Wait, did you mention... disappointing performance in the field? Right on this week?
Imagine this scenario: you've been on a team for maybe 4 or 5 seasons, a team that you know is in rebuilding mode. You get mostly under .500 seasons and while being a top player in the league, you still have an amazing record of zero playoff wins... mainly because you have yet to manage to take your team to the post season. So, for a few in real life months you have endured a lot of losses and tough games against teams fighting for different objectives as the ones on your team.
And everything comes to this season. You are the top player in the league, all your hard work has come to this. Your team drafted amazingly well the past few seasons and the young core of the franchise is now in full speed, exactly on your last season before regression. Damn, even the schedule seems to be helping, 2 home games to start the season, to get your morale up to face the rest of the league on your playoff hunt. The hunt you have been chasing for a long time. And what happens?
22 completions in 51 attempts, only 184 yards, zero touchdowns and 3 interceptions and a quarterback rating of 28.6. Worst game in a career. Freaking perfect.
