So, what we have is a guy who landed in a totally ideal situation.  He wasn't thrown straight into the fire, had a HoF offensive mind as a HC, has always had at least good and often elite pass pro, and has had a HoF TE and Top 5 WR for the vast majority of his run.  

Yes, but I am not asserting that he didn't. He landed in a very good situation, that isn't debatable. I am asserting that he would still be a successful QB if he didn't go to that situation.

He went to the perfect landing spot and is on his way to the Hall of Fame. How good would he be if he went somewhere else? I have no idea. He likely isn't on the trajectory he is on now (not yet, at least) but he has several elite traits that would allow him to flourish.
