QB Justin Fields (2019-20 B1G Off POY, 2020 Silver Football, 2019 B1G CCG MVP, Pittsburgh Steelers)

Love this guy. Great heart, always excited for the game and his team.

Just needs one or two more things to click to really get the passing game going. Everyone should be on notice, cause he does all this and I think he's still 'just' a game manager.

I’m still not sure the game has completely slowed down yet for him. He sometimes looks like a deer in headlights on scrambles, and other times is as silky smooth as it gets. Once that starts to click, look. out.

Love what he’s been able to bring to this team with virtually no real meaningful college game experience prior to this season. Sky is the limit.

Guys remember two things:

1. This is still his first year of playing (I know, I know he is no longer a freshman at this point of the season)>

2. Up to the PSU game, everything has been easy for him. A little adversity right now will help him next week and beyond.

Kid has just scratched the surface on his talent. I think being blessed with so much talent around him, has eased him some, and he doesn't have to be superman on every play like in HS or when he played with backups at UGA.

He got some good experience yesterday. He clearly was rattled, but he pulled himself together during that last scoring drive. I hope he is healthy for TSUN.

He tries to be too perfect. The 1 interception he’s had has become an albatross around his neck. There are passes to be made that he holds just a tick to long. That K.J.TD was as beautiful as it gets.

My only concern with Fields is his foot. Looked okay after the game but I'll feel better when there's no news about it later in the week.

Eluding the rusher, planting his feet after the quick sidestep and throwing an accurate deep ball TD to Olave was a thing of beauty and showed how sharp his mechanics are.

No, he's no longer an inexperienced freshman...

It wasn't a run it was a pass call that he for some reason refused to let it go.

You’re right, what I meant was a call that resulted in Fields having to run. It should’ve been a called run to Dobbins.

 

[RugbyBuck]

We still haven’t seen his full potential but he’s what we hoped he’d be: better on the ground than Haskins, better passer than JTB.

 

[Hstead]

I stand by my comment I made earlier in this thread..............I don't want any other QB in the country at this point in the season still, he is the best "player" at that position IMHO. Some may argue he isn't the best QB. I will take the best player at that position vs QB.

This.

Really anxious to see him walking/practicing. Ankle sprains can seem ok in the moment when everything is warm and flowing-then blow up the next morning.

I assume he took the knee just so Day didn’t have to answer the question of health all week.
