This is not surprising at all, the 49ers were successful this way. The 49ers didn't blitz him much and when contained in the pocket was not very good. Their defense and our offense is what aided him the most. I hope the Hawks make him the highest paid QB in the league. Arizona was very aggressive with the bliz against Seattle in their home game and it backfired.
Yeah, I was surprised to see that he is blitzed so much. That's the last thing I'd do against him. I'd even consider rushing three and using a fourth guy to spy him - though if you're only rushing three, those guys need to genuinely rush him, not just totally sell out for contain like the Packers did on the 3rd and 19 he converted after about seven seconds in the pocket. I don't think it's fair to say he's not a very good QB, but I definitely don't think he's complete at this point. Press their receivers at the line to take away the quick pass, play a man-heavy scheme so guys don't find the soft spot in the zone, and keep him in the pocket and I think he's mediocre at best.
