I’m not talking fantasy bro

Define the metric then. Fantasy points are pretty good way to measure production.

I’m not really looking to place a bet on this. I think people are hyping up Fields because of the success of guys like hurts and lj8, but fields is not necessarily them and his team is much further behind than theirs were when they broke out.

I could be wrong, but I look at fields and I see a talented ball carrier and below average passer. I don’t really think his RB room took a step forward. I like Khalil Herbert but I don’t think he’s a 20+ touch a game guy for a full season, and I think David Montgomery did a lot of the dirty work that allowed Herbert to thrive. Montgomery is a flat out better back than Foreman, although Roschon Johnson was a great pick for them so we’ll see how much he is able to contribute this season.

He does have a better WR room this year, so we’ll see if he is actually able to get through his progressions and make on schedule throws consistently this season. I also think his line has a lot of question marks, though in theory it should be better than last season.

He could definitely break out this year, I do expect him to get better, but I definitely am not as high on him as many of the analysts seem to be.

I’ve seen many people confidently placing fields as the best QB in the NFCN, which is preposterous because he was the worst in the north last season. What has he done to earn the confidence that he’ll be better than Cousins, let alone Goff this season?

Nice writeup
I agree it's not a lock that he breaks out. Probability wise I think it's more likely than not.

Again define "better"

A better passer, higher QBR, completion %, Passing yds, TDs.. Probably not.

But when you consider he will probably have over 1k yards rushing.. 👀

I watched more bears football then I probably should have but I never claimed I did? I was also referring to Zeal not you.

yeah, I got that

turns out he just picked up justin fields off waivers in fantasy and probably thinks hes some expert now.

Now i understand why he was so excited about bijan.

Yeah because Bijan is going to ball the fck out and so is Fields. You think I'm a Falcons or a Bears fan?

you are overhyping players based on your ff projections.

Ff production is based on performance on the field

Like I said, it's a pretty good measurement of production.show me a better system?
