There have been plenty of opinions shared on what the Chicago Bears should do at the quarterback position this off-season.

Despite the Carolina Panthers defeating the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, the Panthers’ 2024 first-round pick remains on track to be the top overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft. This means, for the second straight draft, the Bears will enter the off-season with the first overall selection.

Unlike last off-season, when it was clear that the Bears were going to deal away the top selection, it’s likely the opposite this off-season.

Quarterback Justin Fields has failed to declare himself as the answer at the position for the Bears and it would seem that a change is inevitable this off-season, especially when USC’s Caleb Williams and North Carolina’s Drake Maye are considered to be better quarterback prospects than Bryce Young and CJ Stroud were in the last draft class.

Though, Bears’ wide receiver D.J. Moore may not think so. Moore was asked about the Bears’ quarterback situation after the team’s loss to the Cleveland Browns on Sunday and sounded off on the topic.

Sure, Moore may have leaned into his stance by saying that neither Williams nor Maye are a better quarterback than Fields but this is not going to be something that is going to change the decision of what the team’s front office decides to do.

At the end of the day, Fields is still Moore’s quarterback and teammate. What Moore said after the game on Sunday was the only thing he could have possibly said without stirring up controversy for the final three games of the Bears’ season.
