There's so much holding going on these days.  As long as you don't wrap your arm around a defender your not going to get called for a penalty.

As for Fields, I see nothing different from last year.  No quick passes, little pocket presence, when he runs he rarely looks downfield to throw, and he just waits and waits in the pocket.  Same stuff we criticized Trubisky with.  And oh yeah, when he does have protection - accuracy and velocity is not consistent.

He'll get the year to figure it out unless Eberflus has seen enough and bails on him and goes to the backup.
