Justin Fields defends Andy Dalton in face of 'disrespectful' Bears fans booing QB, calling rookie's name

Chicago Bears fans are not pleased with Andy Dalton.

The veteran quarterback started Saturday's preseason game against the Buffalo Bills with three three-and-outs and a possession that ended with a fumble. By the time his day was done after two quarters at Solider Field, the Bills led, 34-6.

Meanwhile, first-round rookie Justin Fields remained on the bench carrying the hope/burden of becoming the franchise's first star quarterback since, well — ever? So Bears fans who paid real money to watch not-so-real football got impatient.
