Your first sentence should bring no anger from anyone. It's just the nature of the game. What WR ISN'T to some extent, a product of the QB they played with, just as the QB is to some extent, a product of their WR's. That is the beauty of football. EVERYONE's success or failure is so interrelated with everyone else's,
One of the biggest misnomers that TV marketing has brought to professional sports has been the emphasis of individual players over the team. Before around the 80's, TEAMs won championships. Ever since that time, with every passing decade. the focus of winning has gone further and further from the team and on to the INDIVIDUAL.
The wrongness of it becomes even plainer when we talk about football, because no game is more team-dependant. Just watch tomorrow and see how much more the media talk will be about Brady vs Revis, instead of the Jets vs the Pats. These days its ALL about the individual personalities.
As for Lafell, he is a good NFL WR, but there is no doubt that his play is going to be made better playing with a QB like Brady and an OC like McDaniels. But we've also seen that Brady is an elite QB, maybe the best of all time, but he isn't as good a QB without Gronk as he is with him. Just as when his OL isn't effective his play drops precipitously as well. As we saw the first 4 games last fall. Everybody's success is so dependent on each other.
