The Chicago Bears will be off during Week 13 as they are on their bye following a Monday Night victory over the Minnesota Vikings. Following the 12-10 win against the Vikings, offensive coordinator Luke Getsy was criticized heavily for his constant use of screen passes for quarterback Justin Fields. Although Getsy’s play-calling has been questionable throughout the 2023 season, he has been put in a difficult position, especially with Fields’ sporadic output through eight starts this year.
With one month of football left in the 2023 season, Bears fans and the media are calling for the firing or replacement of Getsy as the team’s offensive coordinator. Many believe he has hindered the development of Fields, as a few media members believe the play-caller is deliberately trying to force the young quarterback into situations that do not favor his strengths. Fans have expressed that Chicago’s offense should feature more deep passes and designed runs for the third-year quarterback to highlight his superb arm strength and elite mobility.
