On this scale, anything under a 60 is a failed grade. 60-69.9 isn't starter level, 70-79 is starter level, 80-89 is above average starter, and 90+ is superstar. Those grades average to a 59.96.
For the season, his passing grade is a 54.4, which is bottom three for players with at least three starts. He's down there with Wilson and Heinicke. QBs with better passing grades include Carson Wentz, Marcus Mariota, Davis Mills, Matt Ryan, and Baker Mayfield. All of them have been either demoted or fired by a team.
The reverse is actually true. Chicago has an excellent playcaller who will be a head coach soon. The quarterback is holding back the offense despite the quality playcalling, not the opposite.
Fields is a dynamic, arguably even generational open-field runner who can't play QB at an NFL level.
