Justin Fields runs for a touchdown on Nov. 13, 2022, against the Lions at Soldier Field.The thing to remember is that the Bears lost 14 games last season, the only time in their history they’ve lost that many.
It’s a cliché, but there’s nowhere for them to go but up.
The second thing to remember is that the Bears have bet that Justin Fields is the quarterback they need for now and the future.
It looks like a pretty good bet.
But is it?
There were things Fields did last season, his second, that we’ve never seen a Bears quarterback do. That we’ve never seen any quarterback do.
