He did everything he was supposed to do and had us with a 12 point lead with 4 mins left, and the defense went and gave up two tds. Also one of our wrs dropped a game clinching pass after he had fumbled earlier in the game. And he did it all without the thumb in his throwing hand being one 100%. There is nothing a Caleb Williams or Drake Maye could do to elevate this team with all the holes and terrible coaching. Poles will most likely take a QB just to cover his ass and give himself a few more years but it will set us back a few more years and maybe longer if they bust l.
I’m not sure we can say 100% that we need a new coaching staff and at the same time say Fields is at fault for playing inconsistent. How much better does Fields need to play to be considered “not the problem”? And with the right coaching staff does he get that much better?
I think it makes sense to continue building around him through the draft and if we’re having this conversation again in 2 years then make a decision. They whoever we get will have a solid team around him.
