We all witnessed what happened in the Broncos game the other night, Russell Wilson has commented on the decision to attempt the 64-yard field goal rather than go for it.
"I believe in Coach Hackett,” Wilson said. “I believe in what we’re doing. Believe in everything, and any time you can try to find a way to make a play on fourth and five, that’s great too.
“Also, I don’t think it was the wrong decision. I think he [McManus] can make it. Obviously hindsight he didn’t make it, but we were in that situation again I wouldn’t doubt whatever he [Hackett] decided.”
Wilson explained that McManus’ target was the 46-yard yard line on the left hash, and that’s exactly where the Broncos ended up.
“We got it there; unfortunately didn’t go in. I think he has the leg for it for sure. Just went a little left.”

Not a chance Wilson is going to say otherwise, the bottom line is it was a stupid decision and everyone knows it.
Stupid decision indeed, wikipedia has already made the necessary update to his info page.
