I feel about as confident in Justin as I do in Russell. I feel they are pretty similar in terms of playstyle just where Justin doesn't have the experience compared to Russell he makes up for it in athleticism. Personally, I value the experience more in Russell but its sooo exciting to think of what Justin can be its really hard to convince myself that switching back to Russell after missing so much practice time will be better for the team when Justin did better than i anticipated last week.
JF has a body of work from Chicago that still gives me pause to endorse him as QB1. That being said, He did pretty well last week so let's keep it up and make us all believers!
I am feeling very good about Justin leading this team. As long as he can limit turnovers like he did in Atlanta, his ability to extend plays and convert third downs in less than conventional ways give defenses a lot more to prepare for and that can only lead to more opportunities to everyone.
My thoughts it looks like Russ has been hurt since before he came here. I dont ever remember a QB hitting a blocking sled since before Chuck Nolls time. That might be why play was so bad in Denver.
Out of all Steelers football channels, this has to be the best one by far. I believe this guy speaks football without all the bias that u got from other channels. This guy speaks football and keeps it positive which is amazing. No negative nitpicking, no hate or over praising for Fields or Russ to start. He literally just talks football and keeps it positive.
I am a Justin Fields believer. I watched him as a Bears fan and am now coming in a new Steeler fan. I am so excited that he is with competent coaches. The 2nd half adjustments under Getsy was run for a loss, run for a loss, Justin save us…
I absolutely am saying this publicly! I think Justin has the tools to be one of the BEST QBs in the League. I especially love how he carries himself, he seem like a good cool, humbled well centered dude! In terms of the Steelers & rookies QBs, John Elway took one look across the line from him, saw Jack Lambert growling & slobbering and wanted to get a job in Accounting
This feels different! Remember last year when we won … all of us felt like we still lost? I gotta say DK Justin Fields was coming to his own in the latter part of the season last year.
DK your old pal from the Bahamas here...I gotta say, I am loving the double shot. Amazing how you never know how much you something until you get it. Thanks!! P,S. Hopefully we don't get addicted and start asking for a 3rd shot...lol
I’m double dipping on comments here. My first comment was my typical Steelers fan nonsense. This is a comment on the show itself. I really like this show. I like the presentation, pacing, everything. It’s a welcome addition to my afternoon. Thanks.
I believe that Justin Fields can make some improvements, over his first game, along with the rest of the offense. The Steelers defense almost always creates more chances for that to happen. Thanks DK and Chris. Here we go !
The lack of support for fields is because of his time in Chicago the narrative that he can’t read a defense and Russ being a future HOFmer and the fact that the offense didn’t score a touchdown sunday but fields is our best option for the future
He hasn't proven anything yet. It's just one game of managing the game. He has a lot to prove yet. I don't think he can hang with the elite. We shall see if he becomes the permanent number 1.
@@vinnilittle2002Bottom 5 was in relation to last year, hence the comment of still bottom 5. 1 game does not erase 3 years. I guarantee I have watched every play of Fields multiple times for 3 years now and know every stat off the top of my head.
DK, so far so good with the new OC but we need to get a TD early on or the pressure will get heavy throughout the game! The expresso/coffee machines in the show's intro are awesome sir! 😎 Well done
I've seen a little bit of a guy from Chicago. I do think he's improved, and I do think he's being coached better. But I'm not completely sold on him yet. I am definitely open to seeing much more of him
I believe in fields. He played really good aside from a few bad throws early on. Finished with a completion rating of over 70% and moved the ball down the fields while having the defense on edge. He’s not calling the plays , we played a conservative game and based on that fields executed the game plan perfectly for the most part
At 4:32 Fields still needs his Mason Rudolph Christmas game type performance to get the fans to buy in. The first 3 TD+ game will have the fanbase wanting a Fields statue built.
QB Fields has yet to show that his football IQ has improved in the 4 years he had been in the NFL. That is crucial. All he seems to bring to his game is Potential. So far, Fields is a taller version of Cordell Stewart.
Fields has a high ceiling and some amazing traits all that said he has waaaay to many inconsistencys. I'm far from on board I remember the gap between Terry and Ben
Here’s what scares me about Fields. Can he bring us back if we’re down 17 points? My next J1Q, does Omar Khan and Mike Tomlin view Russell Wilson as an insurance policy or is he more so trade/draft capital ? Thanks for double shot DK. What are your thoughts on adding a segment like play of the game or call of the game that segment can be geared around what was the turning point of the football game. Just trying to help provide some content not like you need my help anyway lol
For me its simple. I love Justin, bears fans here and warched his whole career so far. He wasnt given anything in Chicago, and my team decided to put a rookie thru a rebuild. Everyone complaining about his stats, a few things. 1. Yall won, with a short noyice QB switch 2. He did what was asked of him, and what they wanted, thats on Arthur Smith 3. Brock Purdy/49ers won the game with 6 FGs and 0 tds. He gets praised for that. Fields narratives were built by Chicago, this is a freah start for the kid, let all that stuff be left behind with my team
I will not be confident in Justin for awhile for sure. I saw to much of him in chicago to think that he has changed this fast. But I am at least one step closer. Thanks again more great stuff
From the moment we got fields I was hoping he would be the guy. His youth and potential to be a long term option makes him so much more viable as a starter. And sure, I was in the “ok let Russ start the first few games and then throw fields in camp” but Russ got hurt and thus far fields is doing what we need. If he wins this week and plays well, it’s a done deal for me
The Steelers are undeniably much better off if Justin Fields plays well and becomes their QB of the now and foreseeable future, but it's still incumbent on him to perform. It's his fourth year in the league, the last in his rookie cap-friendly contract and the Steelers didn't spend a top draft pick to bring him here. I don't see them taking lumps or losses waiting for him to grow into the role. Week 1, I thought he did a fine job, but if he falters, it's going to be an easy call to turn this back over to Russell Wilson when he's healthy.
I’ve been a fields fan since Ohio state and in Chicago even tho I’m a die hard Steelers fan, I’m excited for the Steelers future with him as our franchise QB and I really like Arthur Smith as OC too that was a great pick up, kudos to Mike T on that pick, I believe we can win atleast 11 games this season and some because even tho they say our schedule is the hardest towards the end of the season it’s really not to me because we always do good playing in our division with our record, we never come in last and at worse we split wins in the division and that’s what 3-3 at worse which I don’t believe is going to happen so the only teams we have to worry about is the eagles and chiefs in the back end to me, anyways thanks for taking your time to read this and enjoy everyone #GOSTEELERS
10/1/2023 - CHI vs DEN: JF starts with 16 straight completions. Throws for 335 yards and 4TD's. A glimpse of what he is capable of. If he can continue to protect the ball and show progress, maybe OC taps more into that aspect of his game.
Franchise Qbs don’t get traded for a 6th round pick or make vet minimum. Fields has 31 starts with 1 td pass or less and has 1 300 game in his career. That came last season against Denver
Hi DK, I think the reason behind it is because we didn't draft Justin and he is not a rookie any more. I trust Russell a bit more because he is been there and done that. Justin is still growing and you are right, he is the future. Personally I want to see what Russell can do. Cheers!
To be honest. We, as a fan base as well as Russ, can get caught up in that so-called revenge game storyline, but in all honesty, I think that adds to the Justin push. He's got different fish to fry as well as the most reps under his belt with the first team.... So, in Justin, I feel we should trust.
It should have been Fields from the beginning… this has been the SAME DYNAMIC as Trubisky vs. Rudolph… Rudolph was always superior and Fields is better than Wilson… Wilson can still be a veteran BACKUP for when Fields can’t play… but he should have never been anointed STARTER just because he’s Russel Wilson… I am getting sick of Tomlin doing this shit in particular
We'll see about Fields. It'll be interesting to see if he can progress. These types of qb's haven't won anything. Kordell Stewart, Randall Cunningham, Michael Vick, Lamarr Jackson, all great athletes, take off and run, they all won nothing. We'll see how the season goes.
It will be the same game as last week. Run, run, run, and kick a FG. If you really wanna see if Fields can do it, the Broncos will have to be ahead by 10 in the 4th quarter.
Justin Fields is a 4-year vet, not a rookie. It's terrible way to start the video, in those 4 years Fields has done absolutely nothing consistently less than Daniel Jones even. Also ppl need to stop with the Lamar Jackson comparisons Lamar proved his talent within a single off season with less receiving talent.
If you can get a 14-10 record with Kenny Pickett over the last 2 years with how limited the offense was and how limited Pickett was talent-wise.......then you can win with Fields. It's just a matter of how high the ceiling can be with Fields and how creative Arthur Smith can be. Russ could probably come in an win games but the ceiling is probably not as high.
Go fields for year or two then draft manning if he dint work out! Risk is life and football you got have risk to make it all the way and he's electric to watch right now compared to since Ben retired
Let me get this straight: Justin Fields leads the team to ZERO TD's through 4 full quarters of play against the.....drum roll..... Atlanta Falcons defense and he's the man. He's the answer. Talk about grasping at the thinnest of all positive signs! How many more games do you expect them to win with that kind of offensive performance? He has proven nothing.
It's going to take halfway thru the season. 40 plus turnovers is hard to swallow. Every fumble from Center has been with Fields at QB he's got to prove that he's not going to be fumbling the ball or throw bad pics.
I am quite excited (maybe more hopeful than excited) with the prospect that Fields could be our future, BUT...does DK just have no memory of doing this just with Pickett and chugging the Kool aid way before it should have even been served? He did this exact thing with KP and it turned into a train wreck. Look, Fields has played well for ONE game - let's wait until he's played well for half a season before declaring that this is his team and he has the keys to the city, etc etc etc. Like one game and it wasn't even great just solid - chillll.
I hope it is fields that 51 yard throw on the run to pickens there is only a couple qb's in the whole league can do.fields lost between 100-130 yards passing and a td let's go!
Little premature after one game isn’t it? I am optimistic but this doesn’t make sense. What if he goes out Sunday and commits a couple turnovers? Still his team? He didn’t lose us the game but he also didn’t score a TD. It’s not like we’re coming off a Mahomes-esque performance.
“Just take the field and come out with a w”. Pickett did that more times than not, and that was never good enough….,but somehow it is with Fields?🤔. Wilson had a better year last year than JF has ever had. He’s a bad qb, he is not “the future”.
I get what you're saying, but....simply put Justin is a reclamation project... He's damaged goods...I hope he blossoms and I think he will, but that's why no one gives him the same benefit of the doubt that we would've given.... Well.... Kenny Pickett
@@DKPS_Steelers He's right. The Bears gave up on him instead of using that 1st rd pick to build around him. 30 other teams passed on giving them a something greater than the Steelers 6th rd pick. The Steelers, including the aging defensive stars that literally recruited him, are obviously hoping that Wilson leads them to a championship game. All they want from Fields is for him to show them enough to consider signing him at a discount next offseason.
J1Q: any chance Steelers trade for… Dionte Johnson? Panthers season could be over by the end of this weekend 😂 maybe they wanna get another pick for next years draft.
No it isn't Justin Fields team now. Justin is on a one year contract and after one game (6 FG.s and no TDs) he has not proven he deserves it to be his team yet. Mason Rudolph provided more evidence in performance that it could have been his team more than Justin Fields. I remember it being said that was Kenny Pickett's team. 24 starts later he is gone.
@@bbacc929 Because the Titans have a RD 1 QB that they think is their future. If their QB shows zero improvement, like Pickett, then Mason will probably get some starts. Fields had that shot but was replaced by a college QB and traded away for a bag of footballs. We have no chance for a comeback if this team falls behind 13 or more points when Fields is starting.
I'm not sold on him until I see him hang with Lamar Jackson or Joe Burrow or Josh Allen and beat these guys, you get the picture. Until then, I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I don't care what anyone says.
The title of this episode chilled me to the bone. In March, I was stridently opposed to bringing in either of these QBs and nothing has happened to change my feelings. I hope that I turn out to be wrong because I've been a Steelers fan since '69, but my confidence is very low that Wilson or Fields leads this team to an AFC Title game before TJ Watt and others on defense retire.
Fields continues to demonstrate an inability to process information sufficiently fast to consistently excel at QB in the NFL. Compounding that deficiency is inconsistent mechanics: footwork being chief among them. Winning against the Chiefs, Bills, et al will be nigh impossible with Fields
So, since I brought it up in the intro, how confident do YOU feel about Justin Fields in Denver? And be real with me here! -
I feel about as confident in Justin as I do in Russell. I feel they are pretty similar in terms of playstyle just where Justin doesn't have the experience compared to Russell he makes up for it in athleticism. Personally, I value the experience more in Russell but its sooo exciting to think of what Justin can be its really hard to convince myself that switching back to Russell after missing so much practice time will be better for the team when Justin did better than i anticipated last week.
Extremely confident! I think it's because of Arthur Smith more than Fields, even though I love Justin's talent. Very exciting times!
JF has a body of work from Chicago that still gives me pause to endorse him as QB1. That being said, He did pretty well last week so let's keep it up and make us all believers!

Fields is still a bottom 5 QB. Passing for 156 yards and zero TDs changes little.

Its gonna take 2 more good games one big game from fields....that will sway skeptical yinzers
Not sold on Fields yet. He still needs a slot of work.
I think it may be because Wilson is a good politician

I get what you're saying, but....simply put Justin is a reclamation project... He's damaged goods...I hope he blossoms and I think he will, but that's why no one gives him the same benefit of the doubt that we would've given.... Well.... Kenny Pickett
At age 25? JFC -
@@DKPS_Steelers I hear you, I completely agree with you... But that's how people are viewing him
@@DKPS_Steelers He's right. The Bears gave up on him instead of using that 1st rd pick to build around him. 30 other teams passed on giving them a something greater than the Steelers 6th rd pick. The Steelers, including the aging defensive stars that literally recruited him, are obviously hoping that Wilson leads them to a championship game. All they want from Fields is for him to show them enough to consider signing him at a discount next offseason.
If he doesn’t get in the end zone. Russ will be out there.
J1Q: any chance Steelers trade for… Dionte Johnson? Panthers season could be over by the end of this weekend 😂 maybe they wanna get another pick for next years draft.
No it isn't Justin Fields team now. Justin is on a one year contract and after one game (6 FG.s and no TDs) he has not proven he deserves it to be his team yet. Mason Rudolph provided more evidence in performance that it could have been his team more than Justin Fields. I remember it being said that was Kenny Pickett's team. 24 starts later he is gone.
Bs. Mason Rudolph was mid for years before FINALLY having 4 good games.
Justin Fields played one regular season game in a Steelers uniform, how many did Mason play? Oh, and why is Mason not starting in Tennessee?
@@bbacc929 Because the Titans have a RD 1 QB that they think is their future. If their QB shows zero improvement, like Pickett, then Mason will probably get some starts. Fields had that shot but was replaced by a college QB and traded away for a bag of footballs. We have no chance for a comeback if this team falls behind 13 or more points when Fields is starting.
I will continue to have the stance I want to see Russ start a game for us
I'm not sold on him until I see him hang with Lamar Jackson or Joe Burrow or Josh Allen and beat these guys, you get the picture. Until then, I will give him the benefit of the doubt. I don't care what anyone says.
Because mason rodalf was better
The title of this episode chilled me to the bone. In March, I was stridently opposed to bringing in either of these QBs and nothing has happened to change my feelings. I hope that I turn out to be wrong because I've been a Steelers fan since '69, but my confidence is very low that Wilson or Fields leads this team to an AFC Title game before TJ Watt and others on defense retire.
My boy DK got the official commercials now wtf lmao
Which one? -
Fields continues to demonstrate an inability to process information sufficiently fast to consistently excel at QB in the NFL. Compounding that deficiency is inconsistent mechanics: footwork being chief among them. Winning against the Chiefs, Bills, et al will be nigh impossible with Fields
