Monday’s Broncos-Seahawks game is a reminder that Russell Wilson deserved better from Seattle

Russell Wilson is the greatest quarterback in Seahawks’ history by almost every measure. Not only is Wilson No. 1 in most of the franchise’s relevant passing statistics (yards, touchdowns, passer rating, completion percentage, etc.), he’s the only Seattle quarterback ever to win a Super Bowl. If someone told me the nine-time Pro Bowler was the face of a truly golden era in Seahawks football over the last decade, I’d find it hard to argue with.

Yet, despite all the accolades, records, and memorable moments, it never felt like the Seahawks entirely appreciated the talent they had in Wilson. Their apparent divide looms large as Wilson makes his return to Seattle (+6.5) on Monday Night Football in a Broncos uniform tonight.
