At 3-8, the Chicago Bears’ 2022 season is all but certainly over when it comes to playoff contention. But there was a time when the Bears could’ve made it interesting before they lost four straight games (while putting up 148 points and losing three one-score games). Of course, if not for the recent meteoric ascent from Justin Fields, the Bears don’t even make that push.
But after a clearly hurt Fields couldn’t carry Chicago’s otherwise poor roster across the finish line in Sunday’s 27-24 defeat to the Atlanta Falcons, the QB wasn’t blaming any of his teammates. Not only did the second-year rising signal caller take full responsibility for the defeat (unlike one of his peers), he took it a step further.
