Re: The Myth of "It's all [insert QB's name here] Fault!"
I am a huge believer of the system vs. the individual player where a mediocre QB can do well enough, or even thrive, given the system/team around him. Look at the early 2000 Rams--Kurt Warner comes in and plays like a hall-of-famer; once he leaves, another unexceptional QB comes in a puts up 3500+ yds/25+ TD's a season! Take the Broncos run of late-round stud RB's--a testament to the run-blocking rather than the exceptional talent of these players.
Kyle Orton is going to be a free agent, I think the Broncos should look into Jason Campbell as a talented plug-in QB for their system.
