Like I said - the best example of this was always Russell Wilson.
You can be weird and self-absorbed when you're really damn good. When you're not and you need your teammates to pull on the same side of the rope as you, they'd better like you.
And they aren't gonna like weird and self absorbed.
It isn't that you CAN'T succeed being an AI Generated quarterback like Russell Wilson. It's that your margin for error is about zero.
Because these are grown ass men, almost all millionaires, that aren't gonna be real interested in going to war for you when all you care about is...you. [Reply]

Probably very little fire or grit either when playing so timid. I could definitely see why players might want the backup when they see the QB playing so scared.
Of course Williams has been plenty bad in his own right independent of probable bad coaching. He is taking terrible sacks and missing easy throws.
Because he doesn't know what 'putting in the work' actually is.
He thinks he does.
He's wrong.
Again, being Patrick Mahomes isn't about playing like your ass is on fire. It's about being prepared for every possible eventuality and being able to execute in the most dire of situations when that eventuality occurs.
This guy convinced himself he could be Mahomes without that level of commitment. [Reply]

I mean he's making mistakes, but is there really evidence that he's not committed and not working his ass off? [Reply]
A grown man who sobs in his mommy's arms on TV because he lost a game is never going to be a successful NFL QB. This MFer's fate was sealed before he even finished his college career. [Reply]

He was terrible in Seattle last year also. [Reply]

Ben Johnson pretty openly said that is a job he'd want if it was open so we'll probably find out next year how good he can be with competent coaching. [Reply]

As I said prior to the draft, the Bears were in a unique spot since Gayleb was a high school star in DC. They could’ve traded back one spot with the Commies, probably picked up at least Washington’s 1st round pick next year, and still drafted Jayden Daniels, who I was on record saying was the best QB in the ‘24 draft.

He's probably improved a tick.
But the guy we saw out there in the first 3 weeks of the season was playing backward football. He wasn't reading defenses or trying to run an offense. He was trying to make all those sort of Mahomes throws with the sidearm shit and off-platform looks.
He looked for all the world like someone who didn't appreciate how difficult it is to do any of that.
And again, I think he believes he's working hard. I just don't think there's anybody in that entire organization to point out to him where his effort should be going and how to direct that energy. [Reply]

The franchise that hires Ben Johnson as HC and Robert Saleh as DC will be in great shape. [Reply]
