NFL Bets – Russell Wilson’s Impact On Seattle Seahawks Season

• Russell Wilson has season totals of 4250.5 yards and 33.5 touchdowns set for the upcoming season.
• The Seattle Seahawks will be looking to secure their 10th season with 10+ wins over the last 11 years.
• Seattle has (-160) odds to have OVER 9.5 wins and a betting line of (-130) to make it to the postseason.

SEATTLE – The Seattle Seahawks have been surpassing all odds for as long as QB Russell Wilson has been able to lead them. His season totals project one of the best seasons of his career, along with a successful season for the franchise as a nice bonus stemming from Wilson’s expected performance.

Russell Wilson Season Totals, Career-High Numbers?

Russell Wilson, for as good as he’s been throughout his career, has never reached 4250 yards in a season. In 2020, Wilson had the most passing attempts of his career and also completed the highest percentage of his pass attempts, yet still fell short of the mark that regulated sports betting sites have set for the 2021-2022 NFL season.

Despite Wilson never hitting this milestone before, the addition of the 17th game to the NFL schedule may be able to allow him to hit the total set for him.

However, a total he has hit before is actually a touchdown season prop for the quarterback. Wilson has recorded 34 or more touchdowns in three of the last four seasons and is coming off of a career-high 40 touchdowns in 2020. Mobile sportsbooks have his 2021 total set a bit lower than that.

Seattle Seahawks 2021-2022 Season Projections

The Seattle Seahawks have won at least 10 games in eight of the nine seasons in which Russell Wilson has been the starter. NFL betting sites expect the team’s success to continue with a win total once again hitting double-digits.

The Seahawks have also made the playoffs in eight of Wilson’s nine seasons as starting QB. This is yet another trend that is expected to continue into the 2021-2022 NFL season.

However, if Seattle makes it to the playoffs, it evidently won’t be by winning the division as sports betting operators have their odds as further down on that list. The last time that the Seahawks finished third or worse in the NFC West division was in 2011, but the team is currently listed as the third choice to win the NFC West by sportsbooks this year.

Wilson has the talent to hit the OVER on both of his individual totals and lead the team to hit their OVER’s as well. However, much of it will come down to the game script and play calling.
