Yeah my comment wasn’t necessarily referring to Russ but rather the last section of the article. I still bullishly believe in him to some extent. I just think teams are way too committed to their respective QBs. Justin Fields for example: I think he has tremendous upside and they should keep him but also take a shot with a top 5 pick bc of his passing issues. They have plenty of cap space and they should add weapons on offense to help evaluate whoever they play at QB. Zero chance they do this though.
Across all sports, teams tend to overvalue their own assets. Probably a combination of sunk cost fallacy and willfully ignoring the players' red flags. Speaking of Fields, a QB who gains 30 net passing yards on 28 dropbacks is probably not going to evolve into a franchise cornerstone. Chicago needs to be honest and realize that Fields may never become a serviceable passer and draft his potential replacement this year. Instead, they'll roll with Fields and win 7 games a year until everyone gets fired.
