How close will Justin Fields get to Erik Kramer’s Bears’ passing records?

The Chicago Bears have the lowest single-season passing yards record (3,838) and the lowest single-season passing touchdown record (29) in the NFL, both set 28 years ago by Erik Kramer. That 1995 season featured two thousand-yard receivers (Jeff Graham and Curtis Conway), and a thousand-yard rusher (Rashaam Salaam), and the Bears had the balance of having a top-ten rushing and passing offense.

The 2023 Bears have added a legit number-one wide out (DJ Moore), they bolstered the offensive line, and their running game shouldn't miss a beat. Chicago should have one of their most dynamic offenses in recent memory, and at the center of it is third-year quarterback Justin Fields.
