We criticized Wilson for Denver’s offense struggles and it was deserved criticism — the veteran QB continues to hold the ball too long at times and he seems to have a handful of terrible throws every week. With that said, Wilson also deserves praise for making plays when it mattered most.

Wilson definitely has his shortcomings, but there’s no denying that he’s a gamer. The 34-year-old QB rushed for 30 yards on Monday and he extended plays with his legs throughout the game, including a great effort to get the ball to Courtland Sutton on fourth down and a phenomenal flip to running back Samaje Perine on third down. He also made a gutsy touchdown pass to Williams while getting hit, and he led a 10-play game-winning drive to seal a victory. Wilson has now led 30 fourth-quarter comeback wins in his career, representing the 10th most in NFL history.

Wilson isn’t a perfect QB, but he’s a gamer, and he knows how to win.
