Assuming Fields is back next week, he will have to face some pretty good defenses. First number is team defense by total yards given up and the second number is team defense by passing yards given up.
Detroit #9/#20 Minnesota #13/#16 Detroit #9/#20 Cleveland #1/#1 Atlanta #8/#10 Arizona #22/#11 Green Bay #11/#7
Detroit will be a tough match up because they have pass rushers, good run D, and will be playing with the lead most likely.
Minnesota's aggressive blitzing gave Fields trouble.
Cleveland is the toughest defense the Bears will play all year.
Atlanta and Green Bay have top 10 pass defense and Arizona is #11 in pass defense.
Fields best chance to put up a good performance will be next week against Detroit but we still don't know how healed his thumb is yet. After the 2 Detroit games it's a rough 4 games to close out the season.
Looks like the excuses is ready when he throws for 50 yards in the first half again
Mysteriously the offensive line will suddenly play like trash, and it'll be obvious no QB in the world could possibly complete a pass behind them. Omg!!! Why didn't Poles address the line????
The oline hasn't been healthy in any of Fields starts this year. Hell, Whitehair sucked so bad against MN, he was benched as soon as Bagent came in. He should have been benched much earlier. I can't predict how Fields will play with the oline cooking, but I certainly like his chances to do well with Jones, Jenkins, Patrick, Davis and Wright compared to the shit he had to deal with.
This is such an excuse, smh.
Reality is an excuse?
