Fields is a one read type of guy. He doesn’t understand defenses. Make him drop back and take away his number 1 option and he holds onto the ball. 
 

The dude has the most raw talent but yeah

He stays in the pocket too long going through reads. Going through progressions hasn’t been an issue. Somebody needs to tell him after three seconds he has to run. Stop standing there looking for more. Just run.

I’m not convinced he truly knows what he’s looking at downfield. It’s why you rarely see him end up throwing it once he looks off his first option.

Yeah hopefully he will learn to roll out while keeping his eyes down the field Mahomes style.

This is where most of his big plays earlier in the year came from Olave is covered on the short route, fires to Wilson deep.

neither INT is on him and he still looks very much like the best player on the field

 

I doubt scouts are making too much of his performance

What I see is a passing attack that after the first two drops over the middle, stopped attacking the middle of the field. Almost every throw is outside near the sidelines and I’m not sure what’s going on.

ND shouldn't be in with a loss.

    • He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not. 
    • Fantasy tiers? Who gives a fug
    • Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
