2 Duds and 2 Studs from 20-10 loss to Rams
1 min read
Dating back to last season, Russell Wilson is turning into the NFL’s version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. At his peak Wilson is unquestionably among the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. When he stumbles, he can appear indistinguishable from the lower tier of signal callers.
Regrettably, Wilson looked like the latter on Tuesday. Missing his top target in Tyler Lockett, Wilson completed 17-of-31 passes for 156 yards, no touchdowns and one interception. It is the sixth time in his career he has failed to find the end zone against the Rams.
Seattle’s last, best opportunity to get back in the game was a incomplete pass to DK Metcalf, who torched his old foe in cornerback Jalen Ramsey. Instead of a usual dart, which would have likely gone for a touchdown, the ball was lofted too long, allowing Ramsey to knock it away at the last second.
Wilson has dealt with a major finger injury to his throwing hand this year, but unfortunately his wild inconsistency is becoming a more common and concerning trend.
