When Bridgewater filled in for Brees earlier this year, he looked like a star as well. The question than is it the system or the QB?
That is 3 QBs all playing in a similar system and all had a great year. How do you explain that? I'm guessing the system is QB friendly.
If Brady stays at LSU as a coach and another QB comes in and performs similar to Brees, Burrow, and Bridgewater than it is more the system than the player.
These are things to think about and things that Bengals have to consider when making a decision on who is their next QB.
I'm not a scout but I try to look at the bigger picture and right now that includes systems and how a player fits into the system the Bengals are using. If none of the three top QB fit the Bengals system, drop out of the top pick and pick up additional picks.
It may or may not be a QB friendly system. But if it is, it's only for the really smart ones. Joe Brady used to deliver a 12 page report on LSU's upcoming opponent to Joe Burrow every Sunday. This report would outline everything, routes for every possible receiver, as well as blocking responsibilities for every offensive player, along with every known coverage and tendency that the upcoming opponent liked to use. It's been said that Joe typically had that 12 page report memorized each week, before Monday practice.
Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
