and has a ridiculous superstar-like 178 running yards

Even if this were true (it's not) if your QBs best attribute is his running, your QB sucks. This isn't high school or a service academy.

Fans: I just want Justin to show progress

Running a lot against the Lions isn't progress; we already know he can do that. Throwing to a wide, wide, WIDE open DJ Moore from a clean pocket isn't progress. We already know he can hit receivers who are "Ohio State" open with no pressure.

You're super quick to throw out Passer Rating for games. What was Fields' last night? 87.3. How about his Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt? 4.98. Not good. How about his "combined yards" that Fields fans love to scream about? 276. Even counting his rushing yards, which is something we don't have to do for other QBs to try to prop them up, he still can't hit 300 yards.

Bottom line is: the one word that best describes Justin Fields is inconsistent. He can do most of the things a QB1 can do some of the time. He can't do all the things most of the time.
