AR is a lottery ticket in a particular way (because we're just going to see, I'm not sure you can develop or "unlock" this)...
AR will have to love football like his mother. The kind of detail type things he needs to work on will require him to DUUUUUUMP hours into it. I need John Candy from Cool Runnings to come in and have that pep-talk about how the other guys can go out to the bar, but the driver has to stay in the hotel room studying turns and corners.
I've said it a bunch (not that I'm special and came up with it)... "Accurate" by NFL standards is not the occasional bomb to Pierce, or the occasional pinpoint laser beam on that crosser to Dulin, or that dime he threw to Downs.
It's leading your receiver to the sideline on a 7-yard out EVERY time. Or putting the ball on the proper shoulder EVERY time so that your receiver doesn't have to contort and fall to catch it 2 yards short of the 1st down, but can instead turn upfield and keep the drive alive. Or TIMING your throws so that the ball and the defender don't both hit the WR at the same time and we call it a drop (there's enough legitimate drops as is).
If it's the most important thing in the world besides his family, he'll not only get tangibly better, but... The effect of that devotion would mean you rub off on everyone and almost certainly won't tolerate fucking around.
If football, for him, is just a job he has for a few years... well, then that's that.
