He's a helluva runner but his fumbles hurt the team. Off to a new start Like the kid but hope he fails in Shit City Fields first season was with lame duck Nagy as coach. He was on the hot seat and played Andy Dalton ahead of his rookie QB. Season 2 had a new coach but a defensive one who hired a poor OC and didn't upgrade their O-line or weapons. So Fields scrambled a lot and nearly broke Lamar's QB rushing record. Season 3 they brought in a legit receiver and used a first round pick on the O-line but still had a bottom 3 center constantly giving up pressure up the middle. This time they are going to draft a QB, probably Caleb Williams and added another couple of weapons in Allen and Swift and swapped out their center. Maybe he'll have a chance with their new OC but the coach is on the hot seat again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|SF2| Posted March 19 Author Report Share Posted March 19 7 hours ago, sparky151 said: Eh, it's closer than you might think. Lawrence has higher volume numbers but for efficiency, Fields is in the neighborhood as a passer and a much better runner (though Lawrence is better than you might guess). In Lawrence's big year of 2022, his ESPN QBR was slightly lower than Fields (who ran for 1100 yards that year and got an MVP vote). Lawrence has a better NFL passer rating but not by a lot. Their PFR approximate value scores are equal. Lawrence is a big upgrade for Jacksonville compared to what they had before him. So they regard him as their franchise QB and aren't looking for his replacement yet. If Chicago had Carolina's 2nd round this year and first next year instead of vice versa, they wouldn't be looking to replace Fields. They would give him a couple more weapons and a decent center so he has a chance. In draft hypeland, Lawrence was a "generational" prospect. Fields had a college career that compares favorably with Caleb Williams. In Lawrence’s defense, his first year under Meyer was about as dysfunctional a season as anyone could have imagined. Both QBs went to trash organizations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The organization failed him from the beginning by giving him no weapons and a coaching change between years 1-2. I don’t want him to succeed in Pittsburgh or anywhere in the AFC, but otherwise I hope he gets a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 Nike and Oregon destroyed uniform class. The NFL has at least tried to hold it back somewhat, but I fear it’s only a matter of time (and money) before they become like the NBA and allow 57 uniform combinations 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of like how EPL teams have several different combos for road games where their primary uni would conflict with the home team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griever Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I'd say four max... - Home - Away - Alternate - Throwback This would give teams enough flexibility without wading into NBA territory 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a 3-kit limit (home/away/third), but teams change the combo every year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current trend is (thankfully) toward brighter colors, and this is going the opposite direction, eliminating the red numbers. Royal blue with generous amounts of red would have worked so much better. Glad I'm not a Texans fan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|BlackJesus| Posted March 23 Report Share Posted March 23 ^ Chiefs giving away Sneed for a 3rd Rd pick next year is absurd. This is where it benefits the Bengals to have Mike Brown who drives a hard bargain and doesn't fold so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That also means the Bengals miss trade opportunities such as last year when Vegas, Atlanta, and Tennessee all wanted to trade into the end of round 1 to take Levis. We could have taken advantage of that but instead Arizona got to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wrong call was in who they drafted (Murphy). If they just took Sam Laporta instead, who they liked and wanted but felt was too high, then they look like geniuses.

Don't give up on Myles Murphy to quickly. He played well as a rook and will see more time now with the experience from it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
