Why the **** are we still litigating this long-beaten-dead horse?
JFC let it go, people. Fields is gone, he’s on his 3rd team in 5 years, and the Steelers believed a washed, bum ass Russell Wilson gave them a better chance to win games. The conversation on “but what if there’s untapped potential?!” Is over.
He hasn’t proven he can win you a game with his arm, and now in NY, with the OL he never had here he has the makings of one. Mind you it wasn’t just that the OL was bad here—it was—the fucking problem was when he did get time, which he would 4-5 times a game, he didn’t see the open man or matchup to exploit like a slot on an off ball LB.
Joe Tippmann was the 9th ranked C in 2024 per PFF. Vera-Tucker is one of the best RGs in football (when healthy,) he’s just in the shadow of guys like Quentin Nelson, Tyler Smith, and Chris Lidstrom—who are all-pro level—and in back to back years, they’ve drafted their bookend tackles in Fashanu and Membou. Cut the horseshit excuses when his apex so far in his career is 2500 passing yards in a season.
Now Fields is in NY with a defensive coach on a short term bridge contract, not long term starter money. Now why oh why could that be?
Because whatever could the jets be looking to draft that there will be a few of next spring in the draft? QB. What do you know, the guy who’s been a placeholder in Chicago and Shittsburgh is a placeholder in NY.
