Where is everyone getting the impression that Mark Fields had his best years with Carolina? His career stats beg to differ.

From watching him play, and not simply going off NFL.com. He was okay with us, but that first year in Carolina, he was a beast for them. Too bad his career was cut short by disease, cause he was gonna make a serious mark for them. We mis-used him from day one.

Average at best when he was a Saint... got much better with better players surrounding him in Carolina.

Fields did not do that great with the Saints. He was very okay while playing with the Saints. Maybe the Saints staff did misuse him, but still in all he was not great.

I agree that MLB is a major concern at this time. The outside spots should be pretty good. With DT's that are below average, the MLB is going to be exposed in a big way. Hopefully someone will step up, or get used to seeing plenty of 8 yard runs up the middle against our D.

This LB corps looks way better than it has in recent years...Watson's but is gone so that frees up a spot for someone to actually move in and do the job
