The Chicago Bears wanted to see consistency from Justin Fields and he produced in his return from injury but it wasn't enough in a 31-26 loss to Detroit.

00:20 We just played a heck of a scene.
00:22 Number one in Artificial.
00:24 Like I said, probably top three, top five in the league right now.
00:28 So, if I'm keeping it real, we should have won that game.
00:33 It just comes down to finishing and executing at the end of the game.
00:38 So, that's how you do it.
00:41 Jared Goff, he does a great job not turning the ball over in the way our defense was able to create takeaways.
00:50 It was big for us.
00:51 And as an offense, we've got to, of course, turn those into touchdowns rather than field goals or no points at all.
00:56 But, yeah, that's kind of how you keep the morale up.
00:59 We know who we are.
01:00 We know what kind of team we are.
01:02 And we've just got to be better.
01:03 We've just got to finish.
01:04 And like I said, when those big moments happen, when we need those big plays, we've got to execute.
01:08 That was just in the plan, to be honest with you.
01:11 But, yeah, if the D-end takes the running back, then I'm out on the edge.
01:17 And if he plays me, then I'm taking him away from the runner and hopefully another defender.
01:23 So, yeah, that's just what we have in the game plan.
01:25 And, of course, I think we did a good job on the ground running the ball.
01:28 O-line did a heck of a job in the run game protecting our game.
01:31 He came down with a lot of recovery.
01:33 It was just one-on-one.
01:35 He had a beat.
01:36 And I think he just misjudged the ball.
01:39 He was running straight.
01:40 And then I think he tried to run a little bit like that and got off balance a little bit.
01:44 And that's what caused him to kind of lose his speed.
01:46 So, you know, he's a young player with a bright future in this league.
01:50 And he'll be good about that.
01:52 It felt like it was the first game of the season out there.
01:54 So my body felt good.
01:56 I was just trying to practice just to keep my conditioning up running-wise and stuff like that.
02:01 So, you know, my body felt good 100%.
02:04 Yeah, so my middle finger--I don't want to freak you all out--but my middle finger just started bleeding pretty crazy out there.
02:11 So I just had to go on the sideline and get some liquid Band-Aid put on there and stop the bleeding.
02:17 But, yeah, it didn't have anything to do with the drop.
