This thread is just another "Andy debate" magnet. And really nothing either side says will sway the other side.
As to us getting past our playoff issue, QB play has been WAY down the list in the cause column. Far more of an issue has been:
a) Defensive Line getting blown off the ball like boys leading to zero pass pressure, neat pockets and astronomical run yardage given up.
b) Offensive Line (especially the interior) getting owned by the opposing defense in the playoffs. End result is run gets stuffed and pass plays have little time to develop and QB has no pocket to step up into.
c) Mystifying scheme and other coaching calls on our side.
These are way more important. If our lines would even just hold their own in a playoff game I think we would have wins by now but they don't - they both get blown off the ball with ease.
