(I know I am going to regret this ...
)
So, TB's 49 (IIRC) comeback wins were due to him being a poor QB? No props for the competing offense or defense? No knocks on his defense?
Yes, judging a QB on these types of games can result in overrating them. But, you can also underrate them.
I think that, over the years, discussions here have really proven one fact about the NFL. Even with great individual performance, it is the ultimate team sport. Look at any big play (not just yards, but what the result meant): A back may have one guy to beat to get the job done, and makes a sick cut to do so. He gets all the glory. Why did he have one guy to beat? Because the other ten did their jobs. If just one blocker fails, it could mean two on one and a failed play.
Same in the passing game. If a receiver's route is designed to clear defenders out of an area / get them moving the wrong way and he doesn't run it correctly, coverage could be drawn to a spot that cancels two receivers out, or gets a screen blown up. One poor OL block and pocket time is cut in half.
Back on the last minute issue - I think it says that when it's down to the wire, this QB is going to do just enough to get the win - and so will everyone else. Does this mean Kenny is in TB or P-Manning territory? Nope - I don't think he's even near pre-Rams Stafford level. That said, he deserves some credit for those four, not in spite of what was a poor performance overall but because of it. He settled down and got the job done.
