If you ask Bill Belichick, one of the keys to Sunday for the Pittsburgh Steelers is going to be generating explosive plays in the passing game against the Philadelphia Eagles. It’s not going to be easy with WR George Pickens out with a hamstring injury, but if anybody can make it happen, it’s QB Russell Wilson.
“Nobody better throwing ’em than Russell Wilson,” Belichick said via his Coach podcast on Spotify. “Guy’s got a great touch on the deep ball.”
It’s been a signature trait of Wilson’s for over a decade in the league now to the point where there’s a name for his deep passes.
