[Rapoport] Sources: #Bears QB Justin Fields, out the last month with a dislocated thumb, is expected to start Sunday vs the #Lions, assuming today’s practice goes well. The key has been regaining grip strength, and Fields was nearly there before TNF. With a solid practice, he will be.

  3. Cant wait for the “i guess the offensive line decided to just stop playing all of a sudden” excuses…..

  4. Now let’s hope he plays really well the next 7 weeks and can stay healthy so there is no doubt at the end of the year what direction we need to go

  5. The O Line is FINALLY healthy and we are trotting this guy out there…..FML. Bagent took 5 sacks is 4 games….anyone want to take bets on Fields taking at least 5 sacks in this game????

  6. I’m looking forward to it. I don’t know what it is, but I just couldn’t get excited for Bagent games, no matter how well he would’ve done. Just hope one of the million screens we run doesn’t result in another Aidan Hutchinson int.

  7. Fields has never been shy. I really wonder if when he gets a chance to talk he’s going to say he was ready sooner. Really feels like the bears beat guys seemed to think he could’ve gone Thursday if not the week prior.

  8. Regardless of what side of the draft a QB/stay with Fields debate you are on I think we can all agree the current team is way more watchable this guy on the field. IMO Fields needs like 5 out of these last 7 to be good games to stay on this team next year minimum and that’s for there to even be consideration for him to stay. 4 or less and I think the guy is cooked.

  9. Awesome, hopefully with the O line being in a much better state than when he left he can make it click
