Maybe they were downgrading him based on his injury, which shouldn't be as much of a factor as they want it to be. Did they not see him run for 60 yards on Sunday night?? Plus it's based on the opponent, and everyone has a hard-on for Seattle's D.
I think the legend of the Seahawks defense is being largely overblown. Since Halloween they have faced (in order) Christian Ponder, Mark Sanchez, Ryan Tannehill, Jay Cutler, Ryan Lindley, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Colin Kaepernick and Sam Bradford. Not really a murderers row of QB there. I'd put RG3 ahead of all of them. Not to mention, the best back they faced in that group was Matt Forte who has been dinged up all season or Frank Gore who got 6 carries because Seattle put up 28 1st half points.

Not discounting that Seattle has a decent defense but some are making them out to be the second coming of the 85 Bears and they need to pull up a little.
