He's making about $700k right now. When he's making $21 million next year...different kettle o' fish. If he doesn't make an AFC Championship game before 2021 the bloom will be off the rose. As soon as a QB gets that big contract he goes from being a tough-nosed kid to a spoiled, overpaid veteran bum to a portion of the fanbase.
Look at Raiders fans and Derek Carr. They were skeptical when he was a rookie, then they loved the guy. He gets a big contract and now they are laughing at what a brittle crybaby he is and they're dying to unload him for two first round picks on some QB needy team.
