Bears quarterback Caleb Williams didn’t have a bad week. Jets quarterback Justin Fields did.

Williams posted a 61.7 passer rating, the fifth-worst of his career, in a 12-point victory against the Saints that gave the Bears their longest winning streak since the end of 2018. Another victory Sunday in Baltimore would give them their longest streak since the same season, which was the last time they won the NFC North.

Those are nice problems to have compared to Fields, who heard Jets owner Woody Johnson trash his performance seven games into a two-year, $40 million contract.
