His last game was actually the first time in his career he faced any pressure in the pocket at all and all of a sudden he was a lot more ordinary (plus the refs missing an obvious delay of game didn't help Denver any). Also, when you have Mitch Trubisky throwing for 6 TDs it is obvious there is a league wide problem going on with defenses.
Doesn't hurt that he has a brilliant offensive mind as a head coach (Reid), the league's defending rushing leader at RB (Hunt), an All Pro TE (Kelci), an All Pro WR (Hill), and a #2 WR who had 1000+ yds in 2015 and has averaged over 15 YPC every season of his career (Watkins).
