Justin Fields Apologizes to Bears Teammates, Fans After Loss to Jordan Love, Packers

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields is taking responsibility for the team's Week 1 loss.

The season opener was primed to be a chance to take a step in the right direction for the Bears. They were hosting the Green Bay Packers, their arch-rival, and it was the first game of the post-Aaron Rodgers era for Green Bay.

Unfortunately for Chicago, the Packers were still too much to handle. Green Bay won 38-20 and starting quarterback Jordan Love outplayed Fields in his first game as the official starter for the Packers. Fields acknowledged the missed opportunity and apologized to his teammates and the Chicago fans.
