Here is what Justin Fields can do to improve his level of play
The quarterback position is by far the most complex position in football. Well, it is also clearly the most important one in any team. It's pretty simple, if your quarterback is not playing well, you won't have success in the long-run.
With that being said, Bears' QB Justin Fields is currently going through a rough patch. However, Chicago has been pretty fortunate to still get away with two ugly wins in the first 3 weeks in spite of Fields' struggles.
Well, here is what Bears senior writer Larry Mayer had to say on the possible ways to get Fields back on track.
What do you think Justin Fields can do to improve his game?
Coach Matt Eberflus said Monday that quarterback Justin Fields will work this week in practice on his footwork and timing in terms of when he releases the ball. Both were issues Sunday against the Texans. The Bears hope that better footwork and timing will help him eliminate interceptions like the two Fields threw versus Houston, both of which came on overthrown balls down the middle of the field. Asked specifically about Fields' second interception�a pass intended for receiver Darnell Mooney that was thrown into triple coverage, Eberflus said: "He's just got to handle the ball better. He just can't put the ball in harm's way. He knows that. On that particular play, he did. He's got to do a better job of that."
