Summary
With Russell Wilson's recent retirement announced, we want to celebrate his Seattle Seahawks legacy, from the "F" draft grade of his 2012 draft class to the defining moments that made Seattle a Super Bowl champion for the first time. We highlight seven iconic plays: rookie-year scrambles vs. the 49ers and Patriots, the 2017 double-pirouette strike to Doug Baldwin, pinpoint touchdowns to Tyler Lockett, the frigid 2015 playoff vs. Minnesota, and the overtime dagger to Jermaine Kearse in the 2014 NFC Championship. The Hall of Fame argument focuses on how he stacks up against other dual threat inductees: John Elway, Fran Tarkenton and Steve Young.
Wilson's elite efficiency, comeback resume and status as the only NFL quarterback to achieve a 40,000/5,000 passing-rushing milestone put him in elite company amony other HOF quarterbacks. In the second half of the show we get into the off-field lore that also defined his career. We also take a look at how Wilson's success changed the opportunities for shorter quarterbacks in the NFL.

| 0:33.8 | But with the announcement of the truly great |
| 0:37.4 | Russell Wilson retiring, we felt like it was only apropos that we made it number 503. |

| 0:56.1 | And I want to start this episode with, I love this catficking guy. |
| 1:01.5 | That's my quarterback, man. |
| 1:03.4 | Like, it was so much fun going back through in kind of reliving and rediscovering some of the greatest parts of having somebody like Russell Wilson as your quarterback. |
| 1:15.3 | It's fun, too, because some of the greatest parts are also great moments that some people may describe as corny moments. |
| 1:23.6 | And I thought by going with your idea of making it episode 503, it honored that part of |
| 1:31.0 | Russell Wilson as well, because we don't just have to honor the great play. We could also honor |
| 1:35.2 | some of the great moments off the field, and there were plenty of those two. It's a big time career |
| 1:42.0 | for Russell Wilson, no doubt about it. |
| 1:44.6 | And I think this is going to be a great episode, Brandon, because I know that I was doing some preparation. |
