He has been Mr. Seahawk.  He has been maybe the 2nd winningest QB since he's been in the league.

He has won as many Super Bowls as Brees and Rodgers, but has been to more.  He accomplished this with a fraction of the offensive help Brees and Rodgers had.

Wilson had way more help than Brees or Rodgers. That Seattle defense will have multiple HOF's and some more that may have jersey's retired in Seattle when it is all said and done. Plus Lynch has an argument for jersey retirement for Seattle.

Wilson had more DEFENSIVE help than those guys, although the past couple of years, the Saints have had a good defense.

Offensively?

Not close.

Wilson didn't have any receivers close to say Michael Thomas or Marques Colston.  Over the course of his career, Aaron Rodgers had the likes of Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, Jordy Nelson.  Only Doug Baldwin made the Pro bowl for Seattle with Wilson, and that was just within the last three years.

While Max Unger was good, he was never in Jahri Evans' or Carl Nicks' class.


The lack of offensive weapons and the coaching emphasis on the running game results in the stats that suggest he isn't worth it.

Wilson is considerably younger than either of those guys, has been to more Super Bowls than either of those guys.  For goodness sake, he accounted for 37 of the team's 38 TDs in 2017!  Who does that?!?
