I don’t know that Justin Fields playing his best two games leading into the bye week was good for the Chicago Bears fan psyche. All we heard for two weeks was how good he was looking, how he was on track to be a star, and the naive parts of our hearts were left with the impression that it would be smooth sailing from here.
Somehow, I didn’t anticipate watching a backup quarterback run laps around Fields in terms of completion percentage before Fields getting injured on a fruitless Third and 11 run. I should have known better.
