What I think he is failing to recognize here is that Seattle's success depends mainly on the defense and the run. Their passing offense is in the basement of the NFL rankings.
I'm not saying that he won't be an elite quarterback someday --- I really don't know. But what I do know is that signing him to mega multi million dollar contract right now would be a huge mistake.
Apparently, Seattle management has done their homework and have valued his worth at 1.5 million this year (which evidently isn't enough for him.)
Here are stats to back up my point:
Seattle's Rushing Rankings (out of 32 teams)
- Rushing yards per attempt - 1st
- Rushing play percentage - 2nd
- Rushing first down percentage - 1st
- Rushing yards percentage - 1st
- Overall rushing rank - 1st
Seattle's Defense Rankings (also out of 32 teams)
- Opponents yards per play - 1st
- Rushing yards per game - 3rd
- Passing yards per game - 1st
- Opponents rushing first down - 1st
- Opponents rushing touchdown - 4th
- Opponents yards per rushing attempts - 3rd
- Rushing first down percentage - 3rd
- Overall defense rank - 1st
Seattle's Passing Offense (out of 32 teams)
- Passing attempts per game -32nd
- Completions per game - 31st
- Incompletions per game - 2nd
- Completion percentage - 18th
- Passing yards per game - 28th
- Passing TD's per game - 28th
- Passing first downs per game - 29th
- Passing first down percentage - 32nd
- Overall passing offense rank - 28th
Hmmm...
