Players have confidence in a winning system and execute it far better. When you undergo such dramatic change in personel as the Skins did this year then it is like starting afresh. Many people point at the changes the Giants underwent this year also yet they really didn't win this game as opposed the the Skins loosing it.
Sure players have training camp to get the fundementals of any new system down but until you get into the season and against live fire it is hard for any players to translate it into game play .

I was getting ready to post the same things, but I'm glad to see you beat me to it!
Ramsey has had perhaps the bumpiest introduction to the NFL that any quarterback could undergo. Spurrier's impact on this kid is going to take some time to undo, but if any coaching staff can do it, this one can.
As for project QBs being a thing of the past, let's not be so quick to jump to conclusions based on Tom Brady's stellar ascent to NFL God status. Tom Brady is an exceptional player on an exceptional team with an exceptional coaching staff. To look at him and expect all QBs to be measured by his standard is a little unrealistic. It's like saying, "Okay, now any quarterback we draft must take us to 2 Super Bowls in 3 years, or we'll just have to drop him and move in another direction."
