Another all time record for Russ and the team
Posted: Wed Aug 24, 2016 12:03 pmFrom the annual Football Outsiders Almanac:
And on the team front:
1. Russell Wilson holds the record for game-winning drives through a quarterback's first four seasons.
Wilson has brought the Seahawks back 18 times since the start of 2012. Pete Carroll constantly preaches "finish" and according to the Almanac, Wilson has done his part. When the team has faltered down the stretch, it's often been the defense that's had issues.
In the fourth quarter last year, Wilson posted a passer rating of 114.8, tops in the NFL. His nine to one touchdown to interception ratio in the fourth also ranked first.
And on the team front:
Overall, the Seahawks have been an incredibly difficult team to blow out. According to the Almanac, they've either led or been within one score in the fourth quarter of 88 consecutive games. That's the longest streak in NFL history.
