What do you attribute to almost every quarterback having a down (ish) year this year? (alien.top)

Virtually every QB in the NFL is deviating from their career norms this season. Studs like Allen, Mahomes, Burrow (playing better recently) Lawrence, Hurts, Watson, etc all seem to be turning the ball over more. What do you think is causing this? Just more Defensive adjustments?

Defenses are limiting big plays now with two high safety concepts now. It's forcing teams to methodically move down the field and rely on explosive plays from receivers in the open field. Here are some solid reads for more info.
