The Facts: Fields and the Bears’ offense recovered from a dreadful-looking performance Tuesday and at least looked like an offense-in-training Wednesday. It was a far cry from Tuesday, when Fields and the offense struggled to find any success against the defense in starters vs. starters drills. The return to normalcy Wednesday gave Fields and coach Matt Eberflus some room to breathe. But it remains to be seen whether this episode was part of the normal up-and-down process of camp -- in which the defense wins some days and the offense wins others -- or a familiar red flag. "It’s gonna come," Fields said when he was asked about the frustration of enduring days when the offense looks as bad as it did Tuesday. "My competitive nature -- everyone on the offensive side of the ball’s competitive nature -- you’re gonna want to have a successful play every play. But you also gotta know when to take your wins and losses."

Diehards Line: According to Sun-Times staffer Mark Potash, the Bears have had numerous bad offensive days in training camp through the years. But even by their own low historical standards, their performance Tuesday was disconcerting. It was a sign that this offense, with a developing quarterback, developing offensive line, developing receiver corps and a first-year, first-time offensive coordinator in Luke Getsy, has a long, long way to go, with no assurance it’ll get there. But that's where the Bears’ offense is now, failing more than succeeding but claiming to be making incremental progress that is not discernible to the untrained eye. From the inside, Fields said he sees the offense heading in the right direction. "I think we’re progressing every day," he said. "We’re not where we want to be yet, though, for sure." There’s still a long way to go. And it’s not a big surprise the Bears’ offense is struggling to get its footing in the first week of camp with a new coordinator, a second-year quarterback learning a new offense and so many new pieces. It's something fantasy managers need to be mindful of as the season draws nearer.
