April 18, 200521 yr quarterback. offensive line has to account for their blitz schemes and with many programs they are realitively simple. sure the offensive line is the 'line' of defense and they get hit a lot, but they know they are going to get hit and you better prepare for it. when the offensive line fails, especially the blind side tackle, the quarterback takes the big shot because he is not expecting the hit, granted great quarterbacks and can 'feel' the pressure but few are great. the quarterback has to make a split second decision when in the pocket. he must be able to read the entire defense and throw in a very small area with unbelievable accuracy. is qb more physically demanding than the line? no. more mentally demanding? by far. there is a reason why quarterbacks get all the glory and all the shame.
