Yeah... I mean, it's all horseshit speculation. But it all starts up front with your OL. Alex is not a gunslinging phenomenon, but he's very efficient when he gets in a rhythm and can trust that his pass pro will allow him enough time to hit a 2nd or 3rd read. If the pass pro consistently can not, then he will quick hit or hesitate and scramble into nothing too often. Even then, he usually won't screw up too often.. but he also won't do enough to elevate the shit team around him.
Some QBs are great at improv... Alex isn't... he relies on being in rhythm. That means, you have to put a decent OL in front of him.
