After Sunday's game, despite a loss, there should be no more doubt: Justin Fields is *the* guy for the Bears. DaBears
It’s official: the Chicago Bears have their quarterback of the future. Yes, the Bears just lost their third straight game this season and handed Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell his first road win in two years at the helm. But they got the best consolation prize of all in the ability to rest easy knowing that second-yearis all the team ever hoped he would be and perhaps is even exceeding their expectations.
The biggest irony about the Bears’ three-game losing streak is that it comes at the same time that Fields is amidst the best stretch of his career. Entering Week 8 of this season, the young quarterback had completed fewer than 60% of his 406 career pass attempts with just 12 touchdown passes to 16 interceptions. In the three weeks since, Fields has completed at least 60% of his passes in each game with seven touchdown passes and just one interception.
On Sunday against the Lions, Fields once again did something no NFL quarterback had done before: passing for 100+ yards, rushing for 100+ yards, scoring two rushing touchdowns,having two passing touchdowns in one regular-season game. On a team that is lacking a strong offensive line and has zero elite pass-catching weapons, Fields is still shining and thriving as the Bears’ sole offensive bright spot and somehow making it look easy.
Take, for example, his first touchdown against Detroit on Sunday afternoon. On a 3rd-and-goal play from the Lions’ 1-yard line, the Bears tried to run a play-action pass targeting receiver Darnell Mooney on a slide route to the flat. Tight coverage on Mooney and the other receivers on the field led to the play breaking down, forcing Fields to scramble and try to make something happen as defenders began to trickle through the offensive line.
