Heh. The Brows selected Baker Mayfield. Lamar ends up going to the Ravens, possibly the Only Team who would have treated him this badly. It's almost as if they resent him being élite & I would argue that keeping Greg Roman there undermining their Own Offense in order to try & make Lamar look unnecessary as well as overrated was intentional.
When you factor that together with how the Browns then pursued Watson, imagine how much trouble Stefanski's Browns would have been if they had Lamar & never chased Watson? The other one was the Jets & Bears each selecting each other's busts. _Apparent_ busts.
There are a couple of analysts who have figured out parts of this but some QBs _love_ play-calling & decision-making (Peyton Manning) & others crumble under this pressure (Goff, Cousins). Fields actually reads defenses at an Elevated Level, Wilson fell to pieces when asked to look at one.
The Bears' offense starting in '22 (don't count '21, both rosters were so weak that both QBs likely would have put up identical #s) was "hand of the ball X3 then toss a slant or screen. Repeat."
Fields was bored to tears. Wilson once he got an offense was overwhelmed. This is a perfect example of how stats don't tell the whole story. Wilson wasn't mentally ready yet. Fields had terrible luck as shown by this reel of his '21 INTs th-cam.com/video/glpaya0xz-4/w-d-xo.html.
People falling down, & if you read the comments, running the wrong routes. But his #1 WR was Darnell Mooney who swats away no less than 3 passes as if he thought they were gonna bite him. If _he_ had Garrett Wilson & the Jets, his throws that hit his receivers in the hands would be praised.
He & Lamar are the two biggest examples of their teams not wanting them I can think of at present. But this preference for taking control or fearing it is also why Sean McVay traded Goff for Stafford. He was getting nowhere trying to give Goff more responsibility.
One conversation with Stafford & he realized that he had that one thing lacking in Goff, that he *liked* being able to read defenses & adjust to them.
Lucky thing for Goff that the Lions coaches love exerting macro-levels of control in their schemes. He'd have floundered on the Jets too.
