Overview

• Chicago Bears are in a position to build around quarterback Justin Fields, despite owning next year's No. 1 overall pick.
• Fields has been hampered by an ineffective offensive scheme and lack of support from the front office.
• The Bears' general manager, Ryan Poles, has been criticized for focusing more on defense than offense.
• Fields' performance in critical situations is being closely scrutinized as the Bears consider their options for the future.
• The Bears could potentially use their high draft picks to add more talent around Fields, rather than replacing him.
