RANKING EVERY QUARTERBACK ON 2018 SCHEDULE

NUMBER 4 – RUSSELL WILSON

Now we get to the four toughest quarterbacks on the Chiefs’ schedule and kicking off that section is Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks. The Chiefs will play the Seahawks late in the season on Sunday Night Football in week 16.

That game will take place in Seattle and those fans are as rabid as Chiefs fans are, which should make for a difficult late season game. Wilson will have to carry the load more for the Seahawks this year, as the Legion of Boom is long gone.

Last year Wilson threw for a career high 34 touchdowns while throwing 11 interceptions and 3,983 yards while also rushing for 586 yards and adding three touchdowns with his legs. Wilson’s ability to take off with the football is another part of his game that makes him a dangerous quarterback.

If the Seahawks do beat the Chiefs in week 16, it’ll be because of Wilson’s quarterback experience. He’s one of the best signal callers in the league and will be tough to game plan against.

LAST TIME HE FACED KC: NOVEMBER 16, 2014 (Wilson went 20 of 32 for 178 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 71 yards. It was a close game, but the Chiefs reigned victorious)
