Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson continues to prove he’s the clear-cut candidate for this year’s Most Valuable Player after displaying his magic in prime time.
Against the 49ers Week 10 on the national stage, Wilson finished the night completing 24 of 34 passes attempted for 232 yards and a touchdown. While he did throw his second interception of the season, he was unstoppable on the ground, posting six carries for 53 yards while escaping some serious pressure.
According to ESPN Stats & Info, Wilson is now 6-0 in his career against teams that are at least eight games above .500.

With everything on the line and the clock ticking down in overtime, Wilson led the Seahawks on their game-winning drive, which kicker Jason Myers finished off with his 42-yard field goal to seal the victory.
With the win, the Seahawks advance 8-2 on the year and the 49ers are no longer the league’s only unbeaten team.
Seattle has a bye week to rest and recover before battling the Eagles Nov. 24.
