“Straight up, I just played — I don’t want to say the A-word, but I played like trash,” said quarterback Justin Fields to the media following the Chicago Bears 23-20 victory over the Houston Texans. “Really just got to be better.”
Fields is in this second year with the team and his first as the solidified starter. He was the 11th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, a pick that the Bears moved up nine spots to acquire. After three games this season, Fields is averaging a 47.1 completion percentage, with four interceptions and ten sacks against him.
There’s a lot to look at when it comes to Fields’ poor start, both from a personnel standpoint to all the way up in the front office. It’s truly the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to the truth about Fields.
