LAKE FOREST, Ill. – The Chicago Bears were facing third-and-10 at the 50-yard line with 10:07 left in the third quarter Sunday when the ball was snapped a tick early to quarterback Justin Fields. With the timing off, Denver Broncos pass-rushers got the jump on offensive linemen and were coming in unblocked.
Unfazed, Fields hit wide receiver DJ Moore for an 11-yard completion, extending a 15-play, 66-yard drive that took 9:26 off the clock and culminated in a touchdown and 28-7 lead.
“We just call those no-flinch throws,” Fields said.
