Bengals / Texans

That's ******* ridiculous. Fire your OC after the 2nd ******* game? Really?

Knee jerk much?

And they promoted the QB coach who helped Dalton reach his current heights.

When has this ever not been the case? As long as I've been watching the NFL, you have about a third of the qbs that range from great, to good. The middle third are either young qbs on the possible rise, old guys in decline, and Neil O'Donnell types. The bottom third is comprised of rookies, and second year guys who may or may not develop, and scrubs who might be a decent backup on a good team. It has always been this way.

This is true. But the league rule enforcement hasn't always been this slanted in favor of the offense (and the passing game specifically). So because of the way the game is played now, if your QB isn't any good, your team is miserable to watch. So like.. 2/3 of the league is miserable to watch, and could be even more with injuries

In this current NFL there is NO position greater than QB that has to play great. The whole NFL is based on QB play and FF statistics. If the QB isn't playing well the whole team will be hard to view. In the past you could have offsetting performances to pick up a QB lousy play, wheather it be a RB or a great "D". Look at some of Bill Cohwer's teams to prove my point but with the rules laid out as they are there needs to be above average QB play to legitamite. In time and with the saturation / deleted / sinking availability of GREAT QBs the NFL will get harder and harder to watch.
