SEATTLE — The Vikings spoke this week about the importance of being able to contain Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson on the ground.
Wilson instead beat the Vikings with his arm Friday night as Minnesota’s pass defense endured a frustrating night.
“He’s able to create and get out of adverse situations and help receivers get open,” said Vikings cornerback Terence Newman. “He’s a guy that’s tough to bring down and is a very accurate passer and can throw it a long way.”
Wilson was 13 of 18 for 206 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions.
