Raiders' Russell set up for failure

[IronMexican]

Good read.


• The coaching staff
One of the universal destroyers of quarterbacks is a constant juggling of head coaches, coordinators, play-callers and quarterbacks coaches. Changes year-to-year with key personnel often only serves to hit the reset button on a player’s development. As Savage pointed out, “Look at Peyton Manning(notes). He throws 28 interceptions his rookie year and they go 3-13. Who would have known that 11 years later he would have the same coordinator, some of the same coaches and the same system.”

True IM, he is on the Raiders, so crappy coaching, unfortunately, is to be expected. But Russel has been missing meetings and showing a pattern of nonchalance that is every bit as much to blame for his woes as the shitty staff.

Chowing down on seconds, thirds , fourths and fifths during supper time is an effective set up for failure too.

He set himself up for failure by being a lazy fatass.

[Blake]

most first round QBs are set up to fail because the pressure is on to throw them into the game right away.

even Brady said that he doesn't think he would have had this level of success had he been a first round pick coming in with pressure put on him.

Or, it could be that he just plain sucks.

yeah, usually QBs need to be able to throw the ball in the general direction of their receivers
