He outplayed Dalton in the preseason, the issue is a bad coach who is trying to protect him from their bad O line and poor play calling. If Fields plays it creates a serious challenge for us as his mobility may allow them to throw down field. In week 1 they were the ONLY team not to attempt a pass 15+ yards down field, that would be ideal for us.
Yes, against Rams in Regular Season, Fields is off to a bad start. I am not talking preseason of vanilla defenses. Nor am I talking how Fields looked at Ohio State. I am a long time Ohio State Fan, but few NFL QBs come from OSU. A good RB and DB college, and some good LBs and WR's. Just very few QBs from Buckeyes cut it in NFL. I consider Burrow more LSU than Ohio State, Burrow in that LSU Saints offense like Brees was in.. Fields isn't going to be able to run in the NFL as he did at Ohio State, often against weak opponents, and that is what I think keeps Buckeye QBs from making it in the NFL. The NFL Defenses never let these Buckeye QBs run wild like in The Big 10.
