Week 15 ended just as the previous six have for the Chicago Bears (3-11). That is minus Week 14 when they had their bye, of course. They lost yet again. This time to a Philadelphia Eagles team that boasts the best record in the NFL on top of being the top-scoring offense in the league. The Bears, meanwhile, find themselves on the other end of the spectrum at 3-11 and rank 19th in scoring.<\/p>\n
But the vibe in the locker room wouldn\u2019t suggest a team that has seemingly become averse to victories after starting the season 2-1.<\/p>\n
They are a team that has hope, thanks in large part to the man under center in Justin Fields<\/a>.<\/p>\n After the game, he spoke about wanting to come back late. His team was down two scores despite suffering an apparent injury that sent him to the locker room for a key possession.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was important,\u201d Fields said of returning to the game following what turned out to be cramps but still had the second-year passer limping to the sideline before going down to the ground. \u201cEvery time I get a chance to play, I\u2019m going to want to be out there with my guys. I know they fight and, like I said before, they\u2019re the only reason I play.\u201d<\/p>\n Fields\u2019 leadership has been a constant light at the end of the tunnel. Especially for the moribund Bears team even as they were at their lowest this year.<\/p>\n It was a postgame answer from Fields<\/a> after a Week 6 loss that sparked an offensive turnaround.<\/p>\n And it is Fields who will determine just how well this Bears\u2019 rebuild will turn out granted the front office does for him what Philadelphia Eagles general manager did for Jalen Hurts<\/a> who was highly complimentary of Fields ahead of Sunday\u2019s showdown.<\/p>\n MVP Frontrunner Sends Strong Message on Bears’ Justin Fields<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nJustin Fields Gets Honest About Chicago Bears Teammates<\/h2>\n
