[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 1013737, member: 17987"] I've heard this said a lot (which is understandable, cuz it is true and all, so..) but it's got me thinking. I've seen a lot of people saying things like "We need to be patient with our young WRs because Love is still inexperienced and getting a feel for things and trying to find his rhythm and learning" and so on. Fair enough. And I've also heard a lot of people saying the same from the opposite side: "We need to be patient with Love, his receivers are inexperienced and young and still learning and getting a feel for things," which is also true enough. But I guess what it has me asking lately is like...how often does that actually WORK for both sides? I'm sure we can think of plenty of examples of an offense with a young QB but established/experienced and/or elite talent at the skill positions that helps the QB develop and ends up being successful. And I'm sure we can think of plenty of examples of offenses with established/experience/elite QBs who are given young/inexperienced skill players but the QB is able to elevate them to play at a higher level. But both at the same time? How many examples can we come up with where a team takes a young and very inexperienced QB and surrounds them with younger and LESS experienced passcatchers and both parts (QB/receivers) are able to adequately develop and grow at the same time to eventually form a legitimate "contending" offense? I don't know. Just seems like there are many ready to throw Love under the bus, there are many ready to throw our receivers under the bus, but there are very few willing to stop and say "Perhaps the way this roster is assembled does not do anything to help out Love OR our WRs". Short of adding some experienced/established players and/or elite talent on one side of that "equation" it's hard for me to see that as much of a recipe for success. [/QUOTE]
