The problem with looking at his stats like this from a boxscore vacuum is you don’t get the full story. VS the Browns, He threw a 65 yard DIME on the button to Robert Tonyan that Tonyan just flat out dropped. That goes for a TD and changes that entire game. Both of his INTs in this game were on Hail Mary throws and one of them literally hit the turf and the NFL never changed the ruling for some reason lol.

Vs Detroit, late in the 4th Q, he throws another deep shot dime to rookie Tyler Scott. Scott inexplicably slows down on the route and misses him by a foot. If he connects on that the Bears beat Detroit.

You are what you consistently do, not that 1 pass that 1 time in that 1 game.

Fields has consistently been maybe the 25th best QB in the NFL for 3 years running now.

You also don't need a boxscore to see he's a 1 read QB who after 3 years still doesn't know how to go through progressions while staying calm in the pocket. If his 1st option isn't there, he's pretty lost. Heck, I may actually be incorrect because he doesn't tuck and run immediately so maybe he's trying to go through progressions but point being, he can't do it.
