Here is the box score:
Redskins vs. Seahawks - Box Score - November 5, 2017 - ESPN
Wilson had a 55% completion percentage against our defense and 2 interceptions while his running game averaged 5.3 yards per carry.
Kirk had a 67% completion rating against their defense, zero interceptions while our running game averaged 2.2 yards per carry.
Despite a lesser run game, lesser defense, and more injuries Kirk is playing better (or at least as good) and is shouldering more of the burden of the offense.
