those prime time games, night games, end of year huge games, playoff atmosphere and especially at home.

In those games Russell Wilson must have like a .995 record. That's what the eyeball test says anyway.

The media will make it all about Wilson because he's all Seattle has. Without him where would they be. Love him or hate him but he keeps coming up with the kind of rabbit out of the hat plays that the media loves. He's maybe the best I've ever seen at keeping a play alive while still looking deep downfield for an open receiver and then putting it right on target. Most QB's look for a short or mid range guy when they scramble but he is always looking for the bomb.

He is accurate as hell on that bomb which makes him dangerous. It seems the more clutch the moment the better and more dangerous he is. RW is very frustrating to play against.

NFL Pick 'em

The only time the NFL didn't flex a game to SNF in week 17 was due to no games having any playoff implications. Otherwise they do it every year. There was a stretch where the mediocre NFC East was won on a play in game for 2-3 years in a row on SNF week 17
