Too obscure for any of us to really know. All we can go on is what is... and what this offense has looked like in stretches before they get a lead and sit on it. Have to figure any QB that changes TOO much of a HC/OC's calls.. is going to piss off that HC/OC at some point. It's thumbing your nose at what you think of their playcall ability... which is bound to piss off anyone.

Under no circumstances should Alex be outperformed by the likes of Marcus Mariota and Trevor Semen.

Yes, they have been doing it a long time.. and at great, unprecedented Franchise win % success since the 90's.
They clearly are fine with this philosophy.. but it won't always work, and never really shines up the stat-book.
