I think the easy way to answer that is that he was always showing signs of all of these flaws in Carolina. Plus you need to factor in that he’s coming off a career injury. As an athletic QB, that’s a red flag. Were he a pocket passer, his age wouldn’t matter, but he’s currently on the wrong side of 30. He doesn’t otherwise possess the talent as a thrower and never has. I think everything you’re saying is true regarding not having an offense, showing up late to learn, mayhem in 2020, etc etc, and they’re all contributing reasons to his poor performance. But in general, he’s a run-first QB who otherwise makes bad decisions with the ball too often. He’s a career 1:1 on RTD:FUM and a career 3:2 PTD:INT. We can always highlight “that one year” but then again we can do that with Blake Bortles or Jameis Winston.
Just kidding, he’s always been smarter and more responsible with the ball than those two meatheads.
