My Vote for Rookie Of The Year goes to Russell Wilson. How can it not? He led his team on a improbable run in which they should be sitting in the NFC Championship game had it not been the coach trying to freeze Atlanta's kicker giving him a second chance in which he made it.
But we all have this decision to make. This was mine. What is yours? You can vote at NFL.com through
9 p.m. EST on Tuesday, January 29 to determine the 2012 Pepsi Max NFL Rookie of the Year. The 2012 Pepsi Max NFL Rookie of the Year award will be announced on February 2, 9-11 p.m. EST on CBS.
Wilson was Selected in the third round out of Wisconsin, nobody gave him much of a chance except Pete Carroll who liked what he saw in the preseason and then handed him the full time job on opening day despite having spent a ton of money on another QB in free agency. He has arm and leg ability which helped him lead Seattle to11 wins and back into the playoffs. He finished his incredible regular season throwing for 3,118 yards, 26 touchdowns and had a 100.0 passer rating, which placed him as 4th best in the NFL. As for being nominated for Rookie Of The Week, he was nominated 8 times and only one once. Which I think a few times he should have gotten the vote.
Who do you think will be rookie of the year?
He wouldn't have got that far if RG111 had been healthy, so RG111 is Rookie of Year
