But the Red Rifle went down and the plan for an apprenticeship went awry. Not sure it would have made any difference. Fields did have chances to sit and observe over his time with the Bears, and it didn't seem to change his fundamental challenge with seeing the field, seeing the defense, anticipating breaks and throwing into open windows.... and doing all of these things quickly, in rhythm. Maybe it will all click someday given time to watch and learn, and maybe Wilson will help with that. But I doubt it.
