Bears Eyeing Major Staff Changes?

While the Matt Nagy–Ryan Pace regime showed early issues, the Bears did not produce a losing season until the fourth and final year of that partnership. Although circumstances are a bit different for Matt Eberflus and Ryan Poles, the team is in a worse spot than it was during the previous duo’s run. The Bears […]

Justin Fields Gathers Just 146 Total Yards

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields couldn't muster up much at all as the Chiefs defense put up a dominant performance. The third-year signal caller threw for just 99 yards with one touchdown and one interception while gathering 47 yards on 11 carries. He completed just 11 of his 22 attempts and if it wasn't for the lone score, he would have produced a single-digit fantasy outing. Fields has had a rough go of it early on this season, so the Week 4 matchup against the Broncos becomes even more important for this offense to get back on track and regain hope.

Justin Fields Has Daunting Week 3 Matchup

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will have a tough matchup Week 3 against the Chiefs. Everything that can go wrong has gone wrong for Fields and the Bears offense through two games. Blockers are missing assignments, receivers are running the wrong routes and the third-year quarterback looks dismally lost in the pocket right now. Fields will now face the defending Super Bowl Champion Chiefs and a defense that has allowed only one passing touchdown through the first two weeks of play. Fields could pad his fantasy line in the second half if the game-score gets out of reach but otherwise will be a risky QB1 play until his production evens out.

Justin Fields Blames Coaching For Struggles?

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields came into the 2023 season as a breakout candidate, but his career passing struggles have continued through his first two games. The third-year signal-caller has completed just 40 passes for 427 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions in losses to the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Fields said he thinks he is playing too robotic and thinking too much. When asked what is causing him to think too much, he frankly said, "Coaching." This is not what you want to hear from a franchise quarterback, so things could be heading south quickly for Chicago and its offensive pieces. He continues to be a must-start quarterback in fantasy football thanks to his rushing upside, but that could change if he continues to fall flat.

Justin Fields Struggles Again In Week 2 Loss

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields completed 16-of-29 passes for 211 yards, one touchdown and two costly interceptions in the team's 27-17 loss to the Buccaneers in Week 2. Fields was off his game once again this season and picked up only 3 rushing yards on a paltry four carries. The Bears offense is in complete disarray and Fields' mechanics are all over the place. He is failing to pull the trigger on his second and third reads and is taking needless sacks. Fields connected with receiver Chase Claypool for a touchdown to pull within striking distance, but a pick-six on the next drive sealed the Bears fate. Fields and Co. will have the unenvious position of traveling to Kansas City to play the defending champion Chiefs in Week 3.

Justin Fields - Week 2 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will look to put a porous start to his season in the rearview mirror in Week 2 against Tampa Bay. Fields struggled mightily in Week 1 against Green Bay as he failed to take any shots down the field and was hounded by the Packers defensive line throughout the game. The third-year passer will face a Buccaneers defense that allowed 344 passing yards to the Vikings in Week 1. Fields is worth a start in 12-team formats but fantasy managers certainly have plenty of reasons to be nervous heading into Week 2.

Justin Fields Thinks He Played Too Conservatively

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields said, "I feel like I was a little too conservative at times" in the Week 1 loss to the division-rival Green Bay Packers last Sunday. Fields went 24-for-37 for 216 yards, one touchdown and one interception while rushing the ball nine times for 59 yards in a blowout loss. The Bears didn't challenge the Packers defense down the field either. It wasn't the start that Fields' fantasy managers wanted to see, but there is plenty of time for him to turn things around, starting with a Week 2 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Those that were expecting the 24-year-old signal-caller to become a high-end QB1 immediately in 2023 might need to be a bit more patient. Still, he should be considered a top-10 QB 1 play this weekend.

Justin Fields Opens Season Against Rival Packers

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will begin his make-or-break season Week 1 against the Packers. Fields dazzled last season with his legs, racking up 1,143 rushing yards for eight rushing scores and 17 passing touchdowns. Those gaudy numbers were good enough to make Fields a league-winner in the second half of last year's fantasy season. But can he take the next step with his arm? He will face a Packers secondary in Week 1 that disappointed in the back-half of last season. Fields should carry surefire top-10 QB value in fantasy but will carry some boom-or-bust potential.

Latest On Bears' Backup QB Situation

The Bears only had two quarterbacks on their initial 53-man roster after deciding to release both P.J. Walker and Nathan Peterman. The decision to cut the latter proved to be a paper transaction, though, and he is again on the active roster. As a result, questions have been raised about how the backup spot will shake out behind Justin […]

Justin Fields Might Keep Running In 2023

The Chicago Bears are expected to keep finding creative ways to use quarterback Justin Fields' running ability as an asset that keeps drives alive and occasionally leads to a big scoring play. When asked if the team wanted Fields to run less this year to avoid putting himself in harm's way, a Bears official said, "Well, we want him to get hit less." Fields was indecisive on a lot of his 55 sacks in 2022, which is something that should improve in 2023. The 24-year-old isn't just a good runner, he's a historically special runner at the position, picking up 1,143 yards rushing last year. It's part of the reason why he's a popular breakout candidate with high-end QB1 upside if he improves at all in the passing game in his third NFL season. The acquisition of receiver DJ Moore should help Fields evolve as a passer.

Justin Fields Passes For 51 Yards In Preseason Finale

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields completed 2-of-6 passes for 51 yards and 16 rushing yards in the Bears preseason finale against the Bills. Fields' numbers were pumped up by a fantastic catch-and-run for 40 yards by wide receiver D.J. Moore. The Bears have been sparse with how they expose the third-year quarterback to preseason action and injuries to the offensive line have furthered that cautious perspective. Nonetheless, Fields will enter Week 1 against the Packers as a surefire top-10 fantasy option among quarterbacks.

Bears Conducting Backup Quarterback Competition?

The top spot on the Bears’ quarterback depth chart, as confirmed by their handling of the 2023 offseason, belongs to Justin Fields. Despite the identity of his backup appearing clear before training camp and the preseason began, that may not be the case. Chicago inked P.J. Walker to a two-year deal including $2MM guaranteed in free agency. […]

Justin Fields Won't Play On Saturday

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields won't suit up for the team's second preseason game on Saturday. Head coach Matt Eberflus said Fields will sit out and select starters will join him on the sideline. It appears the Bears are going to take the cautious approach here and not risk the health of their starters in an exhibition game. The assumption is that P.J. Walker or Nathan Peterman will get the start on Saturday. Possibly, the two of them split the reps as they battle for the backup spot behind Fields.

Offseason In Review: Chicago Bears

Coming into this offseason with the most cap space, the Bears used it in different ways. In addition to outbidding competitors for Tremaine Edmunds, Chicago filled other needs at guard and defensive end. GM Ryan Poles‘ second draft also is set to include multiple Week 1 starters, but this offseason — and more after that […]

Justin Fields Throws Two Touchdowns In Preseason Opener

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields looked impressive in his first game action in 2023 in the team's 23-17 win over the visiting Tennessee Titans in the preseason opener on Saturday. Fields only attempted three passes, but he completed all three of them for 129 yards and two touchdowns. Fields' touchdowns came on a 62-yard completion to new wideout DJ Moore on a screen pass and a checkdown to running back Khalil Herbert that went for a 56-yard score. It's just a small sample, but the 24-year-old could be one of the most explosive fantasy QBs in 2023 if he improves through the air this year. Draft him as a midrange QB1 with potential to finish as an elite fantasy signal-caller.

Justin Fields Will Play In Preseason Opener

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans, according to head coach Matt Eberflus. Fields is looking to take the next step as a passer in 2023 after becoming just the third quarterback in NFL history to rush for over 1,000 yards in a single season last year. All of a sudden, Fields has solid weapons to work with in DJ Moore, Darnell Mooney, Chase Claypool, Velus Jones Jr., Tyler Scott, Cole Kmet, and Robert Tonyan. Eberflus said some other starters will participate in Saturday's game, so Fields' progression as a passer will be worth monitoring. That said, it's important not to overreact to preseason performances.

The Bears have made a number of changes to their receiving corps this offseason, but returnee Darnell Mooney is set to once again be a central figure in the team’s passing attack.
