being an Ohio State fan ive watched every snap of Fields' college career. What ive learned is, nothing. He plays with top talent at nearly every position. The 2 games he struggled in, one, im not sure what his problem was, the most recent BigTen championship game, he hurt his throwing thumb rather early.
I get the hate for OSU QBs, they dont pan out in the NFL, ever. Its probably more about system and the talent around them. Id take a kid from a pro system who struggled but has the measurables (Allen) over the guy who had the best of everything and comes from a non thinking system (Spread). thats just me tho.
Is Fields bad? hard to tell. Is Lawrence great? nobody really knows.
I do take issue with the "media" being all in on Fields one week, then throwing him in the trash heap the week later without mentioning his injury and how it affected him.
