He's a great runner and they really don't ask him to make a lot of throws, but he's never gonna be an accurate passer. Part of it is bad mechanics, the other part is that he's not groomed to be a good passing QB...they want him to run ALL the time
So he's a game manager with running ability.

The great ones make due with what they've got. Russell won a Sb with an average WR core. Brady's won 4, Rodgers won etc...
Brady's worst receiver, LaFell used to be WR2 on this team. And the WR1 was Steve, who's good of course but he was like 66.

A 3 year old could have told you running the ball there wasn't going to work.

That's really how they use him. Look at Scam's statistics, his numbers in the passing game would get some QBs benched. He's a great runner who really needs to make about 5-10 throws a game for them to win

While mechanics and footwork are important to a quarterback's completion percentage it can not be the only thing that contributes to that statistic. Andrew Luck has been called the most fundamentally sound quarterback and the most NFL ready quarterback in terms of mechanics to come out college in a long time. However, for all his great mechanics and talents as a pocket passer, Andrew Luck so far has a career completion percentage that is lower than Newton's at 58.6 percent. When Luck broke Newton's rookie passing record (4,051 yds), it took him 110 more attempts to set the new mark at (4,761 yds) the following year. Cam Newton has thrown 54 interceptions over 4 years but it appears that Luck is on track to throw more interceptions in the same time span as he has thrown 43 interceptions in just 3 years in the NFL.

Mechanics are very important but either Andrew Luck's mechanics are over-hyped or concern for Cam Newton's alleged poor mechanics are being overblown. Cam Newton ranks 7th all time in quarterback rating (85.4) for rookies that came in and started their first four years. Luck's ranking will not be known until he completes his fourth year but is not currently projected to surpass Newton's first four year rating unless he goes out and has his best year ever thus far.

Russell has been pretty average himself, especially in the playoffs. Beast mode >>>> J Stew is the difference there.

the Packers were deep at receiver when they won the title.

New England was dead in the water last year until the best offensive player in the league came back from injury and all of a sudden they were great again but I'll give you the first three

So what are you really saying?
