Interesting theory, would that apply to Heath Shuler? I always wondered how he would've done had norv started him instead of Frerotte. Once he was benched he lost all moxy.
I would add that w/any player, but QB especially, success comes down to personality, drive, etc. As someone posted earlier, we haven't had the "it" factor in a qb in a long time w/the painful exception of McNabb. This team needs a young leader on Offense, someone with a strong drive to succeed & the charisma & leadership to demand it of others. I would rather have a guy has those characteristics than a guy w/a rocket arm & athleticism. I think Locker seems like he could be that type of leader.
