So... you’ve been lead to believe Justin Fields is a one read quarterback

Here is why you are wrong

(Thread)
Fields scanning full field and delivering a dime? Impossible
Fields running Y-Cross right to left full field scan
Y-Cross again but reading left to right
Fields reading curls from left to right
Fields reads to his left, climbs up in the pocket to escape pressure and hits his checkdown
NW film quality was ass but here is him scanning into his checkdown again
Fields reads right to left. Rotation to single hi (MOFC) shuts down his first read. Slides to his left to avoid pressure and throws a dime to his third read
Fields scans right to left and hits his third read for the TD

No you goobers his middle TE was not open by the time he sat his route down the safety behind him was closing in
Scans middle to his left. Hits Wilson on the checkdown for the first on third down
Reads deep left. Nothing is open and moves down to his checkdown for a small gain
Rollout to his right. This is supposed to be a “one read” to Olave but fields says fuck that and throws a dime to Jaxon Smith-Njigba

What a grab
There are so many more clips to choose from and I don’t want to clutter people’s TL’s. This narrative that fields is a read QB is just plain wrong

I have no idea where it came from or why it exists but it’s lazy and cliche. Watch the tape
I legit have 10-20 more clips I just don’t feel the need to post because they’re redundant

It’s 2021 and these narratives about black QB’s STILL exist

Do better
