I’ve heard it said multiple times by people who should know such things. He had the three lowest sack rates of his season in the last 4 games. The exception was Minnesota who blitzes 30% above league average.

What about his actual numbers during clutch time or on x and long type plays?  Lowering his sack rate from the absolute worst in the league over the last three years is good but you’re setting a low bar.  Like even with this “improvement” he gets sacked 11% of the time, second worst in the league.

Given even the game he won with a game winning drive he had multiple fourth quarter turnovers, I’m going to guess his numbers in those situations still aren’t very good.  I can’t find the numbers I saw a few weeks ago but they were absolutely horrendous in those situations.

Every. Single. Time.

He can’t be fumbling twice against Minnesota in the 4th. I blame George McCaskey.

You said that I assume as a joke, but it’s pretty close to how you actually talk about Fields.

“Oh, yeah he turned it over three times in the last seven minutes but it was the one year anniversary of his hamster dying, he was grieving.”

Joe Burrow took a lot of sacks at one time.

The worst sack rate of Burrow’s career is 1.8 percentage points better than the best sack rate of Fields’ career.

Gotta hand it to the Bucs, I don’t know they saw that 3rd RB screen in a row coming.

Did I say it’s not an area he needs to improve on? Wonder what Fields’ explosive play rate is compared to other QBs. I’ll trade a few sacks for more explosive plays.

I also think sacks are an area where coaching can get better. Part of that is on the coaches. Not just Fields.

Sacks are huge drive killers.  His sack rate is not sustainable for a good QB.

In the last 10 years, this is the list of guys who started 8+ games and had a sack% over 11%:

Justin Fields 23
Justin Fields 22
Justin Fields 21
Marcus Mariota 18
Ryan Tannehill 18

You gotta admit though, that’s great play-calling.

Well sure.  But what's his PFF passing grade this year if you remove the first three games because he had a bad offensive coordinator, and remove the last 2.5 games because he hurt his thumb?
