Down year for QBs

I personally love to see balance and parity in the NFL. Defenses have adjusted to the passing attacks and have made it difficult to play QB again. For a while it seemed like anyone can do it.  Hopefully it also means they will stop overpaying QBs and invest in other assets, win as a team rather than just relying on elite QBs. Resurgence of the running game has brought the game back to where it was about 15-20 years ago.  

I’ve been saying it all along. It’s back to the elementary style of football it once was, sans the air attack. Back when you played with your boys, for your school, or even in the back yard.

it is encouraging and cool to see. You do still need and benefit greatly from a general at the QB position though to keep the run defense honest. QB will always be the most important position in the game. That’s the stakes of what we are living with Bryce . You have to be willing to live and die with it, or find a way to survive. You keep paying him until you find one better. And I think as a franchise drafting one says all you need to say. It makes it known every spot is earned.

Hurts is the best of the QBs drafted in the 2020s too. Hurts and Herbert show us the sad state of QBs in the NFL this decade.

Good news. The NFL has become too reliant on QB play.

On what planet is Hurts the best QB drafted from 2020-2025?? poo, what galaxy?

I think the real shift isn't so much a return of the run.....it's the college pass game and simple offense coming to the NFL. 

that's nerfing the pass production.  Paired w/ an increase of 2 high shell to take away the simplistic deep calls.  Not so much the run has made a comeback.  I mean, there are 3 teams over 140 rush yards a game this year......which is the same amount a decade ago.

Burrow

Stats aside anyone watching the games can clearly see we’re not seeing much high level QB play across the league.  Mahomes, Allen, Burrow - nobody’s dominating

Oh, there are more.

That's just someone who has zero idea about who was drafted and when.

There are 18 current NFL starting QB's that were drafted in that timespan.

Those QB's aren't playing poorly, though. They are just on team having a dip in success for various reasons. 

I am not sure I would use one data point(an incomplete one at that) and claim QB's are no longer important.

Especially when you consider the video game stats that the QB's of the best two teams in the NFL currently have put up.

Its an overdose of the drug called copium that gives hallucinations and delusions that Bryce is somehow a good QB.
