He produced just fine despite having the WORST starting QB in all of football. The guy is still top 15 in the league, maybe still top 10.

Dude, Bohm is with the Packers. Fitzpatrick is the dude you're talking about and Russell and Anderson are FAR, FAR worse.
And I still remember 2008 and how at least some folks were jabbing at his inability to break being jammed at the line of scrimmage. It used to be he was double-teamed and it didn't matter. Suddenly, he became just a little more stoppable.
And TO is ALWAYS a model teammate year 1. It's year two or three when the blowups occur.
