It began two years back when he had that historic start of the season and was really considered by most to be the favorite to win MVP, only to see himself crumble in the second half and suck so bad you would think he was suffering from athletic bipolar disorder. That's more likely the Russ you are getting, the one who crumbled in the second half.

We shall see. Looking back (quick glance) back to 2018, there really wasn't much difference in his TD/INTs for the first half of a year vs the second half. In 2020, the first half was skewed thanks to two 5 TD games and two 4 TD games. I don't know who was injured at any time in those years, but looking at the raw data... there's no real trend of falling part in the 2nd half of any season.
Last year, after missing 3 weeks, it was a slow grind the first 2 games back @ GB and vs AZ, but he finished well in the final 7 games with 15 TDS and 3 INTs.
Suggesting Wilson has fallen off a cliff is a bit out there, but I'm happy to see him prove you incorrect.
