The Steelers have only scored one offensive touchdown through the first two weeks of the season, but they are 2-0 and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith said on Thursday that he's happy with what he's seen from quarterback Justin Fields.

Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith made quite the comparison about the former Chicago Bears quarterback.

PITTSBURGH -- Justin Fields has led the Pittsburgh Steelers to a 2-0 start in the early portion of their season. While the offense has put up just 18 and 13 points in their wins, and Fields himself has just 273 passing yards and one touchdown, that did not stop Smith from answering why he thought Fields was playing well.

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith praised how quarterback Justin Fields performed during Week 1.

Smith addressed the media on Thursday and he instructed Fields not to test the middle of the field because of Bates. Smith even referred to Bates as Atlanta’s “Jason Bourne” whatever that means.

And while the point total doesn’t pain the offense in a beautiful light, quarterback Justin Fields has played well. Fields is eighth in the NFL in completion percentage over expected (CPOE) and is top 15 in EPA+CPOE composite.
