1. QB Justin Fields has more passing yards than Ravens’ QB Lamar Jackson

The league’s Most Valuable Player in 2019 has started all nine games this season for this team. Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has connected on 64.4 percent of his throws for 2,447 yards. He’s thrown nearly twice as many touchdown passes (14) as interceptions (8).

Rookie Justin Fields has played in all team’s nine contests this season and started the last seven. The 11th overall pick in April’s draft has completed a so-so 59.4 percent of his passes for just 1,282 yards and twice as many interceptions (8) as scores (4).

This season, Jackson has thrown for at least 200 yards in all but one of his nine outings. In 2021, Fields has totaled 200-plus yards only twice. But it is certainly worth noting that the last time the Bears took the field, the standout rookie threw for a season-high 291 yards in a tough 29-27 loss at Pittsburgh.

As previously mentioned, you can look for Fields and his receiving corps to burn the Ravens for multiple deep gains. And when it is all said and done on Sunday at Soldier Field, the Bears’ promising signal-caller will outgain Jackson when it comes to aerial yardage.
