3 disastrously bad news items coming from Chicago Bears media availability

1. Justin Fields has had enough of the Chicago Bears coaching

Justin Fields has played poorly the first two weeks. Anyone can see that he is playing robotic. However, to hear him say it was something. It is good that he is this self-aware, but the rest of his answer brings a lot of question marks.

Justin Fields went onto explain that he feels he is trying to take coaching too hard, and he is thinking too much and not playing. This sounds like an indictment of the coaching staff, and it is, but it is also an indictment on Fields.

Yes, the staff is not helping his chances. At the same time, at some point a successful NFL player has to take to coaching. Fields is saying that he is thinking too much, but football will require being a step ahead and thinking. Fields is good enough to just play at times, but if he does not play in structure at all, the team will still lose, it will just be a little more fun.

Fields has to play more loosely, but he also has to stick to the script more. Luke Getsy cannot just call the run around and make a play out of nowhere play; that is not actually in the playbook.

Seeing Fields come to this statement so early shows the signs that he is feeling the pressure and sees the talk about him. He knows he has to spin the narrative a bit. This is alarming beyond just the coaching staff because it shows that Fields is not ready to take that step but rather worries about why the failing.
