Fields sucks. It’s obvious. But why in the world are we playing him under center? This guy can’t take his eyes off the field, he has no business running a traditional pro offense. He should be in RPO rollouts with 1 or 2 pass options and if they’re not open, run.
They only point he should have tried to prove is that they were wrong. Instead, he proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that the comments were spot on and then some. He does not belong on the field, and if AG persists playing him, neither does he.
Per @NextGenStats, the Jets average time to sack today is 5.76 seconds. Only one team in the league is above 5.5 on the season, and the league average is 4.63 seconds. This isn't a line problem, it's a Fields and coaching problem.
I say coaching because when your QB sucks at throwing but runs like a deer then RPOs seem lime the obvious solution. Nothing is obvious with these morons.
Not to beat a dead horse, but frustration with this team is unbearable. You could have pretty much watched any game today and on both sides a QB that when on the field gives you some hope that he can hit the target on stride. But not us, not even close. He is completely and absolutely lost out there. He can’t see open targets, can not anticipate the route and he is never on target. He does not belong in the NFL and if the HC can’t immediately see that he doesn’t belong either.
I agree with most of what you have here but don't see any reason this would be the team they, or anyone, would want.
100% He NEVER throws to where the receiver WILL be…he’s always late throwing to where the receiver IS, and then half the time he’s off target because the receiver is actually, you know, moving I hate Fields … he is a TERRIBLE QB…right there with Zach…we had to endure years of that shit and here we are again
I think Justin Fields is a good QB. So Jets can stay at #1 spot for the next few years, draft any would-be-sure-fire QB prospect, and ruin his life. (Archie, are you trembling in your boots yet?)
Was thinking about the lack of long balls so had a quick look at the stats for passing: - Jets have 10 throws of 20+ yards - only the Saints have fewer - Jets have 0 throws of 40+ yards - tied worst with the Browns - Jets longest passing score was a 33 yard TD - that is the shortest distance of any team - tied with the Titans in terms of giving up the most sacks (25) Obviously they've been running the ball a lot and the stats there are decent.
In my opinion Fields is one and done. The dude can’t read, or react to a defense in time. His continued ineptitude will only bring down any positivity that might be emerging from any other parts of the team. Glenn needs to put on his big boy pants, admit his mistake, and start Taylor. That is if he expects to return to coach next year. We all make mistakes, the best ones are those that admit their mistakes.
I wonder if its Fields' $$$ that's keeping him on the field.. Could be he's mandated to play this year barring injury. Only upside is that with Fields on the field, our #1 draft position is a lock. (fingers crossed).
