Projecting NFL win share leaders on offense, defense in 2020

Rank 3 Russell Wilson Seattle Seahawks · 5.2 wins

Russell Wilson is the only quarterback to throw 30-plus passing touchdowns in each of the past three seasons, and his 8.4 yards per attempt when facing four or fewer pass rushers ranked third in the NFL last season, per NGS.

Despite a sub-par offensive line,

Wilson's receivers caught a league-high 32 deep passes. So, why isn't he higher on this list? Well, all of these win share totals are the median projection, which are representative of what is most likely to happen. But there are a range of most likely outcomes, and Wilson could easily end up at the top of this list.

My model flags the Seahawks' ability (or lack thereof) to generate pressure on opposing quarterbacks as a potentially big problem. Wilson might be asked to do even more in order for Seattle to be victorious, which would push his win share up.
