It probably started with trading for the wrong QB as a solution without doing your due diligence. Given how quickly Denver traded for Russ, they might have panicked when they lost out on Rodgers. Hard to give them the benefit of the doubt right now.

Given how little you gave up for Russ, which is what made it appear as a slam dunk/no-brainer, maybe you just got taken advantage of? I agree on passing over Fields. Z. Wilson and Jones are already busts/never could be good in the first place and Fields has life on a team with the worst overall weapons and worst line in the game.

Probably not? Everyone was feeling like, at least around here, that Denver gave up a bunch of scrubadubs and a smattering of picks for a franchise QB. I think that's the difference. Maybe the issue was giving him that massive and long of a deal. All I know is that GMs are judged on results only. Seems that the logic and good business practices are no longer how we view them. Paton got booty-holed.

- John Elway“When we do find that guy, we’ve got to have the continuity on the offensive side to where we can train him and develop him and get him there. This is our fourth offense in probably three or four years. Quarterbacks need to be developed. You don’t find one ready-made. We got to have a solid system in place for when we do go after whatever guy it may be, a young guy or a trade or whatnot.”
