Are you comparing college numbers to NFL?

I would get tired of that after a while. When I go to work I walk upstairs.

My apologies, but is there a chance you can fill me in? I really don't feel like going back through the thread to find it.

Wait what? Isn’t that what everyone has been doing in these Caleb vs Justin debates?

Kinda hard not to when literally every thread on this board turns into a Fields vs rookie QB debate.

It’s not too bad. I travel 7 days and I’m off 7 days. Get to see the wife and kids a lot and that’s all that matters.
Oh and banning people people here like a bully

Tbf I tried stopping that, as far as your other inquiry I mentioned his team was built well and his team wasn’t full of nobodies as you stated

Of course not. Caleb runs just as much as Justin did IN COLLEGE. Neither is a RB, but since they fit a certain narrative it's an easy and lazy assessment.

I don't believe I have ever compared the two statistically?
I tend to contain my Fields comments to what he's done with the Bears.

Gotcha. Thanks.
I still maintain that Nico Collins doubling his career numbers this season with Stroud is the direct result of Stroud being a bad ass and getting the ball to his weapons like a good QB is supposed to.

I’m not saying you have, I’m saying that the majority of this board and online have. I understand why as that’s all they have for now but they don’t consider competition played, weapons on each team, schemes, lines etc. If anything compare their college careers. I’m wary on Williams because of who he played

Justin Fields has been at his best running the ball, right or wrong?

In the NFL and even that’s debatable. I’d say his best is against man coverage

I hear ya, man. Some of these arguments are batshit crazy! I just think Fields has reached his ceiling and sticking with him will only lead to more of the same due to his struggles as a passer.
Williams isn't even my favorite QB in this class but I do think he's about as talented of a passer that I have seen in quite some time. I hate comparisons but the kid does some Aaron Rodgers type-o-shit at times that is enough to peak my interest.

His best highlights from the 22 season were runs. That's about the extent of the claim he is only good at running.

He torched the Lions and Falcons in man but looked clueless against zone coverage way more often than not. I can say that Fields has one of the prettiest deep balls in the league though. It really is a thing of beauty. It's the rest of it though that drives me bonkers.
He's just missing something as a passer and I just do not think he's ever going to take that next step. To me, he's not shown enough to change my mind.
Been a fan of this team for 30+ years, so I've witnessed my fair share of pretenders at the QB position.
I started this season fully entrenched on the Fields bandwagon but he just never took the next step.

I disagree with this as he has improved each year

His rushing numbers are significantly better than his passing numbers. He doesnt struggle as a runner, he struggles as a passer. This is a fact.

Small improvements though. He's not leaps and bounds better, even with D.J. Moore.
Agree to disagree.

Look at this. Civil discourse.
