But anyhow.. I'll just agree to disagree because in a team game. It's difficult for me to believe the evaluation of 1 player has nothing to do with the other 10.

And this is coming from someone who played at a D1 level and fully understand its importance.
To clarify, a QB ability to make an accurate pass from a clean pocket, IMO, has nothing to do with a running game. A QB decision to throw into double coverage or stare down a receiver or bail out and throw off their back foot due to pressure has nothing to do with a running game.

Evaluating if they have the overall requisite skills to lead an offense competently and be a productive starter has everything to do with the other 10 players around him.
