Now, it was more like Justin Fields Bears fans were hoping to see.
Last Sunday, against the 49ers, Fields looked like the dynamic two-threat Chicago quarterback drafted 11th overall this year. While always throwing an interception, he had 19 of 27 passes for 175 yards with one touchdown, and rushed for a career-high 103 yards on 10 carries with another touchdown.
He’ll face a tough challenge on “Monday Night Football,†however, as he faces the Steelers in prime time, a week after perhaps Pittsburgh’s biggest win of the season.

After a week off, Pittsburgh limited the Browns to just 10 points for a third straight win. The Steelers edged Cleveland 370-306 in total yards.
It was also the third week in a row for Ben Roethlisberger without an interception. Having pitched four in his first four games, he now has zero interceptions and four touchdowns in his last three games as he has shown signs of improving the game lately.
