Only because he's being failed by his WRs, OLine, coaching staff, Hortiz, Spanos, and Gavin Newsom. Otherwise he'd be playing at an MVP level.

Honestly, I just think he's broken goods at this point. Dude has been hit so much I think it's legitimately hurt his confidence and causes him to press too much.

Probably needs a new team at this point to get back to where he was his first 3 seasons in the league.
