That said, this discussion is academic now but EVEN if we had managed to win the Seattle game somehow, we would be without RG3 for the remainder of the post season which might work out ok in Atlanta, but probably wouldn't in Green Bay and most definitely would not in SanFran.
I'm not so sure about that. Even if they had won, keeping them there for that long would have hurt his chances for coming back the following week. It's one thing to do that when you have a sh1tty backup (Joe Webb anyone?), but Cousins is actually pretty good. It was obvious for a while that RG3 couldn't move the ball and that's when they should have realized they needed to make a change.
