He is showing up.

But Moore is Balling

Russell Wilson has a perfect passer rating (158.3) when targeting Tyler Lockett this season.

Wilson to Lockett: 25-31 (80.6%), 12.71 yards/attempt, 6 TDs to 0 INTs

Wilson to all others: 95-143 (66.4%), 8.13 yards/attempt; 10 TDs to 4 INTs, 103 rating


To me, it looks like TL is earning his new contract but my view differs considerably to the experts in this thread.

I would definitely agree. He has been Seattle's top playmaker this year.

Brandon Marshall having the 2nd most targets just doesn't compute, though I suppose it is possible due to being featured a lot more the first few games until being demoted to WR5 lately. The team is also not having to throw it very much as compared to the beginning of the season before the run game took off. Just looks weird since he's caught like 1 pass the last 3 games it seems.

Lockett is playing pretty well. Hard to get the volume stats to the level of what other similarly paid WRs are making when we throw it 17 times in a game, but he makes his chances count for sure.
