What do you attribute to almost every quarterback having a down (ish) year this year? (alien.top)

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 front 7 of most defenses have just become such athletic freaks that it’s hard for the OL to keep up.

You have DL and edge rushers that are as fast as secondary defenders. It’s so hard for the traditional OL guys to keep up and TEs are getting rag dolled.

The pendulum swinging back will be RBs that are LB sized for pass protection and TEs that are the size of Darnell Washington that essentially gives you an extra LT or RT on the line
