Greenberg’s Take on Fields

Featured Replies

There seems to be a growing national media hype about Fields this offseason. He went from a Running QB to a potential MVP Candidate.

I'm totally in on this if Justin can throw quickly.  We just haven't seen it yet.

You’re right.  He hasn’t had many weapons who got open quickly, to be fair.  And was often running for his life.  

Some of the naysayers use advanced metrics to say how bad Fields has been. However, since Week 5 of last season, he has at least been middle of the pack at worst. The problem is they either rope in his rookie stats with Nagy or the first few weeks with Getsy. 

Week 5 > Week 18 QB Rankings

EPA+CPOE Composite - 16th (ahead of Herbert, Murray, Carr, Rodgers, Jackson, Wilson, Jones, Pickett)
EPA/Play - 15th (ahead of Tannehill, Murray, Herbert, Smith, Rodgers, Jackson, Wilson, Jones, Pickett)

So Fields was actually a league average QB last with a terrible O-Line, Mooney hurt, and a new Claypool. Now he gets an upgraded O-Line, 2nd year in system, while adding DJ Moore, a healthy Mooney, Claypool knowing the offense, and Tonyan to the receiving options. 

It is hard for me to believe he will not be better just based on the situation. If he also improves personally, there is no reason to believe he can't be a top 8-10 QB this year statistically across the board.

For QB Tiers for me, it's:

Mahomes

-----------

Hurts
Burrow
Allen

-----------

Herbert
Lawrence
Jackson
Fields
Watson
Prescott

--------

R. Wilson
Smith
D. Jones
Tua
Cousins
Goff
Murray

------

Mariota
M. Jones
Carr
Pickett
