I think people need to be more aware that "finishes" (i.e. total accumulated points) aren't necessarily a great metric for choosing Player A over Player B.
Wilson is a great example of this. He was incredible the first half of the season - only to torpedo teams in the second half. If the objective is to win championships, one needs to walk the line between high ceiling and consistency. Yes, that's tough to predict.
But Wilson specifically has shown this trait.
- In 2020 he threw for more than 2 TDs once after week 7. And five weeks he threw for none or one.
- In 2019, he didn't throw for more than 2 TDs after week 9 and four times he had a zero or one.
- In 2018, he threw for more than 2 tds twice after week 9, but he also had a zero and one.
Wilson is probably a top three QB that I'd want quarterbacking my favorite real life team. He's just not a guy I'm comfortable with having on my fantasy team - which I have. And I haven't looked back once he's subsequently on someone else's team.
