I dont think coming from a spread is a flaw anymore. Most of the nfl uses it now. Very few teams run their full back out there. Most spread the field and hope your qb can get the ball out quick enough. The most important thing now imo is pre snap read, then adjust call. But what holds that back is coaches like reid, who waste a lot of time getting call in.
The past rule changes are what increased the spread of the spread. The league has diminished the power of running backs. Personally if you have a decent stable like the chiefs. They need to splite the backfield with charles and ware/west. With kelce at the line. Maclin isolated and whatever speedster at slot you have trouble containing our speed and extra protection for smith. It allows both rb easier rb tosses our outs. would love to see them try. But reid could not call it. We would need smith to call it or convince trent green to come in and help call play plays. |
I don't view never being taught something as a fatal flaw though. They can learn that stuff
|
A fatal flaw is not looking handsome and/or not having a cool name.

Accuracy is the only one that can't be taught.
But if I'm the one in charge of drafting/developing this guy the interviews and intelligence are probably the most important part of my evaluation. |

Accuracy issues cane be corrected in some cases by improving flawed footwork. I think TK13 is spot on with his post. It all starts with work ethic. |

Accuracy. Injury history.
The biggest one for me is when a QB in college never had to hit small windows to complete passes. RG3 stands out as the clear cut example of that. |

I know you are going to pull out guys you think are ugly etc. That may have had a decent career in your opinion, But the fact is there consistently aren't guys with names like Browning Nagle on a thrown John Unitas Dan Marino Joe Montana Steve Young Tom Brady Russell Wilson Drew Brees Brett Favre Terry Bradshaw Aaron Rodgers Kurt Warner Steve McNair Warren Moon Cool names,solid sounding names,easily flowing names. What about ugly Ben Roethlisberger? His last name happens to be of a heritage that there is a majority population of in Pittsburgh or Pennsylvania. Jets,Fitzpatrick -Irish name: new york has the most concentrated Irish population at 12.9% Brady- Irish name: Boston has a 20.4 Irish population.(since these 2 teams are so relatively close together in the East, I'm sure thats helpful for fan interest) Roethlisberger, swiss German name: yes there's a high swiss German,swiss/ German,Pennsylvania Dutch population in Pennsylvania. The largest ethnic group in USA is German. Steelers are one of the top 3 most popular,if not the most popular teams in America. I guess they were just lucky to get a guy with that last name,huh? |
