Do you have any numbers that contradicts that notion? It's easy to say "it's not true", but why don't you presents some facts behind it?

I can’t say definitively. You’re talking about a small sample size, which I think has a lot to do with scouting biases. That bias seems to be going the way of the dodo if recent trends are any indication.

So it has nothing to do with WHAT'S BEING DONE ON THE FIELD!!..oh no it's "the scouts fault that short qb's struggle"

Doug Flutie, Mike Vick, Baker Mayfield, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson, Kyler Murray, Jeff Garcia, and Tua Tagovailoa are/were all plus starters in the modern NFL who stood at 6’1” or shorter.

The majority of them never lived up to the hype and had various struggles. Which is why anyone claiming Caleb Is a "sure thing" is silly.

You are legitimately too stupid to breathe. He measured 6’ 1 & 1/8” at the combine and 6’ 0 & 7/8” at his pro day. That is well within the normal range of height variation for an individual.
|
The numbers for qb's UNDER 6'1 are even worse than they are at 6'1 dummy. That's the point. Kyler and Young are the last two in that category.
Quote:
There’s a multitude of reasons Baker and Kyler have struggled in the league. I don’t think I’d put their height in the top 5 for either.

Lol that's because you're in complete denial!!.
Quote:
K, so you think Brees threw for 80,000 yards and nearly 600 TDs throwing outside of the hashes? Lol. Sure, chief. I’ll get right on that!

YOU said "he was great throwing down the middle" so show the stats then? What you waiting for?
