DET-SEA grades: Russell Wilson perfect against pressure in playoff victory

Seattle Seahawks 26, Detroit Lions 6

Here are the top-graded players and biggest storylines from Seattle’s Wild Card win over Detroit.

Quarterback grade: Russell Wilson, 81.7

Wilson perfect against pressure

The short passing game was netting the Seahawks almost nothing Saturday. On passes thrown within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage, Wilson went 16-for-18, but for only 97 yards. That’s just 6.1 yards per completion. On throws 10-plus yards downfield, though, Wilson was 7-of-9 for 127 yards. 149 of his 224 passing yards came prior to the catch in an impressive aerial display.
