This is why Wilson is the best leader. Instead of saying how good that throw is, he talks about how perfect Lockett is for making that catch👍 It’s a huge pleasure for hawks fan like us to have Russ on the team.

Us: He made an incredible throw...

Russ: He did a good job moving around, extending the play... and Tyler makes an amazing catch.

[altruisticlemur]

Okay so that means Jameis Winston is number 1. Surprised Lamar didn't make the list though.

[swthero]

Let’s all not forget when Russell got drafted everyone hated on him for his height now look where he is at now. True leader and a hall a famer.

[crazykenproductions]

There we go the respect Wilson deserves is finally here

[abombs_yt]

Nice to see Nathan Peterman at number 1! I’m very surprised Lamar didnt make the list tho he was mvp after all

[buddsmigglejibb]

Never received a single MVP vote. Absolutely insane!

[Mountain]

NFL Is darn right stupid, this is abousoulty crazy that this man don't go one mvp vote in his entire career, I know I might be bias cuz I'm a seahawks fan, but who agrees?

[chrisl]

Everytime Russ is running I hear him say “oh sh*t oh sh*t”

[noodle_heads]

“He’s like a chicken in a chicken house”

[ChrisPBacon-oxkh]

Russel: throws insane pass to the corner of the endzone

Everyone: who cares

Mahomes: does the same thing

Everyone: omg he’s soo good definitely the mvp no one can do that

[bamovailoa]

They really put Fitzmagic number 1 didn't they

Oh your QB sucks? Can’t relate.

[daviddegreat]

"If this was madden he'll have a 100 pocket awareness"

[wigsplitter]

Russ been beaten like a drum and the only thing close to injury was his leg being sprained and he still played

[bradorourke]

There it is, so Trubisky is #1. Crazy they left Lamar off the list

[fatherarenas]

“Lamar is making them plays “
“Russ is winning them big games”
Patrick Mahomes:Am I a joke to you

[kevincamacho]

Im Thankful for the the Wilson era in Seattle, i miss my qb

[bearcameron]

Damn Lebron James is #1, I’m really surprised Lamar didn’t make the list tho!
