    Such high expectations for a 4 yr qb

    They have no intermediate to deep threat other than Pickens and occasionally if Austin can shake loose. I fear we are going to see another season of "small ball" unless they have someone on the roster that breaks out and I don't see it. So, although I usually agree with STD on his opinion of running QB's, I didn't see any panic either time when Fields ran. There wasn't anyone open down field and he got what he could.

    The flip and flop of RT and LT is not great either.

    Have him battle it out with Dan.
    Put Dan on the RT spot.
    Solidify your starters then talk depth.

    I love the "need versatile players" approach but all knows why BJ was drafted and it's not to play RT.

    Because by the time He realized the Qb was running, and not going to throw....he was on the wrong side

    I have no fascination with running QBs but with this oline so far it's there only chance. Lol

    They probably want Slash back too… at least Steelers at that time figured out he was a better wr than qb

    I've said this 100 times, but every Wrs, and TE I've ever talked to when not on record hates running their routes, and turn around, and see here comes the Qb

    In recent history......Lamar Jackson, Jalen Hurts, Cam Newton are the main QBs that are half running back. All 3 have had significant downtime due to injuries.
    I can believe it. Spend all of that effort and turn around to catch the ball......and think WTF, my qb is about to pass me! lol

    You are correct. If you get enough of them ....just by percentages they will...., but guess what.....if You have enough women playing Qb....they will eventually win a SB also. So....:shrug:
    What's that prove??

    It looked like his ankle got twisted to me, or some lower leg injury.
