The Panthers had eight starting quarterbacks — none of them good — in D.J. Moore’s five years there, and he still managed to average 1,000 yards receiving per season. So even though the Bears are rebuilding and quarterback Justin Fields has a long way to go as a passer, Moore likes his chances of thriving here.
“To come to a better situation with a stable quarterback, the sky’s the limit from there,” he said when the Bears introduced him Thursday.
The move should be mutually beneficial. The Bears’ working theory on Fields is that he must improve individually, but he has been significantly hampered throughout his first two seasons.
