Bears’ Loss Against Lions Highlights Need for Quarterbacks to Play Situational Football

Quarterback Justin Fields’ “touchdown-to-checkdown” mindset, instilled by former coach Matt Nagy, may have cost the Chicago Bears in their 31-26 loss. Despite the defense’s struggles, Fields opted for a deep pass to Tyler Scott instead of a potential big-play checkdown to DJ Moore, raising questions about his in-game decisions. Fields missed a prime opportunity to secure a win as he overlooked Moore, who excels in yards after the catch. This moment reflects Fields’ ongoing development, emphasizing the need for situational awareness over deep-ball tendencies. #NFL #Bears #JustinFields #FootballDecisionMaking #ChicagoBearsLoss #QuarterbackGrowth
