Russell Wilson completed 24-of-36 passes for 385 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception and added seven rushes for 60 yards and a third score only to see the Seahawks fall 30-28 to the Falcons in the Divisional round of the playoffs.

Wilson entered the game as the first rookie since the merger to lead three victories in the final two minutes or overtime, and nearly had a fourth after a brilliant touchdown drive to take the lead with 31 seconds remaining. After falling behind 20-0 at the half, Wilson started the next frame 10-of-10 for 185 yards and two touchdowns, nearly joining Frank Reich in history while making a series of big throws in the clutch. The performance resulted in the second-highest Total QBR rating (86.4) ever recorded in a loss. Coach Pete Carroll called Wilson an "amazing football player" after the game while expressing unbridled optimism about the state of his franchise with Wilson leading the charge.

Russell Wilson completed 15-of-26 passes for 187 yards and a touchdown and added eight rushes for 67 yards versus the Redskins in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.

Wilson was shaky against Jim Haslett's blitzes early on and ended up taking five sacks on the afternoon. Although he made a bigger impact with his legs than his arm, Wilson made key blocks on Marshawn Lynch runs and hit Zach Miller for a crucial 22-yard pass play on third down to set up the go-ahead touchdown. Wilson has a tougher matchup next week against Mike Nolan's secondary that gave both Peyton and Eli Manning their worst games of the season.

Russell Wilson completed 15-of-19 passes for 250 yards and one touchdown while also adding 58 yards and another touchdown on ten carries in Seattle's Week 17, 20-13 win over the Rams.

Wilson capped off his strong rookie regular season by completing 78.9 percent of his passes, which is good for a season-best. His passing score went to fullback Michael Robinson on a dump-off from ten yards out in the third quarter. Wilson's one-yard rushing touchdown came after Marshawn Lynch's five-yard score was denied. Wilson wraps up his rookie season with a 64.1 completion percentage for 3,118 yards, 26 touchdowns, and ten interceptions. He added 489 yards and four touchdowns on the ground. Seattle will travel to Dallas or Washington next week as the No. 5 seed in the NFC playoff picture.

Russell Wilson was superb in Seattle's 42-13 Week 16 drubbing of the 49ers, completing 15-of-21 passes for 171 yards, four touchdowns and one interception.

He added six scrambles for 29 yards. On a day where Robert Griffin III and Andrew Luck continued to buffer their Offensive Rookie of the Year r‚sum‚s, Wilson made a statement of his own, keeping the 49ers' vaunted defense off-balance all evening. Despite strong coverage from the Niners throughout, Wilson went 4-for-4 on red-zone scoring opportunities, and guided Seattle to an eye-popping 11-of-13 on third-down conversions. Although he never popped a big run, he extended plays all night with his feet. Wilson's pick came on a tipped ball on a screen. It would have been a strikingly poised and precise performance for any quarterback, let alone a rookie. Wilson will get the Rams in Week 17, who held him to perhaps his poorest performance of the season in Week 4.

Russell Wilson completed 23-of-37 passes for 293 yards and two touchdowns as the Seahawks defeated the Bears in overtime of Week 13, 23-17.

He tacked on 71 rushing yards on nine scrambles in the kind of fantasy game Wilson will be capable of moving forward should the Seahawks loosen his leash and let him start slinging it around the yard a bit. Wilson was simply fantastic in the upset of Chicago, engineering a 97-yard touchdown drive to take a late lead, and the game-winning TD drive in overtime. Wilson has tremendous athleticism and plenty of arm strength, and he'll continue to be an upside QB2 in fantasy leagues down the stretch. Wilson is now on pace for a 24:10 TD-to-INT ratio and 7.39 YPA.

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll suggested the offense doesn't "have any restrictions now."

"I think (Russell Wilson) has proven that he is ready to go, and I have felt like this for about a month... we've seen him just continue to do really good things. There's no reason not to count on him to continue to do that," said Carroll. Coach Carroll has always seen things through rose-colored glasses, but this shouldn't translate to his team throwing the ball any more than they do now. Seattle is still one of the most run-heavy offenses in the league, but the rookie Wilson has shown solid development. He's no more than a QB2 during a good week.

Russell Wilson completed 21-of-27 passes for 224 yards with two touchdowns and scrambled five times for 38 yards in the Seahawks' Week 12 loss to the Dolphins.

Wilson was spectacular. Showing impeccable mechanics in the pocket and magically evading the pass rush, he did more than enough to lead his team to a win. The running game just couldn't give him any help. He now has seven touchdown passes and no picks in his last three games, but is averaging just 195.0 passing yards per game during that span. He's just a weak QB2 against the Bears' dominant pass defense in Week 13.

Russell Wilson completed 12-of-19 passes for 188 yards and two touchdowns as the Seahawks manhandled the Jets in Week 10.

He also scrambled seven times for 34 yards. Wilson now has a 10:2 TD-to-INT ratio over his last five games. The Seahawks have been intent on keeping his leash short in terms of pass attempts and overall freedom in the offense, but it might be time to give Wilson added rope moving forward. He's certainly got as impressive deep-ball accuracy as any rookie quarterback this season. Wilson is worth keeping through Seattle's Week 11 bye as a QB2 in standard leagues and stretch-run starter in two-quarterback systems.

Jets senior personnel executive Terry Bradway adamantly wanted to draft Russell Wilson in April, to the point that Wilson became known as "Russell Bradway" around Jets headquarters in the early spring.

The news comes via Jets defensive coordinator Mike Pettine, so it's not rumor. It's a fact. "We knew about him and liked him," Pettine said. "He's proving he's a complete quarterback. I think the league has been taken aback by how poised this rookie quarterback class is, and he's no different. He does not look out of place out there." It's fair to wonder whether the Jets would have drafted Wilson had they not traded for Tim Tebow.
