Earlier in this thread when a poster said they saw something with their eyes you stated your eyes saw something different and asked could it be an Eye of the beholder thing. Then you requested "some kind of evidence or proof...."
We all see different things. Like you, I'm looking for some kind of evidence or proof to back up your, admittedly, very interesting theory.
There is absolutely no statistical proof whatsoever that a broken or very poor OL compounds the situation.
I think that's a vain request if you want stats, which you should know. Who keeps stats on qbs playing behind broken or substandard OLs v. a least decent or better OLs? I mean you;ve never provided any, right? You tend to rely on one size fits all stats, which are abstractions and in effect, hide things.
And besides you've had evidence. You've watched the Rams from 2007 on, right? They had subpar and injury decimated lines in 2007-2009, 2011, the first half of 2012, 2014, and now 2019. (In 2016 it wasn't injured but it was still bad.) How did that look to you?
So all we have--both of us--is games. You don't even look for numbers that reflect the effects of injury broken OLs, and I know why--no one provides them.
Sometimes you just have to fall back on being a decently informed and involved follower of football.
If you personally are not persuaded by that, then...so be it.
