Bears quarterback Justin Fields is sacked in the fourth quarter Sunday.

The thud you heard across the Chicago area Monday night was Bears fans dropping their remote controls onto their couch at the end of the Seahawks-Eagles game and wondering why their quarterback — who can do a lot of rare things — couldn’t do that.

Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock, making his second start since the end of the 2021 season Monday, took possession at his own 8-yard line with 1:52 to play and trailing by four. Nine plays later, he threw a 29-yard strike to rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba to take the lead and eventually beat the defending NFC champs.
