Couldn’t get two yards just now.

Bad play design. Even future first-ballot HOFers can't work with that shitty hand.

no way that play works, even if he goes outside. They had it covered

They showed a different angle from behind the line on the broadcast. There was a hole on the left side.

He would still be running if he ran the play as designed. The trap block was slowed a bit as the lineman was a half step slow getting to his pull landmark, but it is painfully obvious that this was supposed to be run behind the LG or LT.

They actually had the play set up perfectly, but seems a few things happened.

First off, Fields panicked when he saw the pulling lineman stumble and freelanced.

Secondly, Fields still thinks he can outrun NFL defensive players to the edge, he did that a few times 2 years ago, but looks to be either a half step slower or is a bit more cautious in the run game due to all the hits he has taken. You even saw him throttle down on the long run he had longer in the game.

However, the most obvious reason this failed is that the Browns did not believe that Fields was capable of throwing an accurate pass into a tight window, so they vacated the middle of the field and had both corners play with inside leverage.

The play is a textbook lesson on how NFL teams defend Justin Fields and why there will always be a well-defined ceiling on his career.

He had one awesome run around the edge later in the game.

All of this, plus the fact that the Browns slanted their defense the opposite way that the Steelers were going to run.

That could have been a TD.

Imagine, instead of pissing down your leg and fumbling the ball numerous times on drives close and late in the 4th quarter, a QB can engineer two, back-to-back scoring drives to tie the game and force OT. The Bears have a QB worth building around indeed.

Where does he end up next year...NYG?...that would be entertaining

I could see this for sure if Daboll is still there.

But I don't think that he will be.

Fields lost his job to Wilson. Let that sink in for a minute.

This many years in the league and the Steelers can't trust him to run play-action passing plays.
Says it all.
