Wilson is very much like a magician on the field this year, making all the right passes and eluding the defense of the opposing team. He has earned that number one spot for the MVP award because he truly is having the best season of his career.
While the 49ers game plan is to stop Wilson, San Francisco quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has a different strategy to keep his team undefeated: find any and all weaknesses inside the Seattle defensive line. If San Francisco can hold Wilson at bay and Garoppolo can get beyond their defense, the 49ers could be seeing their record advance to 9-0.
