After two frustrating losses, Chicago Bears QB Justin Fields sounded off Wednesday on why he has felt himself playing so 'robotic.'
Bears quarterback Justin Fields looks before making a pass during the third quarter against the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium on Sept. 17, 2023.
The Bears faced third-and-13 from the Buccaneers 27 — in part because of a sack Fields took two snaps earlier when he declined to pull the trigger for a potential big-play pass to Roschon Johnson up the seam. Then, on the subsequent third down, as Fields sat in the pocket scanning for open receivers, he hesitated, then froze. Totally locked up.
“On that play specifically, I was in the pocket for a long time,” Fields added. “I’ve got to extend the play and get out of the pocket. Extend the play and do something with it. Make something shake.”Then chew on this Week 3 vow Fields made as he prepares to lead the Bears against reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium. As 13-point underdogs.
