Justin Fields stats and highlights have turned on a dime after a slow start to the season. Fields now leads all QBs in rushing yards with 606 yards on the season, passing Lamar Jackson who plays for the Ravens tonight. While the passing yards remain low, the efficiency has been terrific since Week 5. Fields has a 99.7 QB rating over the past 5 weeks with 11 total touchdowns against just 2 turnovers. Bears WR Darnell Mooney and TE Cole Kmet are starting to become the weapons the Bears hoped they would be coming into the season and with new WR Chase Claypool on board, hopefully he’ll become more of a factor moving forward as well.
