know that our quarterback Russell Wilson still has one of the most accurate arms in the NFL that's right according to Warren sharp from sharp football last year when he was still with the Broncos he had the fifth lowest rate of incompletions due to inaccuracies this information was originally posted on Steelers Now by Chris Ward let's compare with other QBs Deshawn Watson topped the list of inaccurate passes with almost 44% our own Kenny picket was at 35% and Justin Fields he was around 20th Place with 31% but check this out Fields had some issues during the preseason ray fit aalo from the Pittsburgh Post Gazette mentioned that he was inconsistent in OTAs and mini camp practices from what I saw Fields had a month of spring training and while he's an incredible athlete the criticisms about him proved to be true he's not very accurate with the ball his pass placement isn't the best and I see this team as Russell Wilson's team Nick faraba also from Steelers now pointed out that this inconsistency from Fields was most apparent in the intermediate range on short and long throws he was okay but in the middle of the field especially outside the numbers he was all over the place
