RG3 had to be better since he was asked to carry a team, whereas Wilson had the fortune of being eased into the QB position and didn't need to do much with the elite running game and defense.

He also didn't have a new coach come in and install a completely different offense, and while I am not trying to get off on a tangent here because I believe the QB situation with this team has been settled (At least as far as when it comes to who is presently on the roster), I still don't understand all the hate for Robert's 2013 season. He threw more picks than he did as a rookie, but his overall passing stats were on track to be better, he was out there mostly on one good leg and the defense had really regressed to.

It took 3.75 seasons for Wilson to start showing he could be the catalyst of the Seahawk's offense and really those examples are still very small and they have played some awful teams these last couple of weeks which probably has at least something to do with his improved performance. I remember through the first two months of this season a lot of 'Hawks fans were questioning the money they paid for his contract.

One big thing Seattle has been since Wilson was drafted? Consistent. They run the same offense, the defense up until this season has been a beast (and it is still pretty good just not all-worldly at the moment) It's likely a lot easier to bring a young QB along slowly when there is consistency.
