re: Is Mathis looking better than Fields did last spring?*

That wasn’t exactly what happened, but yes Fields made a bad decision there.

Seriously, how many of y’all would take Mathis over Fields this season on the field?

I’m fine with Fields being gone. I feel like he was a distraction to our team. But to say Mathis is a better QB is legitimately dumb. Go watch his film. He has poor fundamentals, and isn’t as good of a runner or thrower as Fields.

He has a high upside, but so much of it has to do with expectations. Fields didn’t live up to his in Athens. Mathis won’t have that same issue.

I would. Mathis has shown he doesn’t panic in the pocket, Fields has proven over and over he does. If Mathis has decent pocket presence this early in his career it’s only gonna improve from here. I’ll take Mathis all day long over JF.
