Yup. And I think this applies to QB's more than any other.
Seeing a QB practice is not at all similar to seeing him play in a game. For one, he's not wearing a red jersey in a game. Nor is he going up against the same defense every single week. And leading a huddle and running plays in a practice enviorment isn't at all the same to trying to do these things with 50k+ fans going nuts.
You know who looked like one of the greatest practice QB's of all time? Jeff George. You who absolutely sucked in games? Jeff George.
