Passing yards and touchdowns are down across the NFL to start this season, at least partly because of the increased use of Cover 2 defenses across the league.

There is one quarterback who may not be racking up a lot of passing yards or touchdowns so far this year, but he has impressed Joy Taylor.

Taylor said on Fox Sports 1’s “Speak” that she is “very, very very impressed” with Justin Fields of the Pittsburgh Steelers, especially with his consistency.

Through three games, Fields has thrown for 518 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while completing 73.3 percent of his pass attempts for the 3-0 Steelers.

The Steelers acquired him during the offseason along with future Hall of Fame QB Russell Wilson, which quickly set up a potential quarterback controversy.

While Wilson was eventually named the starter by head coach Mike Tomlin, many felt that Fields would eventually supplant him.

Fields has been starting under center for the first three games of the new season because Wilson has been dealing with a calf injury since the start of training camp.

In his first three seasons with the Chicago Bears, he occasionally showed glimpses of potential, but for every good performance he had, he seemed to have a few lackluster or even bad games.

In Pittsburgh, he’s playing in an offense that loves to run the football, and a strong offensive line has given him the opportunity to play some of the best football he has ever put forth.

The team has a great opportunity to improve to 4-0 when it visits the 1-2 Indianapolis Colts this coming Sunday.
