Quote:I don't like this comparison at all. The only things they have in common is they are both black and seem to be mature beyond their years. Teddy has the potential to be a top 5 qb in this league, Wilsons ceiling isnt even close. Rodgers and Luck would be better comparisons and make a lot more sense.

 

I don't think race was the motive for the comparision. I think they compare them because of the maturity and also their decision making on the field. Russell Wilson if he continues they way he has will be a better QB than Luck or RG3. Last year he threw for over 3K yards, completed more than 64% of his passes, and had 26TDs - 10 ints. The only other rookie QB to ever throw that many TDs was Peyton Manning (and he had 28 INTS his rookie year). Wilson is a legit QB so far, and this year is starting off great as well.
