Without "neck", field vision is limited to one direction only. I think we can all agree that even the most skilled quarterback will have limited use of "head" without "neck". Therefore, I don't think we can completely eliminate "neck" as a critical attribute for success.

Which is why Bartee could never have made it as a quarterback. The inability to turn one's head, while a detriment as a CB, is definitely a drawback at the QB position.
I'm glad you cleared that up for me, Mr. Fax.
