I think a lot of limitations in an offense become visible in the 4th quarter especially when everyone knows that the team has to throw the ball.
It's fair to say that not all those limitations were Fields. Clearly at times there were issues with protection, sometimes it would be a clear drop by the receiver, and other times, it was Fields. For whatever reason, the offense often just did not click in key situation and especially known passing situations.
Now having said that, Fields is/was integral to the offense struggling in those known passing situations.
I mean, just look at these situational stats from nfl.com. It's not a pretty picture. Again, I agree it's not all Fields, but...he owns a good chunk of it too.
