Fields will be the starter this season. For him to be successful, though, the team will have to fine-tune what the Bears and Steelers could not.

Thrust into the lineup as Russell Wilson recovered from a preseason calf injury, Fields helped the Steelers to a 4-2 start. He was efficient, if not prolific. He averaged only 184 passing yards per start, and had only five touchdown passes, but he threw just one interception and posted a career-high 65.8 completion rate.
