Outside of the two interceptions, Fields played a very strong game, especially when you consider the fact he had missed time with an injury.

That was without a doubt one of the best games he played all season. There have been some serious growing pains, but there’s no question he’s clearly improving.
Yes, the pick six was brutal, but it happens. It’s just part of the game.

As long as the Bears don’t find a way to destroy Fields’ development, the future is bright in Chicago, and the dual-threat QB’s play Sunday night is proof of that fact.
