Week 7 might not have been a fluke for Russell Wilson. In two games with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Wilson has played like with a renewed sense of vigor. He’s not been perfect, but he’s elevated this offense. There are still kinks that need worked out, but he looked improved this week.
“He didn’t need to warm up to it, little less rust than the week before,” coach Mike Tomlin said after Steelers 26-18 win over the New York Giants via the team’s YouTube channel. “But I’m not surprised by his capabilities.”
Wilson is a veteran and a Super Bowl champion, but he hasn’t been the same player over the last few years.
