Fields rarely got to throw the ball last year. He eclipsed 25 passes only twice I think. Never eclipsing 30. A large number of games were under 22. Sam Howell throws it 48 times a game.

Some of the other 32 starts he was absolutely electric. Just not necessarily from the pocket.

Which is what they need to see to justify keeping him - pocket passing.

It’s great that he can run the football, but he is not a running back and if he was we wouldn’t be talking about potentially paying him 9 figures next year.  A QB getting rushing yards needs to be a supplement to his passing - he needs to be able to move the ball reliably with his arm and stop turning the ball over.  He has yet to show he can do that.

At some point potential doesn’t mean shit.

At some point.

Do you think his passing ability has anything to do with the decision not to let him throw very often?

The Chicago Bears have done almost everything they can to fuck this kid up. His development plan should carry criminal charges.

It’s one either because the coaches don’t trust him to throw the ball or two, he just hangs onto it too long and starts running with it instead of reading his progressions and throwing the fucking ball.

And yes, Justin needs to be more consistent.

They should have had a better development plan. Sink or swim. Take his lumps. Instead the defensive head coach and the overwhelmed rookie OC played conservative games in order to keep games close.

I think there are a lot of reasons for that.

You really don’t think it’s possible they called conservative games to play to their QB’s strengths and weaknesses?  Not possible at all?

I’ve seen about 6-8!games where they played to his strengths. He was good in just about all of them. Perfect? No. He’s young.
