KANSAS CITY, Mo. — As if Bears quarterback Justin Fields didn’t have enough concerns, especially heading into a game against the defending champions, he unnecessarily turned the temperature up on himself by critiquing his coaches and saying he was ready to clear his head and play his way.
When asked what that would look like, he responded sharply, “You’ll see soon.”
That proved wildly overconfident. The Chiefs had an untouchable lead on the Bears in the second quarter Sunday and pummeled them 41-10.
They dropped to 0-3 while getting blown out by the quarterback they could’ve drafted and the coach they fired, as the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes lit them up with three touchdown passes before mercifully calling it a day with a 41-0 lead in the third quarter and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy grinned on the sideline.
