I was gonna say, Kyler Murry, Wilson, Watson, Carr... he is already below some non-QBs.Wilson is washed, his dedication to football has expired. That is why Seattle traded him. Watson may still have elite talent, but that head tells me he isn't made for that position.
Could be wrong, but I think we see a much better year from Wilson.
I don't think so. Better? Yeah, possibly. MUCH better? No way. You don't have a year like he had last year and dramatically improve at 34 years old.

I agree. I saw signs of Wilson declining a year or two before he was traded. Broncos got killed in that trade, I think.

The Broncos got killed in that trade no matter what. Considering what they gave up, unless Wilson takes them to the Super Bowl, they got killed. And I don't see Wilson doing that any time soon.But he'll have a better year in '23. Whatever decline you saw a few years ago obviously wasn't age related. It may have been ego-related and that might continue to sabotage him, but I don't think so. Last year was a coaching disaster. I think we see a whole different Wilson this year with Sean Payton.
