Fields has failed in 3 places already and just doesn’t have the vision and processing skill to be a good NFL QB. Plus as a guy who relies on his legs he won’t age well.
Not sure what it says about Mahomes because they need a backup if he’s healthy.

The trade was for a 2027 6th, ie almost nothing. And the jets ate 7 million to dump him.

The Chiefs are paying him 3 mill. That’s not even good backup money.

Just seeing Reid coach Chris Oladokun against the Broncos and nearly winning is yet another evidence that he is a QB guru. I think Fields has been unlucky with the folks around him. Like I said, he finally has a chance. Lets see how it goes. Andy Reid sees something there. Fields also chose the Chiefs and thus his low salary. He wants to learn the game the right way. Reid will do that for him.

Oladokun was 13/22 for 66 yards.

Yes, was a tough game that he managed well even with 66 passing yards. I watched that game and he made plays with good playing calling when his team needed it. Only got undone at the end.
Surprised you have totally given up on Fields. Vividly remember campaigning hard for him during the draft.
I just feel he has never had a proper offensive minded coach until now. If he does not cut it, this will be the end. Until then, I will keep the last few nails out of his football coffin.

Ok there isn’t much for us to talk about if you think a qb throwing for 66 yards is good. I watched the game too. They had 10 first downs and 139 yards of total offense. It was one of the worst offensive performances of the year.

Why would I not change my opinion of a player when he proves he can’t play?

All fair points. I believe in Reid and believe he will do wonders for Fields.
Break.
Where does Jauan Jennings end up? Overall Interest is surprisingly lower than I was anticipating and he must be getting on the desperation side.

Great move by Denver. I think he's a JAG, but Nix will probably have a better season than Maye next year. Significantly better line and weapons.

If you attaching to take that approach you could at least come up with something that doesn’t make you sound like an idiot.
