Desmond Ridder commanded more straight up equity than fields. That tells me the league is not only racist, but stupid, lazy, and uninventive. You can think Fields is ass but on no planet is he worse than Ridder
Its the play style breh. They just dont believe in QBs who run and QBs who run and dont win(which was more of an organization issue). In terms of league wide status. An ORGANIZATION may/can believe it but not across 32 teams.





And before people overreact no Fields isnt on Lamar's level. Its just how how non traditional passers get viewed around the league when their team isnt 100% sold.

Teams are quick to think Sam Darnold can work in any system despite how bad he's been because his style fits what they looking for.

It’s antiquated. It’s dumb. It’s lazy. It’s not surprising.

Lamar let this type of talk get to his head and it’s why he’s not a Super Bowl champion. If he played his game and ran in the AFC championship game, the ravens would’ve destroyed the Chiefs. Instead he tried playing like they want him to play

Lamar situation was more of the owners refusing to set a pattern of consecutive fully guaranteed contracts and providing any negotiation leverage for Lamar.

Bears overplayed their hand, teams no the Bears had no leverage. Trade isn’t reflective on Fields ability/talent.

Controlling the workforce as it relates to player contracts is more important than winning. Owners may have lost the battle (Lamar winning MVP), but they won the war with Lamar, Herbert, and Burrow conforming to the standard wage scale. Deshaun remains the only outlier.

What no one considers, this fcks up his (Fields) financial future

Hurts had one good yr and got $250M from that

Fields will get bargain deals for the rest of his career because he likely will not get an opportunity to play in Y4 and will miss a normal extension for QBs after their 3rd or 4th season

Steelers gonna treat this man like Slash

Eagles should've traded for him :snoop:

For sure. Ravens should have ran more with him and the Rbs.

I remember Draft Guru's saying Lamar needed to finish the season strong (which he did outside the AFC Championship) to help Jayden Daniels draft status.

Some people are ready to turn on Jalen Hurts. Its important brehs like that play well for others to get a shot (drafted high and backed by a team):yeshrug:

Still surprised they quickly pivoted to Kenny Pickett.

Now we talking 🎯
It’s in the best interest of the Steelers to start Russ throughout the season. Fair or meritocracy doesn’t exist when there’s $ on the line.
