As the Broncos how weird and self-absorbed plays in a locker room. Like I said - if you're really good, you can pull it off. When Wilson was at his peak, his weirdness was seem as charming. As he started to struggle, dude became a meme. He didn't get weirder, he just wasn't a superstar and nobody was willing to go to bat for him so he spiraled. This sort of stuff doesn't mean you're going to fail. But it really does kinda leave you working without much of a net. You'd better be good. And you'd better be good pretty damn quickly. |

When the Trojans were going 8-5 and fighting to stay out of dead last in a disbanding Pac-12 - did Caleb Williams meet anyone halfway or lean into his weird? Sure seemed to be the latter to me. He didn't handle adversity terribly well last season. As they were going 1-5 down the stretch, Williams seemed to be checking out or going MORE over the top. Guy really could've gone 0-6 (a 1 point win over Cal was his only W in his last 6 games) and then USC played their best game since probably week 3 when he decided to sit the bowl game out. That's gotta be a concern doesn't it? |

Like you said when you are winning you can get away with it. Caleb has shown nothing in the NFL to get away with it. Maybe he is the real deal and becomes a top 5 QB. I don't see it. |

I agree, but that’s the case with any team that earned a top 10 draft pick* If I was an elite prospect, I think I’d rather go to Chicago than the WSH, NE, ARZ, TEN, NYG. Probably others I’m not going to look into too much. *By the way, I misremembered earlier when I said they had another top 5 pick. They have the #9 pick. Quote:
Well he enjoyed pretty immediate success in the NFL, but regardless he was always weird. |

When winning you can let the mold grow on your shower shoes.
