The Chicago Bears are off to a bad start, losing their first two games of the season. They lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 2, 17-27, and the flak is expected to pour in anew.
The Bears already drew much criticism when they lost to the Green Bay Packers in Week 1, 20-38. That is likely to amplify following their latest loss to the Bucs.
One player who finds himself in the middle of the struggles is Justin Fields.

Against Tampa Bay, most knew that the 24-year-old's legs were his best weapon. Unfortunately, the Buccaneers would not allow him to get going, effectively shutting him down.
He took six sacks and threw two interceptions in the fourth quarter. Coming off an NFL season where he was sacked 55 times, the Georgia native is well on his way to equalizing that or even more. But this is if he can last 17 games with the Bears, NBC Sports noted.
All Fields can do for now is try to figure out what he can do to get the Bears on track. They are now 0-2, and the 24-year-old admitted they are currently in a rough patch via CHGO.

"We're going through a storm right now," Fields rued.
Fields aware of huge expectations
There were big expectations on Fields, most expecting him to be a better passer this 2023-24 NFL season. So far, nothing has come close to that happening.
"My job and the coach's job is to keep everybody going, keep everybody's morale up. It's a long season," Fields said via the Associated Press.
Things will not get any easier for Fields and the Bears. They will next face the Kansas City Chiefs.
