I'd rather them hire a QB coach with a record of developing qb's if you ask me what I really want.
Your facts are a little off. Brees started working with House in '04. In his first two years as a starter, he posted QBR's of 76.9 and 67.5. In '04, he had a QBR of 104.8, a dramatic improvement. How much credit House should get is debatable, but the position that Brees was already elite is false. The Bengals also brought Pryor in for a tryout last year, but didn't sign him. The fact that they signed him this year would seem to indicate improvement.
You can also add Joe Flacco and Carson Palmer to the list of QB's that have worked with House. The fact that he has worked with 3 of the 8 NFL starting QB's with a Super Bowl ring would seem to indicate he has something going right. He isn't going to make a guy turn into Joe Montana magically, but there are guys benefiting from his program.
