Im not talking resurgence guys like Geno or Flacco but the ones most people consider mid like your Sam Darnolds, Andy Daltons and Colt Mccoys etc.
It seems like these guys arent super great but any time its time to step up when a starter gets hurt this tier of qbs shred a defense. Its usually just smart playing doing checkdowns, screens and runs but if its so simple why isnt this the gameplan for the starter and why do defenses fall apart when they start doing basic checkdowns and screens?
Sorry if its a dumb question but Im always baffled at how well Vet QBs playing super basic ball usually destroy defenses. Every team has that one random backup that just looks like a Tom Brady against them just doing safe plays.
