Maybe I’m naive but I don’t see why someone believing another QB prospect is better than our own automatically means he/she wants our QB to fail or will be bust. Why is everything so binary? I think fans ought to be able to compartmentalize QB evaluations from rooting for the team and players. Am I crazy?

I wasn’t accusing you of anything. I was giving my perspective from someone who watched ALL his games and not just the box scores. Take for what you will. I’ve watched every Jets snap of Sam’s and every snap of Fields thus far. If given a choice, give me Fields every day of the week and twice on Sundays. I also agree that he hasn’t been “fantastic”. Saying he has, undersells what he’s capable of. More context about on his struggles for those who care: His left tackle is 40 years old and was out of football a few months ago. His right tackle is a 4/5th string backup. They simply can’t block the edges. When forced to pass against teams with good DEs on either side (e.g. Bucs & Browns), it gets ugly quickly. He’s also been very unlucky with his INTs. 2 were tipped, 2 were deep passes thrown thinking he had a free play (offsides & 12 man on the field), 1 defensive lineman dropping in front of a shallow cross, 1 WR slips and the one yesterday where the defensive lineman makes a terrific play to jump and intercept at the LOS. All this is to say that he’s not getting INTs due to poor decisions, bad throws and throwing into coverage. I think there’s enough room in the NFL for Fields to become a good player and it has no impact on Zach Wilson.
