Flynn is not the QB of the present or future in Seattle as Badger rookie QB Russell Wilson has looked fantastic and tonight seems to have solidified the starting QB position in Seattle. Another impressive rookie QB.
How bout that.

Wilson leads Seahawks to 44-14 win over Chiefs
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Russell Wilson made the most of his first chance to start for Seattle.
The rookie quarterback threw for 185 yards and two touchdowns in a just under three quarters of work Friday night, leading the Seahawks to a 44-14 rout of the Kansas City Chiefs .
The third-round draft pick has been competing for the No. 1 job with Matt Flynn , the former Green Bay backup who signed in the offseason. Wilson had impressed in the second half of preseason wins over Tennessee and Denver, but was downright dazzling in his first NFL start.
When he wasn't hooking up with one of his wide receivers or handing off to Robert Turbin , who started in place of injured Marshawn Lynch , the savvy Wilson was gouging the Chiefs for big gains on the ground. He scrambled twice for 58 yards, both times helping to set up scores.
