Russell Wilson’s best games: No. 6: November 22, 2015, vs. San Francisco 49ers

Following a difficult home loss to the Arizona Cardinals, Wilson bounced back by starting one of the best three-game stretches of his entire career. Another one of those games is also on this list, a little bit higher up.

In this game against the divisional rival Niners, Wilson completed 24-of-29 passes for 260 yards and three touchdowns as the Seahawks got a big 29-13 win at home.

Russell Wilson’s best games: No. 5: October 28, 2018, at Detroit Lions

The numbers for this game are not eye-popping. But Wilson played an efficient, mistake-free game on the road and the Seahawks earned a 14-point win over the Lions.

Wilson completed just 14-of-17 passes for 248 yards and three touchdowns. But he finished the game with a 158.3 QB rating and though the QB rating formula is one of the more difficult to understand in all of sports, a 158.3 rating is perfect and the absolute highest that a quarterback can get for a game.

Russell Wilson’s best games: No. 4: September 27, 2020, vs. Dallas Cowboys

The Seahawks started the 2020 season 5-0 and this was the third game of that run. The Cowboys came to the Pacific Northwest and went blow for blow with Seattle but in the end, Wilson was the difference.

Russ passes for 315 yards on the day but he tossed five touchdown passes, matching a career-high in that department. Three of those went to Tyler Lockett and the Seahawks survived the shootout, beating the Cowboys 38-31.
