A new era is officially beginning for the Chicago Bears this Sunday when rookie Justin Fields makes the first start of his NFL career. Naturally, all eyes are on No. 1 after head coach Matt Nagy made the decision to play the 2021 first-round pick following an injury to Andy Dalton, but there’s other things to watch for an note in this week’s matchup against the Browns.
If you’re keeping track at home (and if so, God bless you), we had a good week last Sunday against the Bengals, as 2.5/5 bold predictions came to fruition after Jaylon Johnson got his first interception and the Bears registered more than three sacks. I’m giving myself the half point for Fields’ touchdown because we all know Allen Robinson should have come down with the ball. Partial credit, right?
Anyway, here are my bold predictions for this week’s game against the Browns.
