Justin Fields Looked Great Justin Fields may be the most polarizing quarterback in the league. If you aren’t a Chicago Bears fan, you may look at his stat lines and think he can’t throw or make the correct decisions, but last Sunday, he illustrated more than promise; He indicated a play style that’s dominant and repeatable.  Fields looked decisive and stayed calm in the pocket, even with Sam Mustipher and Larry Borom on the offensive line. Mustipher has repeatedly indicated why he’s a liability to the offense and a threat to Field’s health. It seems as if Fields has no…

From draft board climber to underperforming absurd expectations, Dameon Pierce, running back of the Houston Texans, is a polarizing player for many fantasy owners. Pierce resembles Clyde Edwards-Helaire’s rookie fantasy journey. Edwards-Helaire ascended draft boards from the fourth/third round to the first. Fantasy owners placed unrealistic expectations on the first-year running back, making his season seem like a failure. In reality, if he was drafted in the third/fourth round, fantasy owners would’ve been content.  Pierce has shown promise, and Head Coach of the Texans, Lovie Smith, understands the importance of creating opportunities for the young playmaker. “He’s earned the right to…

Considering last year’s performance, Allen Robinson is on a short leash for many fantasy owners; after his Week I debut with the Rams, many may be willing to trade him for a bag of peanuts. Robinson caught only 1-of-2 targets for 12 yards in Week I. That said, he played 97% of the downs, and coincidentally enough, he was quite open. Why didn’t Stafford target Robinson then? For one, Stafford was pressured 38% of the time, halting his passing progressions. https://twitter.com/nickfalato/status/1568320651072774144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1568320651072774144%7Ctwgr%5E3aa6b0d6c73eac9e0c2ad86c8efbbabc2a241fde%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheramswire.usatoday.com%2F2022%2F09%2F10%2Frams-allen-robinson-bills-targets-routes-film%2F Head Coach of the Los Angeles Rams, Sean McVay, took responsibility for Robinson’s quiet debut. “This is where we’ve got…

From a two-star quarterback recruit in high school to an FBS wide receiver, to the Chicago Bears defensive end, fifth-round selection, Dominique Robinson has had quite the journey to the NFL.  Touted as a project, the 174th pick in the 2022 draft has already turned heads. In week one, Robinson played 28 downs, only 41% of the game. He recorded the second most tackles with seven, five of which were solo, and also sacked Trey Lance twice—all while going head-to-head against nine-time Pro bowler Trent Williams and former first-round pick Mike McGlinchey. https://twitter.com/Zack_Pearson/status/1569074194268274688?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1569074194268274688%7Ctwgr%5Ee8ab06c314a968e001733e93f44c262be9e10074%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nbcsports.com%2Fchicago%2Fbears%2Fbears-dominique-robinson-uses-veteran-tactic-create-pressure-line In high school, Robinson wanted to focus…

Bad Mouthing the Chicago Bears seems like a regular day occurrence in the life of pundits. Why do these so-called NFL experts make such uneducated hot takes? It comes down to one word… Limelight. On September 13, former NFL Head Coach Mike Martz discussed the Chicago Bears and San Fransisco 49ers game on @the33rdteam. I don’t know if I’ve seen such a bad performance by a quarterback. He was completely awful. Right now, they’re a team without hope.” Said Martz regarding the Bears’ second-year quarterback, Justin Fields. https://twitter.com/NFL_DovKleiman/status/1569709365749518342 Mike Martz is the same guy who didn’t see enough talent in…
