This is part of why there's this weird feeling that quarterback play has regressed and there's so little patience with new QBs, demanding they be elite in only a season or two. We're entering a new era in the NFL as far as QBs go and people need to slow down and realize these guys aren't going to develop into the new Brady, Rodgers, Montana, etc. in only a few years. They're younger than ever and therefore their timeline for development should be extended a season or two as a result.
