Why tf you even post this?

Emphasising the negative impact of sacks.

Fields takes sacks at a terrible rate. Duh

[–] muzak23@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No I think it’s because Fields has to sack the QB more often

Not sure why this is downvoted. I am a Fields supporter but this is 100% true and important. If he can’t be more decisive then he’s just too limited to continue with.

I do want to add though, this is also a big data point for coaching and player acquisition/development… not just QB.

If Mr HITS Principle is preaching not to put the ball in harms way at any cost, he may be contributing to the problem. If the GM isn’t getting the linemen who can protect adequately or WRs who can separate, that could contribute as well. I think with the latter there has been A LOT of improvement since last year. I have suspicions about how Flus is coaching to this though.

I’m sure it fits vaguely somewhere in the fields drama. But I honestly don’t even get what point it’s trying to make because Fields takes too many sacks and turns the ball over too frequently.
