[QUOTE="Quientus, post: 252593, member: 1834"] I believe that alot also has to do with how the team is setup and the system ... Ex.: New England when Brady got hurt ... - Matt Cassel was looking like the "2nd coming", however know that he is in Kansas City, that plays very differently with less talented players (overall), Cassel has to do much more ... and he is looking quite "average" atm in my opponion ... If we take the Packers ... a team that doesn't have a "real threat" at running back position ... and also being a "Passing team" ... most plays will be designed to pass ... thus giving the quarterback more opportunities ... Again, I'm NOT saying that Rodgers isn't talented, because he is ... But still needs to "prove" himself in terms of being a "star" ... (and Rodgers could very well be a top5 quarterback in the years to come, but right now he isn't ...) The Vikings (pre #4) was a running team, and still are a running team, however, when (most of the) plays are designed for the run ... there won't be alot of passing ... The Colts (ever since I can remember under Manning) have been an almost purely passing team ... Same goes for New England ... Also, you have to take into account how the game has changed to be more "passing" friendly, in terms of penalties, and what is allowed ... As I see it ... it is becoming increasingly difficult to defend "properly" against passing ... and personally I think that is a shame ... Granted, it's never good to see people get injured, however ... Football was meant to be a "rough" contact sport ... [/QUOTE]
