(670 The Score) As Bears quarterback Justin Fields’ future with the organization remains uncertain, top receiver DJ Moore continues to express his support for Fields.
“I really don’t see why anything would change,” Moore said on the Mully & Haugh Show on Tuesday morning. “Most people love Justin here (in the city of Chicago). I mean, most people as in like most of the fans love Justin.
“Look at what he’s done – he’s grown every year. He had (two) different offensive coordinators … He’s grown more and more each year. Even throughout this year, you can see his growth.”
Moore marveled at how Fields has the ability to be “special,” and he believes that Fields and the Bears receiving core can ascend to another level with more time and work together. Moore shared that thought when discussing Fields’ accuracy and what can be done to improve it.
“You can improve it,” Moore said. “It comes with working on timing and being with the same group of guys throughout the course of the season or the years that you are together. Because once you improve the timing, everybody knows where the one-two-three reads are going to be, and he can expect them to be exactly at that depth at the right time.”
Fields, 24, has completed 60.9% of his passes for 2,146 yards, 15 touchdowns and nine interceptions in 11 games this season. Two of those interceptions came on Hail Mary throws.
Fields has an 85.4 passer rating, which ranks 18th in the NFL among players who have attempted at least 100 passes this season. Fields has a 44.7 QBR, which ranks 22nd in the league.
