Former NC State Quarterback Russell Wilson recorded yet another game-winning drive last night, leading the Seahawks to a 27-24 victory over the Packers.

With a little over 8 minutes left in the game, Seattle received the kickoff after Green Bay kicked a 36-yard field goal to extend their lead to 24-20.

Wilson proceeded to lead the Seahawks on a 7 play/75-yard drive (3:15), ending in a 15-yard touchdown pass to Tight End Ed Dickson with 5:11 left on the clock. He was 4 of 5 for 73 yards and a touchdown on the drive.

On the night, Russell was 21 of 31 for 225 yards and 2 touchdowns (0 interceptions), with a 110.3 QB Rating.

Since 2012, Wilson has orchestrated 21 game-winning drives in either the 4th quarter or Overtime, which is second only to Matthew Stafford (26). (Tweet)

The Seahawks always feel like they have a chance with the ball in Wilson’s hands at the end of the game. Since the beginning of last season, he’s the best in the business in the 4th.

Here’s a look at Wilson’s 2 touchdowns.

The Seahawks victory kept their playoff hopes alive. They (5-5) currently are right behind the Vikings (5-3-1) for the final Wild Card spot.
