SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Minnesota Vikings

Russell Wilson completed a season-low 11 passes on a season-low 17 pass attempts last week against the Niners. Bad fantasy week? Not really. Four of those 11 completions were for touchdowns. For the second straight week, he averaged 10.9 yards per pass attempt. Wilson and the Seahawks passing game has been very good in recent weeks.

The 'Hawks will face a tough Minnesota pass defense that is ranked seventh in aFPA to quarterbacks. We expect Seattle to really try to ride the running game. This might limit Wilson's pass attempts to around 20 again and we can't expect him to throw four touchdown passes every week. Keep Wilson on the bench as a solid QB2 for Week 14.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. San Francisco 49ers

Russell Wilson has had almost identical numbers the past two weeks throwing the ball an average of 31 times and throwing for two touchdowns. He has been very steady in 2018 even though his overall numbers might be down slightly. With his top receivers healthy, the Seahawks passing game has been very efficient.

Wilson will face division rival San Francisco who is ranked 22nd in aFPA to quarterbacks. He has had mixed results against the Niners but has never thrown for more 260 yards against them. He has 17 career touchdowns compared to eight interceptions. With the favorable matchup, Wilson is a strong start for Week 13 as a solid QB1.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Carolina Panthers

Russell Wilson has been very accurate this season, but his passing yards have been down due to the fact he is going with a shorter passing game to help an offensive line that has struggled with protection. Wilson has thrown at least two touchdown passes every game since Week 4. He also only has five interceptions this season.

Wilson will face the Panthers whose defense has struggled in recent games. They are ranked 24th in aFPA to quarterbacks in 2018. However, this game is in Carolina and we expect the Panthers to play with more desperation. Wilson only rates a high-end QB2 for Week 12 and probably should remain on your bench.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Green Bay Packers

It was a mixed bag for Russell Wilson last Sunday against LA. Yes, he did throw three touchdowns without an interception and he rushed for a season-high 92 yards, twice as much as his previous high. However, he did fumble once and only threw for 176 yards which was his second-lowest total of the season.

Wilson and the Seahawks have a short week and will face the Packers who are 11th in aFPA to quarterbacks. He is playing his best football right now and has healthy weapons around him. We expect a good performance in prime time so Wilson is rated a solid QB1 for the first time since then September. Start him against Green Bay.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Los Angeles Rams

Russell Wilson threw for a season-high 39 passes and that produced 235 passing yards and two touchdowns. But things seemed off during the game with the passing attack. It has been hard to predict Wilson in 2018 as he seems to have been all over the map with his weekly stats.

Wilson will face a Rams defense that is 11th in aFPA to quarterbacks. In his career, Wilson has had good numbers against the Rams, throwing 17 touchdowns in 13 games while throwing eight picks. This time around, keep Wilson on the bench as he only ranks a mid-range QB2 for Week 10.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Russell Wilson completed 82 percent of his passes last week against Detroit on only 17 passes, but he averaged 14.6 yards per attempt. Add three touchdowns to his numbers and it was his best fantasy week of the season. Wilson had taken a step back from his numbers in recent years but this might be a sign he is getting back on track.

Wilson will face the Chargers who are ranked 23rd in aFPA to quarterbacks so this is a good matchup for him at home. Wilson has earned a spot back in the top 10 fantasy quarterbacks and should definitely be in your lineup as a QB1 for Week 9.

SEA QB Russell Wilson - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Detroit Lions

Coming off the bye week, Russell Wilson's overall numbers are down this season, but he still has been efficient. In his last two games before the bye, he threw six touchdowns and only one interception. The biggest issue has been his offensive line and protection, but it has been better in recent weeks.

Wilson will face a Lions defense that is 19th in aFPA to quarterbacks. Even with a favorable matchup and coming off the bye, Wilson only rates a QB2 for Week 8 as the overall numbers still haven't been good enough.
