Less passing attempts make it easier to maintain that kind of efficiency. Example:Christian Ponder has a higher completion percentage than Russell Wilson does. Wilson however, is a far better QB and Ponder would not have maintained that average if he had Wilson's attempts(he pulled a Wilson on Wilson lol).
This picture Seahawks fans try and paint of the only thing holding Wilson back from eliteness is not getting as many passing attempts is completely misguided. Will he one day be an elite passer? perhaps. However, that day has not come yet. You have to see what he does with more attempts. It doesn't need to be 50, as it's unwise not to maintain balance, but I'd say being efficient with at least 30 attempts per game before I could consider him elite.
