Justin Fields incompetent in Week 3 thrashing

Justin Fields completed 11-of-22 passes for 99 yards, one touchdown and one interception as the Chiefs eradicated the Bears 41-10 in Week 3. He tacked on 47 rushing yards on 11 carries.

Fantasy Impact:

Following a week in which the Bears' QB was quoted making excuses and blaming others, Fields showed up on Sunday looking like a man that did not belong in the NFL. He was up to his usual miscues- holding the ball excessively long, blatantly missing wide open receivers, and making horrendous decisions repeatedly. He is lucky he wasn't benched in the second half with Chicago down over 40 points at times. The season has already unraveled for the Bears, and the fact of the matter is that Fields cannot be a viable starting fantasy quarterback if he is going to continue making such egregious mistakes. That said, a Week 4 matchup with 0-3 Denver might be one of his final chances to get back on track, especially after they gave up 70 points to Miami on Sunday.
