I think it really comes down to protection, that's what I'm saying.
Take Big Ben for example. He's had lousy protection through most of his career and everyone pointed to his toughness (and it doesn't hurt that he's a huge dude), but now the injuries are lasting longer and he's not playing at the same level. Does this make sense?
The think the concern for RG3, which is pretty much unanimous outside this board btw, is legit.

Every QB gets hit.. RG3 holds the ball and looks to run when the play breaks down or doesn't go his way. It's been going on all year. It's going to happen next year, and many more after that..
Talking about what "might happen" is like talking about the end of the world on Jan. 1st.
