1. Justin Fields is primed to breakout for the Chicago Bears

We all know the real number one reason why the Chicago Bears can make a run this season. Everything they do in 2023 will come down to Justin Fields. Last season, he was doing everything he could to keep the team in these one-score games. Now, the front office gave him pieces to try to win these games.

Chase Claypool came in late last year, but now he is secondary news behind D.J. Moore. Darnell Wright and Nate Davis will help the offensive line, and the Bears also added some help at running back and tight end. Needless to say, every group is better in 2023 than Justin Fields saw in 2022.

Now, it is on him. Fans have compared him to Josh Allen and Jalen Hurts recently. Both players started things out slow, but when the pieces around them started to form, they took off. Justin Fields now has the same expectations. Both Allen and Hurts are known for not only getting to the playoffs, but both of them now have found success in the playoffs. Can we see the same out of Justin Fields?

There are no excuses this year, and the expectation may not be a playoff run, but it certainly will be competing to make that run, and staying in the mix until the end of the 2023 season.
