Wilson finished 16 of 27 for 293 yards, the best day of his young career. He added Brady to an impressive list of quarterbacks he’s topped this year: Tony Romo, Aaron Rodgers and Cam Newton. It was also the fifth time in six games Wilson found himself in a late drive with the game on the line.
‘‘I think I'm always comfortable no matter the situation, I think I'm just more experienced,’’ Wilson said. ‘‘Being in those situations you have to trust what you see, you have to be quick with your decisions but also believe in your decisions and just be decisive with the football.’’
NOTES: Brady threw two interceptions in a regular season game for the first time since last November against the New York Giants. He threw two interceptions in the playoffs against Baltimore. ... First-round pick Chandler Jones had two of New England’s five sacks of Wilson. ... Seattle P Jon Ryan averaged 60 yards per punt. According to the team, he’s the first punter to average 60 yards per kick since 1946.
