Seahawks' Russell Wilson throws for 322 yards and 4 touchdowns in Week 1 win against Falcons
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson completed 31 of 35 attempts for 322 yards and 4 touchdowns, adding 29 rushing yards in a 38-25 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1.
What It Means:
Wilson came out cooking against the Falcons, throwing two touchdowns to Chris Carson in the first half before connecting with D.K. Metcalf and Greg Olsen in the third quarter. Usually required to air it out to save his team in the fourth quarter, Wilson and the Seahawks got ahead early in this one and never looked back. Next up for Wilson and Seattle is a Week 2 meeting with the New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football.
Wilson scored 31.78 FanDuel points in Week 1, the most of any quarterback on the early slate of games, and 11.78 more than his Week 1 projection of 20.0 FanDuel points. Our models expect Wilson to score 18.28 FanDuel points against New England in Week 2.
