Febreeze posted:Good coaches and patient, supportive front offices. That's the real shortage. This is pretty much it. For instance, Sam Bradford. There's a real chance he would've never lived up to the hype anyway, just based on his draft position and that insane rookie contract he got. But he went through something like three different OCs in his first three years in the league, plus however many more he's had since. Nothing keeps a QB's career in neutral much constantly switching offensive coordinators on him and essentially hitting the reset button on that player. It's why Alex Smith didn't do much until Jim Harbaugh showed up, and why Jay Cutler never really turned the corner in Chicago despite being incredibly gifted physically. There's no guarantee that a QB is going to pan out anyway, but the surest way to make sure it doesn't happen is to constantly switch offensive schemes on him.

Philip Rivers would be a slam dunk hall of famer if the organization he played for hadn't been incompetent at assembling a team around him since 2010-ish. Probably before that if you wanna be cagey about it.

sean10mm posted:Best QB season wasted on a fuckface organization? Because of this (from wiki): quote:Tony Romo accounted for 32 of the 39 total touchdowns the Cowboys scored in the 2011 NFL season (DeMarco Murray had two touchdowns while Felix Jones, Jon Kitna, Phillip Tanner, Stephen McGee and defensive back Terrence Newman each had one). Romo contributed to 82% of the team's total touchdowns for 2011, no other player in the 2011 regular season contributed a higher percentage of team touchdowns (Cam Newton: 72.9%, Matthew Stafford: 71.9%, Drew Brees: 71.2%, Tom Brady: 68.8%, Aaron Rodgers: 68.5% and Eli Manning: 63.8%). Honestly that kind of blows my mind.

Febreeze posted:I think the O lines have also been hit by the new practice restrictions. Lines function better as a group the more time they play together and they get less practice time than ever now. Geoff Schwartz said something along those lines in an article he wrote for MMQB not too long ago. http://mmqb.si.com/mmqb/2016/07/11/geoff-schwartz-guest-monday-morning-qb-nfl-detroit-lions
