NFC Wild Card Live Stream: Listen Free Online Seattle Seahawks Vs. Washington Redskins At 4:30 PM ET

Sunday's NFC Wild Card game will feature two rookie standouts as Robert Griffin III will look to lead his Washington Redskins to his first postseason win as they host Russell Wilson and his Seattle Seahawks in a highly anticipated matchup at 4:30 pm ET.

Sunday's matchup features record-setting rookies who have electrified their respective cities. The Redskins (10-6) have won seven straight since Griffin was named a team captain to capture the NFC East title, while the Seahawks (11-5) have won five in a row to earn a wild-card spot.

Griffin's 102.4 passer rating is the highest ever by a rookie and the third-best in the NFL this year. He threw 20 touchdowns to five interceptions and set a rookie record for rushing yards by a quarterback with 815.

While Griffin was the No. 2 pick in the draft, Wilson was a third-round selection by Seattle -- and the sixth quarterback taken -- before he beat out Matt Flynn for the starting job. Wilson has tied Peyton Manning's record for most touchdown passes by a rookie with 26, and he had 16 touchdowns to two interceptions during Seattle's 7-1 finish to the regular season.

Wilson, who threw for 3,118 yards, finished with a 100.0 passer rating that would have been a rookie record if not for Griffin.
