I think Josh Allen has fooled people into thinking accuracy is an easily fixable problem.
I dont know, Jordan Love went from having Tim Tebow-level accuracy early on in the season to improving his accuracy to near elite levels by the end of year. I'm still not sure how that happened or which version of Love the Packers will get the next season, but it was quite the accelerated in-season growth.
As for the Fields trade. Oh boy. Justin truthers must be in shambles after this one. Since early reports indicate he will be sitting behind Wilson, this looks like a 6th rounder next year, which is basically nothing for a guy drafted, what, 11th overall in 2021.
Fields just wasn't the guy. What confused me about him is that Bears fans are usually never shy of criticizing their players, especially their QBs, but for some reason Fields was just treated differently. A lot of the fanbase seemed to just be looking through rose-colored glasses when viewing the guy, blaming everyone but him for his shortcomings. There was recently even some chatter from some fans thinking they'd get a 1st rounder for the guy. That was never gonna happen.
And who knows, maybe it's true that he was another promising star that the Bears fucked up, but that's not any different from the long line of QBs before him.
