I was just thumbing through some of the statistics and just found it interesting to look at Wilson vs. the other rookie QB's of this year's class (Sorted by how they rank in terms of QB Rating) ...
(7th in NFL) Robert Griffin III ... 149 comp ... 223 att (66.8 Comp%) ... 1,778 yds ... 8 TD ... 3 INT ... 97.3 QB Rating
(20th in NFL) Russell Wilson ... 129 comp ... 210 att (61.4 Comp%) ... 1,466 yds ... 10 TD ... 8 INT ... 82.4 QB Rating
(27th in NFL) Ryan Tannehill ... 120 comp ... 203 att (59.1 Comp%) ... 1,472 yds ... 4 TD ... 6 INT ... 75.8 QB Rating
(29th in NFL) Andrew Luck ... 160 comp ... 288 att (55.6 Comp%) ... 1,971 yds ... 8 TD ... 8 INT ... 74.6 QB Rating
(31st in NFL) Brandon Weeden ... 165 comp ... 299 att (55.2 Comp%) ... 1,912 yds ... 9 TD ...10 INT ...70.8 QB Rating
So Russell Wilson is having a statistically better year than any of the other rookie QB's outside of RGIII. Now I realize that's a bit of an Apples to Oranges comparison given the very different situations that each of these QB's has. I just found it interesting to note that Wilson is basically on par with those guys (and of course, getting better).
