Just curious with the Fields debate. Has there ever been a QB mid-way through their 3rd year or later with so much uncertainty develop into a reliable starting QB? Alex Smith comes to mind but obviously wasn’t good enough to keep his position.

    You’re getting a ton of bad examples; to the degree that Fields needs to turn it around the chances are extremely slim. Dude still looks lost in the pocket, clean or collapsing.

      The constant with the list is change in coach/team. Kind of what led me to this thought was I’ve seen many suggestions that if Eberflus stays than so should Fields and there’s not a lot of history that shows that to be beneficial.

        I think it’s more if you bring in a new coach, you let that coach bring in his own QB. You wouldn’t want to start new and demand they fix JF1.
