Virtually every QB in the NFL is deviating from their career norms this season. Studs like Allen, Mahomes, Burrow (playing better recently) Lawrence, Hurts, Watson, etc all seem to be turning the ball over more. What do you think is causing this? Just more Defensive adjustments?
The top quarterbacks are garnering huge contracts and teams are paying for it with less depth at WR and OL. Virtually all of the QBs you mentioned in original post are recent contract extensions.
Yeah, I think this is a huge factor as well.
Damn. Good theory. That might be it.
