Agree with this idea.

 

Its become easier to post 300 yard games even if your backup ends up wit 2-3 ints he can still post big numbers. Guys like Hoyer,Tuell, McCown , and Keenum wouldnt have seen the light of day in the 90's and early 2000's and if they did they would finish with a stat line like:

 

12-29 174yds 1 td - 2 ints being sacked 6 times

 

Now its more like :

 

 

24-40 313 yds 3 tds - 2 ints and being sacked 2 times.

 

 

 

Its definitely getting easier and easier to be a QB when you enter the league knowing alot of defenders will have to second guess hitting you for fear of a absurd penalty that cripples their team. Especially in critical moments (just before the half, 3rd and long deep in the 3rd quarter etc).
