Fields Ignites Soldier Field
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields played the best NFL game of his young career against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Down a touchdown in the second half, Fields scrambled on 4th and 1 and eluded multiple defenders for an electric 22-yard touchdown run.

Although the Bears didn’t come out on top, Fields finished with 103 rushing yards, becoming the first Chicago quarterback to rush for 100 yards in a game since 1973. He finished with 19/27 passing, 175 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT; 10 rushes, 103 yards and 1 TD.
On other side of the ball, Nick Bosa recorded a multi-sack performance with three TFL.

Heyward Hits Milestone
The Pittsburgh Steelers (4-3) found a way to beat the Cleveland Browns (4-4) despite losing their kicker midway through the division road game. Cameron Heyward had four tackles and two quarterback hurries as the Pittsburgh Steelers won, 15-10, in FirstEnergy Stadium. On the Browns’ opening series of the game, Heyward hit a career milestone.
Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland offense faced a third-and-7 from the Pittsburgh 7-yard line. Mayfield dropped back and was dropped by Heyward and T.J. Watt. With the half-sack, Heyward moved past Joey Porter into fifth place on the Steelers’ all-time career sacks list.

Bell and Hubbard Stand Out in Loss
The Cincinnati Bengals (5–3) blew a 31-20 fourth quarter lead to the New York Jets (2–5), but it wasn’t due to the play of Vonn Bell and Sam Hubbard.
Bell tied his season-high with nine tackles and recovered a key fumble that he forced in the second quarter. The turnover resulted in a field goal for the Bengals and extended their first half lead to 17-7.
