I can understand this. His film is kind of strange, as we have already discussed. Most QB highlight films are 75% sprint routes down the sideline, with the QB throwing a long pass 50 yards downfield to hit the WR in stride for a TD.
I only looked at it once,, but I don't think there is one of those plays in Zurbrugg's film.
He didn't throw a ton of passes. Brendan barely passed for over 2000 yards last year. John White, another of the QBs we are recruiting hard for 2024, threw for almost twice as many yards. Heck, even Andy Bass, the super fast dual threat kid we are after out of Oklahoma threw for over 2800 yards last season.

I don't think the people doing the ratings put much of a premium on creativity, ability to save a play, etc. They want to see long passes thrown on a dime. And I am okay with that.
