The Chicago Bears lost yet another game on Sunday as they fell 33-22 to the Arizona Cardinals. With Justin Fields still recovering from cracked ribs, Andy Dalton got the call at quarterback but he also suffered an injury in the process to his hand.
That being said, Bears head coach Matt Nagy seems to have no idea who will start in Week 14 against their divisional rival, the Green Bay Packers.
Bears head coach Matt Nagy says it will be an "ongoing discussion" throughout the week with Justin Fields and his availability for Sunday's game in Green Bay. "We're never going to put him at risk medically. Never."

There's obviously still a lot of time until the Bears' next game, but this is concerning. Fields and Dalton are the only QBs who have actually played for Chicago this season. If both players weren't able to suit up, they would have to go with veteran Nick Foles.
Fields sustained his injury against the Ravens in Week 11 and hasn't played since. Dalton meanwhile was pretty awful on Sunday, throwing four interceptions and getting sacked twice. He did complete 26 of 41 passes for 229 yards and two touchdowns, though.
The Packers possess one of the best defenses in the entire NFL and will be looking to feast. Foles hasn't taken a snap all season. Hopefully, Dalton or Fields can be ready to go by Sunday at Lambeau Field as the Bears look to pull off the upset amid their distraught season.
