The "Deification of Drew" is something that I wrote about in 2022 and some of us most certainly have that view point.
I still stand by us sucking at QB evaluation because we are so busy looking for the next Drew instead of seeing these players for who they are. Drew gave us 15 awesome seasons but Drew is Drew. We can't see what others actually bring to the table and their actual skill because of our silent mantra, WWDD. LOL
Truth be told, this goes back to how we are actually watching the game. The "sky is falling" didn't really start until the Siemian starts and then AK got hurt. What folks don't realize is after Drew retired, the mantle of starter went to Winston (this we know), and through 6 games, he was top 10 in nearly every stat and metric assigned to a QB with a group of starting WRs that can barely crack a 53 team roster today. We would be hard pressed to find someone equal or better than Drew considering that came with 20 years of experience.
