Bears’ worst 10 defensive players in Week 9, per PFF

Bears Week 9 KAMIL KRZACZYNSKI Justin Fields Mike Dinovo

But quarterback Justin Fields had a record-setting performance, where he rushed for 178 yards, the most ever by a quarterback in the regular season. While the defense again struggled, Fields is developing into a star before our eyes, and the offense is night-and-day from where it was in Week 6.
