The Rams beat the Seahawks on Sunday in overtime during an exciting game to kick off the NFL season. But before the game ever kicked off, Russell Wilson decided to make a bold prediction:
Rams joyfully remind Russell Wilson of unfortunate pregame tweet
Get out the recovery water.
1-0. #GoHawks
— Russell Wilson (@DangeRussWilson) September 12, 2015 And after the game, the Rams were more than happy to remind him of his words:
Hey @DangeRussWilson, don't delete this... https://t.co/MJmLa9lUDW
— St. Louis Rams (@STLouisRams) September 13, 2015 Well done, Rams. And of course, the rest of the internet was there too:

— Rampage Rams Mascot (@STLRampage) September 12, 2015 After the game, Wilson clarified some on Twitter, saying it’s Seattle’s goal to go 1-0 every week. He’s tweeted the same thing a number of times throughout his career and it was less of a prediction and more of a mentality. That didn’t keep the Rams and their fans from enjoying it. Wide receiver Benny Cunningham may have been referencing Wilson as he shouted “retweet that!” after the game:
Listen to @BennyCunningham "1-0, baby. Retweet that!" pic.twitter.com/0YhASJZU6C
— St. Louis Rams (@STLouisRams) September 13, 2015 Wilson, ever the diplomat, had this to say:
Our goal is to go 1-0 every week. We fell a little short today, but looking forward to getting back to work! #GoHawks
