Justin Fields Facing Shaky Defense in Week 2
Justin Fields appears to have a favorable matchup in Week 2. The mobile Fields will face the Buffalo Bills, who were unable to contain the Baltimore Ravens' rushing attack on Sunday. While the Bills pulled off a stunning 41-40 win, quarterback Lamar Jackson rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown on six carries. He also completed 14 of 19 passes for 209 yards and two scores. To be sure, Fields isn't on the level of Jackson, a two-time MVP and a potential Hall of Famer. However, although Fields hasn't excelled as a passer in four full seasons in the NFL, he has been a major threat on the ground (5.9 yards per carry, 21 TDs on 430 attempts). He flashed his dual-threat abilities in a Week 1 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, carrying 12 times for 48 yards and a pair of TDs and completing 16 of 22 passes for 218 and another score. The Steelers have a better defense than the Bills on paper, which could bode well for Fields in Week 2. The 26-year-old is still available in 13% of Yahoo leagues and may be worth a look as a key component of a run-heavy offense.
