Thats like asking which of the 7 deadly sins the devil is responsible for.

Are you avoiding answering this because you realized the broken ribs/collarbone you were referring to happened under Reid and not Shurmur?

He gets his QBs laid out and hit on the regular.

Also Vick was never injury prone eithier. It was when he became a pocket qb and was taking hits that he was injured instead of being on the move.

Vick started all 16 games only once in his career… once

Nick Foles and Daniel Jones had career years under Shurmur, FWIW

I like to counteract the negativity with positivity, life is about balance.

Half the league is without a fullback, and the teams that run FB's rarely have them for the bulk of offensive plays...

I’m not saying he’s our QBOTF, but the Tebow offense was more entertaining to watch FFS. I also don’t believe Cam’s arm is shot. Can he throw as well as Tebow? Can he still run the read option with 2 stud RBs and rush for 150-200 yards a game? What the problem is? I’d rather watch that than Teddy. The Broncos offense angers me. It’s too talented to be so inept.

Sorry. My bad. Shurmur can do no wrong...

When someone's pointing to a trend across the entire league and you fall back on "I am accusing you of loving Shurmur," it is such a bad faith argument.

If we are going g after cam might as well go after Watson. Younger, trillion times better, not broken.
(I want nothing to do with cam) would rather watch lock rest of the year.

Ah, yes. Best move he made. Fullbacks are useless unless you’re as smart as Kyle Shanahan. If you aren’t Kyle Shanahan you should ditch fullbacks. It’s a useless position under current rules. Javonte Williams is better at pass protection than any fullback you could hire. Fullbacks don’t protect quarterbacks. They lead block for running backs and signal to the defense you aren’t serious about passing.

Those are elite QBs you’re comparing him to. He’s no where near the level of those guys, no scheme is going to magically turn him into Mahomes. I get it, Shurmur sucks, maybe under somebody like Shanny and a decent o-line Lock could be serviceable, but he’s never going to be Mahomes or Josh Allen, no matter what anybody does.

That's not the point. How did those guys get elite?

I'm never said Lock can be elite - I'm saying the system has to fit the skillset of your best players to get the best out of them.

That's just not true.

There are repeated plays where he doesn't throw the ball deep when the play design calls for it and the WR is open.
