Colin Cowherd compares Justin Fields to Baker Mayfield, Johnny Manziel

Colin Cowherd has an axe to grind with Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields.

If you thought his comments suggesting Fields was a bad quarterback were bad, you’re going to love this.

In a recent episode of “The Herd,” Cowherd hinted that Fields has an ego problem. He invoked names like Baker Mayfield and Johnny Manziel when making his point, which was based on Fields saying he believes he’s already a top-5 rushing quarterback in NFL history.

Check out Cowherd’s full comments here:

“I’ve always been 60/40 that Justin Fields is going to succeed… I’m pulling back 5 percent. Lacks a little self awareness.”

Cowherd went as far as to say Justin Fields is a bust, citing his win-loss record as proof.

“Right now, he’s a YouTube quarterback,” Cowherd said.

Like most flip-flopping talking heads, Cowherd gave himself a golden parachute, saying he thinks there’s a 55% chance that Fields can become a good NFL quarterback.

It’s safe to say the Fox Sports’ talking head is Public Enemy No. 1 for Chicago Bears fans entering the 2023 season.
