It took eight seasons for Geno to be anything but a bust. It seems like "right situation" was definitely a two-way street. It took seven years for Darnold. A combined nine different teams. I don't think these dudes were great QBs waiting to happen and all these teams were just clueless.
I'm not sure what "Yeah but they're not Josh Allen" even means, but I'll point out something that doesn't bolster the point... Smith spent four years with the team that drafted him and he was putrid. Darnold spent three and got worse as the years passed. But somehow people think Allen would have been dropped by the Browns before Stefanski even arrived in year three.
I understand BBS plays a part but I think the notion is basically absurd. And it's goofy to point to Allen's success as being fostered by stability, as if it was the saving grace in a QB with better tools than 98% of the QBs we've ever watched... but then look at Geno and Sam and say it was the first seven teams that got it all wrong.
