Russell Wilson was traded to the Denver Broncos at the start of the offseason. He is coming to Denver with high expectations, as their roster is pretty good, and they just needed a skillful quarterback. He has a very tough competition within his division itself, as all four teams are quite competent.

According to NFL Legend Maurice Jones-Drew, a rival quarterback of Wilson is better than him. Jones-Drew has claimed that the quarterback of the Las Vegas Raiders, Derek Carr, is better than Russell Wilson.

Maurice Jones-Drew said, “I believe Derek Carr is a better quarterback than Russell Wilson.” It came after many people were on the Russell Wilson hype train. The sense around the NFL community is that Wilson can play similar to what Matthew Stafford and Tom Brady did in the last two seasons.

The Broncos have a pretty good team, but getting Russell Wilson won’t guarantee you a Super Bowl immediately. Jones-Drew claimed that Carr is better because he has consistently played better than Wilson for the past few years.

However, this is because of various factors. The Seattle Seahawks haven’t been good for the past few years. Their O-Line was bad, and it had a bad impact on Wilson. The situation in Denver is very favorable to Wilson. Maybe he can return to the form of past years, and many people want to see that.

Who is likely to have a better season; Russell Wilson or Derek Carr?

The fight in the AFC West is going to be pretty special in the upcoming season. Russell Wilson will finally be on a new team, and it will unleash the best version of him. The question is, can he have a better season than Derek Carr?

Derek Carr is arguably the most underrated quarterback in the league. He took his team to the playoffs last year despite everything that went around their organization that year.

He now has his best friend as his WR1. Davante Adams is arguably the best receiver in the league. He will act as a huge safety blanket for Carr. Unlike Wilson, Carr has a pretty lethal offensive weapon. This gives him a slight advantage heading into the season.

Since he has been here for a long time, Carr knows his team’s system better than Wilson does. As a result, Derek Carr is expected to have a better season than Russell Wilson, but one never knows what can happen.
