After Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields rushed for a record 178 yards in Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, local and national talking heads are forecasting great things in the player's future.
Bears tight end Cole Kmet said the next step is to finish close games with a win after the Bears failed to score on two late drives Sunday.Yes, officials missed a pass-interference call on a ball to Chase Claypool on third down of the final drive. But Getsy pointed to the fourth-down play, in which Equanimeous St. Brown dropped a nice pass from Fields, saying, “it’s about executing like anything else.
Fields pointed to room for growth in the passing game, which is averaging 125.7 yards per game, worst in the league. He said he is looking to improve his pocket presence, getting to the checkdown faster, getting the little completions when needed and not forcing the big play. “Just take what the defense gives you,” Fields said. “Play every play out. Situationally, what’s the down and distance? What do we need to accomplish on this play? Of course, if there is a big play there, then take it. We have certain plays where we want to call a shot, we are taking a shot downfield. There’s other plays where we just want to get a few yards or just get a completion.
