The week 13 has been truly amazing for the NFL. The Browns QB Jameis Winston lit up the Empower Field with his 497 passing yards and 4 touchdowns, but 2 pick sixes caused them to lose. But teams are headed into week 14 now. And the NFL released its ratings. Out of both conferences, the AFC has talented quarterbacks like Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, and Russell Wilson.

The Bills QB was selected as the AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his 13 of 17 passes (76.5% completion rate) against the 49ers in a snow shower. He had 148 yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, and a 141.3 rating. However, Nickelodeon recently came out with their NVP (Nickelodeon Player of the Week) Award. And they corrected the NFL mistake by announcing the Steelers QB as the winner. The reason? His performance too was dominant!

During their week 13 matchup against the Bengals, the 36-year-old outperformed his much younger counterpart in every aspect. He had 29 of 38 passes (76.3% completion rate) in 414 passing yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception, while Joe Burrow only had 28 of 38 (73% completion rate) in 309 yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception.

Mr Unlimited has a great run for the Steelers. In 6 games, Russell Wilson has a 5-1 win-loss record. Things weren’t this smooth when he sat on the sidelines in the initial games. But everything looks great now. They are first in their AFC North division with a 9-3 record and look set to qualify for the playoffs.

Fans love the signal caller not only for his on-field action but also for his work for the community. It’s sweet and overwhelming.

What’s your perspective on:

Did the NFL snub Russell Wilson for Player of the Week, or did Nickelodeon get it right?

When he played for the Seattle Seahawks, he often visited children’s hospitals in the area. After founding the ‘Why Not You Foundation’ in 2014, Russell Wilson organized several campaigns to help young people. His non-profit foundation opened a tuition-free public high school near Seattle.

His singer wife, Ciara, has also helped him with his charitable activities. In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the couple partnered with the Food Lifeline organization and donated 1 million meals to struggling families. They are often hailed as an ideal couple for such actions.
