Quite simply......put him on his back a number of times. Knock him down. No matter what level...from pee wee all the way up to the pros. Knocking him down a couple of times will make him think about the time he has in the pocket and how long he has to get the ball outta his hands. The whole thing about rattling a QB is true. Over time some will get better and learn to take hits. But for the most part, knocking him down every so often will rattle him and force him into quick decisions. Even with having a decent OL, there will be times where the QB has time to throw and as soon as he releases the ball a DL hits him. That split second between a sack and a roughing the passer call is important.

First, ignore the offensive line and focus on skill players around him (David Carr, Houston Texans)
Second find a coach who believes that the QB's mechanics need to be "fixed" (Rick Mirer, Seattle Sehawks)
Third make sure the parents put too much pressure on the QB from the day they are born (Todd Marinovich, Oakland Raiders)
That should mess up a QB pretty well.

Whatever the Texans did to David Carr is the perfect way to mess up a QB.

A QB is usually frustrated by heavy blitzes and man-to-man coverage. He simply can't make the pass if the reciever is on lockdown while having to worry about the 250 pound linebackers and even bigger lineman coming after him.

By far, the best way to mess up a QB is to put him into the Detroit Lion's system. It's proven.

Effective man-man coverage in the mid and backfield, with decent rushing to contain him in the pocket. This is when qb's get frustrated and either throw it away, scramble or throw interceptions because they're too over confident.

give him a terrible o-line, bad running backs, horrible WR's and no vet QB to look up to or learn from. then take him in and out of the starting lineup, change O-coordinators every year and just when he starts getting comfortable, sign someone to take his place.

pushing him to start before he is ready. its a huge jump from college to the pros and if they are forced to play before they are prepared they'll almost certainly fail. happens every year.
