Kyle does for quarterbacks what Mike used to do for running backs. He makes great into elite, good into great, average into good, and bad into just below average. And that is because the "system" is the little heard of strategy to surround the QB with talent vs hoping the qb can make anyone work.

so does this mean QB's will eventually be devalued and/or tossed to the curb like how Mike pretty much started the trend with RB's that we see on full display today?

Mike Shanahan's offense was plenty favorable to QBs. If there were social media back then people would be talking all about how Shanahan made Brian Griese viable and Jake Plummer into a Pro Bowl QB. He was just terrible at scouting QBs... a trait that his son actually kinda share if you think about it.

Fun fact it was actually Brian Griese who scouted Brock Purdy and backed him him to Kyle
