Russel Wilson hasn't proven he can carry an offense like Stafford does. And Seattle aren't big spenders in free agency which is where that money goes. Rice and Harvin were their big free agency/trade dollars but they didn't even play. And Avril was backloaded last year to this year, Bennett was on a cheaper one year deal. Lions could handle all those contracts and more. It's not solely about how much you spend on a QB that makes you a good team. Seattle could have still bombed on their draft picks even with Wilson cheap or got super injured on defense or had Lynch get hurt and not won the Super Bowl.
and the Lions couldn't even win 8 games.
