Breakdown Justin Fields

    Overview

  • A good quarterback can mean the world of difference in such a pass heavy league.
  • Experts don't even rank him among QB's. Either he is on a bye week or is just plain bad. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 9th with 295.98 total points (17.41 avg).
  • Currently 141.54 points behind the leader: Josh Allen
  • Average points in the past two weeks have dipped quite a bit at 17.4.
