Game two was much, much better. In their first home matchup of the season, the Chicago Bears week 2 game ended with a victory against the Cincinnati Bengals. But this week, a couple things were different for the Bears, and we don\u2019t just mean the scoreboard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From the offense to the defense, the whole Chicago Bears team\u2019s week 2 performance was solid. The defense made some strides in the right direction by creating turnovers and even putting points on the board. And for the offense, they managed to find success after their starting quarterback went down and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/nfl\/recap?gameId=401326129\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Justin Fields took over for the Bears<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

Last week, Justin Fields saw plenty of playing time in the Chicago Bears week 2 matchup when starting QB, Andy Dalton, went down with a leg injury in the second quarter. Dalton returned to the game at one point, but he wouldn\u2019t take the field again after halftime. This led to something that all Bears fans have been waiting for: Justin Fields time!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through one complete half of football, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/blog\/chicago-bears\/post\/_\/id\/4710766\/once-bears-turn-to-justin-fields-at-qb-theres-no-going-back\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Justin Fields<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> played\u2026 well\u2026 just okay, honestly. Fields went 6\/13 on passes, totaling 60 yards through the air with one interception and no touchdowns. He also managed 31 yards with his legs on 1o attempts. No touchdown this week though, which unfortunately meant that our rookie was scoreless in the Chicago Bears week 2 game. Luckily for us, we didn\u2019t need him to do much more than that. If he would\u2019ve done a bit more, there\u2019s a chance Nagy would change his old tune about Dalton starting, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/matt-nagy-andy-dalton-will-continue-to-start-over-justin-fields-if-healthy-170341706.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">but that doesn\u2019t seem to have changed since Monday<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. All we can do is wait, but if the Chicago Bears defense can play all season like they did in week 2, it might not even matter who we have leading the offense.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sbi-embed-wrap\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media sbi-embed\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CUDVd_xNF-1\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Talk about a statement!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After basically embarrassing themselves in the season-opener, the Chicago Bears defense turned things around at home. Even as they faced the talented Joe Burrow, Chicago\u2019s defense didn\u2019t give in one bit as they turned the ball over four times. Three of those were interceptions and they happened to occur on three consecutive passes! Poor Burrow. He never threw more than two picks in college, and it took him 11 games as a pro to throw two in a game. The Chicago Bears week 2 defense changed that narrative for sure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=IUlwPvkswvc\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chicago Bears highlights<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> came from the defensive side, when linebacker Roquan Smith returned an interception 53 yards for the score. It was quite the defensive effort from start to finish, and something that Chicago fans hope to see continue as the season goes on.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"sbi-embed-wrap\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media sbi-embed\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CUBjezQrs4J\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"13\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Despite Nagy\u2019s statements, all signs point to Justin Fields starting for us next week given Dalton\u2019s injury. The Browns are a little beat up too, as their quarterback, Baker Mayfield, played through a shoulder injury in their win last week. They\u2019ve also lost receiver Jarvis Landry, and Odell Beckham Jr. hasn\u2019t played this season yet either. Both teams are 1-1, and we\u2019ll keep our heads up that the Bears walk away 2-1 after their noon game next Sunday, September 26.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s still plenty of time for the Bears to improve this season.
