 GREEN BAY VS CHICAGO (24-14 GREEN BAY WIN) CHICAGO: QB - Justin Fields 47 Fields wasn't horrible in this game and in fact had two drives that truly showed off his long term capabilities. He has a chance to be a good player down the road as his tools are absolutely off the charts. That said at this point he is an absurdly slow processor of plays and really struggles to get off his first read and to discern defenses.

It helped he was under very little pressure all day and his running backs kept them mostly ahead of the sticks. He did a nice job of finding easy throws and it led to 342 yards and a QBR over 80.
