Although he still is among the lowest-rated quarterbacks in terms of QBR (Total Quarterback Rating) and passer rating, Wilson’s recent play has given coaches and teammates encouragement and belief that he can help lead them to the playoffs after beginning the season 1-3.

Gang Green will also be without cornerback D.J. Only the Broncos, Bengals and Giants allow more rushing yards per game.
