Listen, coming from a guy who knows about average QB play, Nick Marshall wasn't a good QB. Malzhan is a system coach who is fantastic at offense. One of the keys to him being so good is the fact that he has players running wide ass open on 60% of his passing plays. The fact that Marshall couldn't pass for 3000 yards in a season under Malzhan is telling. Jeremy Johnson will, 2 times. But Marshall benefitted from having outstanding big outstanding receivers. Otherwise, his deep balls were either way over thrown or just a prayer once he let it go.
