One bold prediction for the Chicago Bears in 2021-22: Most dynamic offense in the league
There isn’t a single offensive category where the Chicago Bears shined last season. Whether they were attempting to throw the ball, rushing between tacklers or even when they needed a spark with their special teams, they simply couldn’t get it done.
Truth be told, that’s always been the case for the Bears. They’ve seldom had great quarterback play and the Mitchell Trubisky experiment was no different.
After watching him struggle for years on end, the team finally parted ways with him. In the meanwhile, they picked up some veteran help in Andy Dalton but they also have former Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles.
Nonetheless, none of those aforementioned names will bring the Bears any success this season. With that said, if newly drafted quarterback Justin Fields is able to grab hold of the starter’s position from the beginning, he’ll push them into the stratosphere.
During a truncated college football season, Fields threw for 2,100 yards, 22 touchdowns, six interceptions and completed 70.2% of his passes. Fields managed to carry Ohio State to an unlikely win over Clemson before falling in the National Championship game against Alabama.
With his ability to run and throw the ball, Fields will fit right in with this new modern-day quarterback crop. The Bears won’t be amongst the best offensively but they’ll be fun to watch and will certainly be dynamic every night with Fields under center.
