RUSSELL WILSON IS THE REAL DEAL
There is nothing to say that has not already been said but given Wilson’s weekly recording performances it would be a travesty not to continue beating the Wilson for MVP Chant.

Wilson threw to six different receivers and three of the five touchdowns were thrown to three different receivers. 13 of Wilson’s 29 pass receptions were to Tyler Lockett who finished the with 152 yards and 2 touchdowns.
DK METCALF HAS A CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER
Rookie Dk Metcalf had another outstanding game and continues to prove that he is one of the top deep threat receivers in the NFL despite being a rookie. The 2019 2nd round draft has had an attitude since he dropped from the first to second round because of whispers regarding his route running abilities. On Sunday Metcalf had no issues running routes past a Tampa Bay defense that played man to man defense on him.
Metcalf finished Sunday’s game with six receptions for 123 yards and one touchdown.
TYLER LOCKETT KEEPS GETTING BETTER WITH EACH GAME
