We are seeing a broken record.
Even the best qbs can't adjust unless they're in a position to do it.
For example tell Russell Wilson he never had anything to fear from the Rams pass rush.
And good coaches learn how to handle situations like that.
I mean they're facing a gameplan that aims to take away the pass with pressure and coverage but can't defend the run.
Yet it's all on the qb?
...
Yes it is on the qb when you have the option to change the play and also to dictate where, when, and to whom you are going to give the ball to on any particular play. Mcvay is not without blame but JG is mcvay on the field.
So why does Rams pressure work? Even against good qbs, as it has often during the years. Seems like they could all audible out of it.
And no qb is the coach on the field, not even Brady or Brees. Not to that extent. According to your logic those guys would never lose games. Especially games where the key was pressure. And yet in the last few years Rams have beaten Brees a few times, including one game where the Rams qb was AJ Feeley.
I just think some people put everything on the qb regardless. The protections? Not running the ball against a bad run D? Not realizing you're gameplanning
against team whose head coach was the d coordinator who stymied you in the superbowl and can do 2 things well on D--cover and pressure?
I prefer a bigger, more well-rounded picture. I never put everything all on the qb--unless the qb is a Feeley, Clemens, Davis, or Hill etc. And the Rams won
some games even with those guys.
