Dan Campbell highlights the difficulty of trying to defend Justin Fields after seeing his performances in the last three weeks.
Over the last three weeks, Fields has put the Bears' offense on notice through a conglomerate of quarter-designed runs and keen decision-making in the pocket.The offense also converted 10-of-16 third downs last week, which accounted for their best conversion rate in a single game this season.
“And then, certainly his ability on third down, that’s where they really got Miami was man, there’s a number of third-and-8, third-and-10, third-and — there’s an opening in there and he takes it and he’s gone," Campbell said."And one of them for 60-something yards. So, that’s where he’s very lethal, but it’s very much built around him. So, I think the starting point is obviously 32 [David Montgomery] and 24 [Khalil Herbert]. But then, it’s him because he’s very dangerous.
Certainly, the Lions will have their hands full on Sunday. Even after upsetting the Green Bay Packers with a 15-9 win at home, they still have to deal with Fields. The Bears' offense has averaged over 30 points per game in the last three weeks and maintains one of the most lethal rushing attacks in the league. Behind Fields, the offense has been on a production tear.“I think you’ve got to use a little bit of everything,” Campbell said. “Really, I think there’s a place to spy, I think there’s a place to pressure, I think there’s a place to really play more coverage and keep everything in front of you and then rally to it.
“But I think there’s no easy answer to playing this guy because you see it all over the tape week after week. But it’s certainly something that we’re preaching and it’s the cast the net, close the net."
