Bears quarterback Justin Fields throws against the Patriots on Monday night.

Quarterback Justin Fields is getting better but still not close to where he wants to be — or where the Bears expect him to end up.

“I think it’s gotten better each week, and it needs to continue to get better because he’s nowhere near where he wants to be or where we want him to be,” offensive coordinator Luke Getsy said Thursday. “But it gets better each week. He gets more confident each week, not only in our relationship, our scheme, but being on the field and understanding what it looks like, what it feels like, coverages, fronts and all that stuff.
