More like logic. So you build a QB that can throw the ball 90 yards on a lazer beam. Great. 90% or more of the passes thrown are 25 yards or less in air distance (from LOS). So you just spent a SH*T TON of time, effort, and SP's on insanely bumping a skill (strength) and on PD for the benefits gained only 10% of the time... and that's just in a career (throw out all running plays, sacks, and anything not an attempted pass)... a career that at LEAST 50% of it is spent without any of those skills "buffed out" because of the time spent building the dot up. So I've always felt... even though I "followed the trends" for several of my first QB's... that I was wasting my time chasing the build that way. I finally just didn't do it anymore and just built it how I thought was best. Perfect? No. Still a work in progress... but definitely better than my 100+ strength guys. And I DO believe in PQ over PD. Not sayign don't have ANY PD... just be sure you have a lotta PQ.

Actually, I do agree that confidence is way overrated. So a LOT more strength than confidence. At best, confidence (for a QB)... maybe 50-ish? 1st cap is good enough, IMO.
