I did some research on ESPN - just LOOK at the amazing Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior years or Russell and Andrew and Cam compared to certain future Hall of Famers.

32 TD's and 9 INT

93.9 QB Rating
63.7 completion %

This was his 11th year too!

BUT, he's done for this year, so it's all meaningless! :)

Lets extrapolate what wilson's 11th season may be like, if he changes to the degree of ben's.

Russell Wilson's 2025 Season:

Projected Rating: 105.xx
TD: 39
INT: 8
Completion: 64%
Yards: 5143 yards

Projected stats, career, after 11th season:

Passer rating: 98.6
TD: 264
INT: 95
Completion: 64%
Yards 36,483
SB Trophies:
And that is if Russell NEVER improves, but continues to average his current level of play.

As Joe Buck says...Russell Wilson is LETHAL on the move AND when he decides to throw it.


Russell Wilson's Playoff performance:
NFC Championship 2013
16/25, 215yards, 64.0% 1TD, 0INT, Ratng: 104.6

Superbowl 2013
18/25, 206yards,, 72.0%, 2TD, 0INT, Rating: 123.1 (Third best rating since 1995 [S.Young/J.Flacco])

Russell is the NFL Career Playoffs Passer Rating Leader (although with only 6 games played; has time to have worse games)

Ben Roethlisberger
AFC Championship 2005
21/29, 275yards, 72.4%, 2TD, 0INT, Rating: 124.9

Superbowl 2005
9/21, 123yards, 42.9%, 0TD, 2 INT, Rating:22.6 (Worst rating in Superbowl history, win OR loss. Next lowest-rating Winner: J.Elway, SB 32 vs Packers)
