Will It Be Fields or Bagent for Bears?

Tyson Bagent is an undrafted rookie from Division II Shepherd University, and as Chicago’s QB1, he’s performed about as well as could be expected from someone with that limited experience to big-time football.

Bagent is 1-2 SU in three starts. He’s thrown for 697 yards, with three touchdown passes against six interceptions. Bagent’s passer rating of 70.9 ranks 36th among NFL QBs.

Regular starting QB Justin Fields returned to practice late last week. He’s missed three games with a dislocated thumb. However, he remains limited in practice. Fields is listed as doubtful to play against the Panthers.

Panthers Not Restless About Young

Despite coming off his worst game as a pro, Panthers head coach Frank Reich is expressing no qualms about staying with 2023 first overall draft pick Bryce Young as his QB1. That’s even though he has seasoned veteran and former Bears QB Andy Dalton in reserve.

In last week’s loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Young was intercepted three times, including a pair of pick sixes. Indy came into that game as the 32nd-ranked defense in the NFL.

While going 1-6 SU as a starter, Young has thrown eight TD passes and been picked off seven times. His passer rating of 77.1 is 29th in the NFL. Young’s QBR of 29.5 is 32nd among NFL QBs.

Panthers vs Bears Prediction

Let’s be brutally honest – both of these teams stink. But it’s the Panthers who are truly terrible.

Carolina is 26th in the NFL in scoring offense (17.5 points per game) and 28th in TDs scored (14). The Panthers don’t win outright and they don’t cover.
