Bears vs. Falcons Prediction
Analysis by Dallas Robinson, NFL Analyst
Fields has become one of the NFL’s most exciting quarterbacks over the last three weeks. During that stretch, he’s thrown seven touchdowns and just one interception, rushed for 385 yards, and ranks seventh in EPA per play. The Bears scored 91 points from Weeks 8-10, second-most in the league behind the Dolphins.
The only problem? Chicago’s defense allowed 115 points over those games, the most in the NFL, and the Bears lost all three contests. Fields is playing out of his mind, but Chicago’s defense — which lost Roquan Smith and Robert Quinn at the trade deadline — can’t stop anyone.
Meanwhile, the Falcons’ playoff hopes took a serious hit over the last two weeks. Entering Week 9, FiveThirtyEight gave Atlanta a 44% chance to make the postseason. Two Falcons losses and two Buccaneers wins later, Atlanta’s odds are down to just 14%. At some point, Arthur Smith will have to consider giving starts to third-round rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder.
