Lance has the better arm, Lance is the better runner, and Lance also is a much better processor/decision maker. Add to that the fact that Lance has experience under center and in a huddle and these guys are nothing alike save they both run 4.5's as a qb.
Fields is more accurate on the intermediate stuff, that's his one and only advantage over Trey.
Good summary, roast - I totally agree.
Not a good look mayo...too much cream in your pants getting up into your eyes?
Sorry, man - I'm a Lance man.
Your choice is your choice...just stick with it lol.
Also almost everything that dude said is wrong...so agreeing with him means you may want to go back and check the film.
Would love to hear what I'm wrong on? I've watched all the YouTube breakdowns by guys like JTO, Simms, Warner,.etc. It's pretty obvious the issue with Fields is processing and decision making. Whether it's a wide open receiver he doesn't see or a bad decision under pressure that's his biggest weakness and why he's gonna be the 4th qb off the board at best. Outside of arm talent, processing and decision making is the most important skill nfl teams are looking for. Lance has that, he rarely misses a read or makes a terrible decision.
As a runner Lance is also better. 1100 yards and 6.5 a pop as a nineteen year old. 140 in his only game this year. He's not elite but he's really good and natural with the ball in his hands.
Fields is great at the ten to twenty yard stuff. That's the one clear advantage he has on Lance. And that's it. Throw in all the pro style stuff Lance has done that Fields hasn't and this is the reason Lombardi says niners aren't even considering Fields.
OSU runs a different offense than some other schools. Fields has gone through his progressions like a champ enough times where I have no major concerns about him being able to do it consistently.
You're also pumping up Lance in a huge way when he's got plenty of bad tape in terms of wrong decisions. His decisions just don't result in turnovers as much or end up as run plays. Things that become harder to do when facing tougher competition.
Fields playing hero ball doesn't bother me. It's an easy thing to fix. When Fields made mistakes he fixed them moving forward. Most of his bad decisions were trying to make plays when they weren't there to be made. Coachable. Blitz pickup....also coachable. I also think a lot of those issues were related to their lack of practice due to covid. Once again Lance gets the benefit of the doubt here because he only played one game then started draft prep...and yet when people bring up that one game which wasn't exactly great as a passer you hear "well it was just one game and he was pressing"
So Fields plays hero ball in a shortened season knowing they have to play their best vs any team to make the playoffs and he's a bad decision maker...but Lance is all good?
Compare their deep passing accuracy. Fields blows Lance away...and that's Fields' bad season vs Lance's great season too.
So basically you made some assumptions with no proof behind them and then finished your post off ignoring the most critical part of what makes Fields better, ironic considering you claim Lance has the better arm.
