Bears QB Justin Fields’ pick-6 vs. Packers rife with red flags

Ashlee Rezin/Sun-Times

Fields completed 24 of 37 passes for 216 yards with a touchdown and an interception for a 78.2 passer rating.

Turnovers come with the territory for some prolific quarterbacks, and they’re somewhat tolerable because they’re going to fill up the stat sheet with yards and touchdowns regardless. Gunslinging and fearlessness have their upside.

Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert all threw 25-plus interceptions over the last two seasons, but they also were at least double that — triple, in Mahomes’ case — in touchdown passes and regularly cooked up 300-yard games.
