Exactly. He didn't need to wait for receivers to be open 95% of the time in college. They were just open.
Yep. Burrow had that, too, but he made the jump.
He knows he can run, which often limits his patience to let the WRs get open. Good QBs can turn bad receivers into passable ones and good receivers into greats. Fields and Love are just too concerned with not screwing up, that they limit their own potential.
If you look at the video, the ball should have been out of his hand at the :09 mark. The safety is the key to that pattern. No anticipation. You have to throw the ball as the river is breaking open, not when he is open.

I thought it might be a poker reference and you’d gone too meta for me.
No one will be good in this offense.
Especially someone who can't read a defense and has zero pocket presence.
Because it kind of always has been, with the brief exception of Tressel, or Tuesdale, or Tsomethingfucksheadstick and Jay Cutler. I have been able to predict bears offensive plays, presnap, at about a 75% clip for decades. The entire organization is trash, and thank God they didn't get the chance to destroy Patrick Mahomes.
Getsy and Flus can choke on my dick, but damn dude, for such shitty playcalling, there are dudes running fucking free EVERYWHERE. He has missed at least 3 surefire TDs this year, and God only knows how many wide open downfield throws.
At the risk be being accused of felating Fields, we've had 20+ points in 6 of those 12 losses too. He gets slammed for his W/L record but fucking hell, even when he's putting points on the board it doesn't matter.
Ya, the D-line is godawful.
What do you define as a "running QB"? Lamar Jackson and Daniel Jones both just got big second contracts, and I'd definitely call both of them running QBs. Hell, Vick got two massive contracts in his career. If you don't let him run, then there's no reason to even keep him. You can't just take away one of his biggest strengths. He looks significantly worse this year than he did last year passing, but that's because he's being forced into being a full-time pocket passer which he never will be.
What if I told you, Chicago could get Nagy and Trubiskey back? It might take an 8th round draft pick, and maybe some Arby's gift certificates, but we can get it done.
