He doesn't have to set passing records to have success with that team. He keeps the chains moving which is what he needs to do with Lynch and that defense.

Here is one of the problems I have with the Russell Wilson arguments. Just about anyone can have success on that team. As a QB on that team, your job is to not throw pick sixes and you win. They have the best RB in the game and he just flat out wears defenses down since the opposing teams offense is hardly on the field with all the three and outs that defense forces.
The comment was made that almost every GM secretly wants Wilson over who they have now (which I disagree with). But if Wilson was on another team, do you honestly think he has the won/loss record that he has now? Which is primarily what people argue in his favor (that and the SB win that was led by... guess what... that defense).
He has great pocket presence, but that doesnt win games. That team wins by attrition. They wear you down for 3 quarters and beast mode takes over in the 4th.
