I think it's time to put a rest to the Bagent QB1 talk. He is a decent backup and game manager but the talent JF1 has puts Bagent to rest. Again, I like Bagent as a long-term backup but by no means is he our QB1 of the present of future

Was watching the game last night and thought it was interesting how Chris Collinsworth kept saying how much Fields could learn from Bagent, a rookie.
Bagent holds himself with good composure, does not panic, gets the ball out quickly, and manages the game well. From what little I’ve seen of him, he also has a natural ability to read the defense. These are all the areas Fields struggles in.
However, Fields is just way more talented. He’s our starter, Bagent is our QB2, and there’s no question about it. I like Bagent a lot and love his story, but he missed some pretty easy throws and doesn’t have near the athletic ability as Justin.
Hopefully Fields learned a thing or two from staying involved and watching Tyson from the sidelines and we can see some of that mental game transition over. He’s got half a season left to save his career. Let’s wish him the best and see what happens. Bear tf down
