I like to look at rookie contract QB’s in this way because it shows their most recent full length season, Will continue to do this ever game until the end of the year.
Do not take this as an endorsement for or against keeping him.
The last 17 games tracker:
The Good: His last 17 games he is at 4200 total yards and 33 total td’s, 93.2 rating.
The bad: 5 fumbles lost and 12 picks. About a 2:1 TD to turnover ratio. Sacks: 62, about 3.5 per game.
His first 17 games:
Justin Fields has a passer rating of 73.2 with 2,549 yards, 10 touchdowns and 14 interceptions in 17 games in his first 17 games in his career.
So much bitching about fumbles on this sub today. And 5 fumbles over 17 games is really nothing to worry about. Tua has 10 fumbles this year, Lamar has 5 and Josh Allen has 4. With 5-6 games remaining for each. Allen, Mahomes, Kyler, Hurts & Lawrence all had 5 or more fumbles in 2022. QBs with 12 ints or more in 2022: Dak, Cousins, Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, Mahomes, Burrow.
What can we take from this information? His stats over his last 17 games are above average at worst and pretty good at best. He clearly has plenty of room to grow, especially if we can bring in a competent offensive staff. Turnovers are, against popular belief, NOT an issue for Justin. Sacks are the obvious area where he needs to improve.
49 fumbles is a lot. 3.5 sacks/game is a lot. One game over 300 yards is a little
49 fumbles lmao wtf are you even talking about
