I hear you and appreciate your optimism. Fields actually could revitalize his career and become the guy. You never know. I still think the Jets will sign a QB in the later rounds just on the off chance that they might find that diamond in the rough.
I hope he follows in the path of George Blanda, who the Bears gave up on and later got to a Super Bowl.

Later

Best part is Fields is not being brought in to be the savior. It's good for Fields and good for the Jets.

Sanchez was traded up for to be the savior.
Geno was the savior.
Sam was the savior.
Zach was the savior.
Aaron was the savior.

This might be good because nobody thinks Fields is worth a shit and maybe he becomes the shit. If not who cares it's not my money.
It looks like the new Jets CS think Fields is worth more than a shit because they went in hard for him at the start of the tampering period. Maybe they think he is ideal for the offense that they are planning. I suspect that he has been offered the default starting spot and therefore this four-way QB contest in camp that some hanker for is not going to happen.

If they are planning on running the shit out of the ball then yes. If they expecting him to run a normal NFL offense then not a chance.

I thought that Kuntz was our diamond in the rough.

Loving this! No I don’t have any real faith in Fields being our franchise QB, just hoping and praying mainly. Either way, it’s a very reasonable deal that the Jets can move on from him if he doesn’t work out but if he does, JACKPOT!

30M guaranteed. This isnt bad. Reasonable money. Got two years to make it work - and not such terrible $$ hit if it doesnt.
Agreed 1,000 percent. The Jets probably weren’t going to draft anybody this year worth talking about it anyway. Even if they did, it would probably take them a year or two before they showed anything we’re talking about. So this two year deal for Fields works out great. He’s still young enough to show promise and end up being something, even though I’m not banking on that, but it is a possibility. Stranger things have happened. Look at Sam Donald as an example.

Look at Tua Tagovailoa's new back up..........................Zach Wilson............. :sneaky:

It's a good signing. High upside low risk.
I would expect to see Tyrod and Fields complete this preseason.Next season Fields and Travis will compete and if Travis shows nothing this off season, a rookie QB will be competing with Fields next off season.

Assuming you mean 'compete' rather than 'complete', the rumour was that the Jets would go in hard for Fields at the start of the tampering period by offering him the starting job, whereas the Steelers wouldn't do that. I expect Fields to go into training camp as QB1 and Tyrod and Travis to compete for QB2.

I agree the Jets probably offered Fields the Starting QB job. It really costs them nothing. If Fields wins the Starting job they can say "We knew it all along."
If Tyrod beats Fields out they can say: " The Job was his to lose." Either way they're covered.
