Vikings should look to contain Russell Wilson, minimize Seattle's big plays

I love Seattle. It has much of what San Francisco offers, in a smaller, easier-to-navigate setting.

The Mariners play in the best retractable-roof ballpark in America, and the Seahawks play in what might be the loudest outdoor stadium in America, and both are walking distance from downtown and Pike Place Market (the place where they throw the fish.)

This is a tough place to play, as you know, and while Pete Carroll and a dedicated fan base deserve much of the credit for that, I believe Russell Wilson deserves most of it.

When you watch Wilson, you are watching one of the great quarterbacks in NFL history, a combination of Fran Tarkenton and Patrick Mahomes.
