NFL Week 13 is over and fans witnessed some thrilling performances and memorable victories. The week was filled with the Bills QB making history, the Seahawks surpassing the Jets in the 4th quarter, and a showdown between Pittsburgh Steelers star Russell Wilson and the Bengals. With a 9-3 record, Wilson’s squad is leading the AFC North, putting them in a strong playoff position. Steelers fans must be buzzing with excitement, especially after signing Wilson for the season, as it’s clearly paying off. After showcasing his impressive skills on the field, the QB received an outpouring of praise, including a nod of respect from NFL legend Tom Brady.

Brady shared his week 13 power rankings and three stars of the week on Fox Sports and named ‘dangerusswilson’ as the first of those three stars. Before diving into what Brady had to say about Wilson, it’s worth noting how the Steelers’ starting QB reacted, and it’s sure to make you smile. The Steelers #3 said, “All bc of the Big Boyz up front! And all our playmakers!” This response was followed by Brady’s heartfelt compliments, highlighting Wilson’s performance and leadership.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion picked Wilson first, saying, “He had himself a day on Sunday. He was the first Steelers quarterback to throw for 400 yards and three touchdowns since Big Ben (Ben Roethlisberger in 2018).” Brady continued to say, “He looked like a point guard out there. He threw completions to 10 different Steelers receivers. That is tough to do. Let’s see if he can stay hot against the Browns this week.”

In the game against the Bengals, the Steelers star completed 29 out of 38 passes after 414 yards of coverage, with a completion percentage of 76.3%. The most important moments of the game were those three touchdowns that came after three interceptions. His efforts and teamwork led the Steelers to score 44 points, culminating in their victory.

However, as they push forward in the season, there will be twists and turns on the horizon. As seasoned warriors, Russel and his teammates are preparing for the worst, and it’s their strategic mindset that sets them apart as a formidable team.

What next for Russell Wilson and the Steelers?

The Steelers and their starting QB will be looking forward to making a strong push through the season. Wilson, who was signed by the Steelers in the offseason, has been working his way back from a calf injury that kept him on the sidelines for several weeks. But the star bounced back and showed his strength in the last game against the Bengals. Wilson had to step up his game as an experienced QB. After all, the Steelers still have to face five of the NFL’s toughest teams in the coming weeks, and those matchups will be crucial for their playoff hopes.

The Steelers’ remaining schedule features the five most anticipated games of their season. Before their match-up against the Bengals, the six-time Super Bowl-winning franchise will face the Browns on December 8. Wilson’s squad will face the Eagles on December 16, the Ravens on December 22, and the Chiefs on Christmas. It will be exciting to see if the Steelers will make it into the playoffs with 14-3 or a score lower than that.

As the Steelers face a tough road ahead, Russell Wilson’s leadership and determination will be crucial to maintain their winning streak. With his clear message to the Steelers stars, Wilson sent a strong signal that he’s fully committed to taking his team on a road full of victories.
