To me you are right, but it's 50/50. I think coaching has just as much to do with being successful as one position. A proper coach having guys buy into and run an actual system will do teams wonders. Ask SF(nolan,Singletary).
Do you feel Romeo had these guys running a proper offense? This not only is helpful to the QB, but every position as well.

Like I said, look at what these coaches have done before and after their top QB's.
Tony Dungy was fired from Tampa Bay because he couldn't field an offense worth a shit. He was a defensive "guru" supposedly. He also had some damn good defensive players in TB. He goes to Indy, gets gifted with Manning, and all of a sudden he's a great coach....even though that "guru" could never field a defense worth a shit Indy.
Peyton, otoh, moves to Denver and now all of a sudden John Fox, who barely won anything in Carolina w/o a QB, is all of a sudden a great coach.
Carrol trotted out a sub .500 team two years in a row before Wilson.
Harbaugh was able to mask Alex Smith, but i'd hardly say he made him better. And as soon as Harbaugh had the chance, he replaced him with his groomed developmental QB.
I agree that Reid will make our QB's better and our offense better, but it won't be enough to win a SB, and it never will be until Reid finds his next McNabb.
