Montana, Young, Aikman, Favre, Elway. It's been a QB driven league for quite some time.

Quinn will be our starting QB. Bank on it. Quinn was drafted by Crennel and he knows Daboll's offense. Cassel is on a VERY short leash; he screws up and it is all the reason RAC needs to put in his golden boy.
Personally, I think Quinn will be a major upgrade over Cassel--that isn't saying a whole lot, but take it for what it is. |

QBs have it easy today. Guys like Montana and Elway would be ****ing insane players with the rules the way they are today.
A dude like Cassel would have been drummed out in the league in 1990.

It wasn't tougher on QB's when you defenses could hit them high and low, when receivers were getting mugged their entire routes?

THAT'S BECAUSE IT WAS HARDER TO PLAY QUARTERBACK, DUMBASS.

That said, anytime your attempts go up, the difference between the good and the bad gets wider and wider. If Kobe Bryant and I each have 10 shots to see who is a better shooter, the odds are significantly more favorable than if we have 100 or 1000. The number of attempts the quarterbacks are making these days is staggering. No QB had to do that before 2005. Oh, and your whole argument that it's easier nowadays only validates that quarterbacks are more important, or at least AS important, than ever. Because guess what? If the other guys in your division can throw for 5,000, 40 TD, and 8 INT, then you better be able to keep up. Or you will not be beating those guys. To paraphrase you, your defense can't stop the other team by going high and low and mugging receivers, so your QB better keep up. QB is way more valuable than OC or HC. It's my thesis, and frankly no one has said a word yet to disprove it. You want to start counting how many QB have won with different coaches vs coaches winning with different QB? Tell me what happens when Jimmy Johnson doesn't have Aikman. George Seiffert sure looked amazing without Steve Young. Marty Shottenheimer was a postseason punchline until he got Montana. Belichick was a Cleveland turd until suddenly Tom Brady came out of heaven, put down his harp, and picked up the ball. Coaches can get teams together, sure, and it's not an absolute rule, but the QB makes the coach, and not the other way around, 90% of the time. |
