EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — There was a time recently when the Bears believed, perhaps correctly, they had everything but the quarterback. They think they’ve found one in Justin Fields, but now they don’t have much else.

With Fields out Sunday because of a separated shoulder, the Jets laid bare the mountain of work ahead of the Bears in addition to developing Fields. It was an unwanted trip back in time to the Matt Nagy era as the Bears lost 31-10 to a middling opponent.
