He just finished his rookie year. In many instances it has taken QBs 3-5 years to develop. Some are a lot quicker, but some are not.
Rodgers didn't start for like 3 years. Alex Smith took several years to hit his stride. Any number of other took longer than their rookie season,

make excuses all you want. either you have it or you don't. it's obvious the moment you step on the field.
ask conner cook. manziel. mccoy. weeden.

Let Brock be another example of something I tell everyone but no one believes: Quarterbacks can be too tall to play the position.
Seriously, as stupid as it sounds it's been historically true for a long, long time. The best educated guess is being that 2-3 inches taller than 6'5' makes it easier for defenses to read the eyes of the guy, but the theory holds an incredible amount of merit.

Well, then, why don't you just go and inform him and the Broncos and the 32 teams in the NFL that he should quit the game and go sell insurance.

Agility tends to go south and height goes north. But height... seeing over the OL... is supposed to offset that. So when a QB plays shorter than his height, like Brock does, it kills what could be an advantage. Then you are left with a less agile QB.
When on top of that your tall QB has an extra long wind-up/slow release...
...and throws 3/4 side-arm...
... or lower which is a real problem.
I swear on the late INT Brock threw vs. NE, the one that sailed high over everyone except a Safety, that I was reminded of the MLB playoffs when an infielder dropped his arm angle and the throw sailed over the First-baseman's head. The analyst went on (and on) about arm physics and why it happens. Anyway... that's Brock in a nutshell.
Edit: And there is way too much to fix with Brock.
I remember being really excited about Tim Couch in '99. Then I heard Chris Palmer, our first QB whispering HC, say, "Tim is a great prospect. We just have to tweak his throwing motion a little."
To which I said, "Oh, shit..."

^^^Good Take there. It's amazing how consistently true that fact is over the game's history.

Though, Bernie, a tall QB (6'5") with a weird, sidearm throwing motion seemed to do all right. For a while. What I wonder though is whether or not his throwing motion contributed to his arm injuries that he suffered later.

6'5' is that arbitrary but consistent cutoff point though. The only guy 6'6' or taller who has had a good career is Flacco.

Listened to Greg Cosell on Paxton Lynch and he basically said he needs a complete overhaul. Everything he does mechanically is the wrong thing to do, good luck with that Denver...
