Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Lions was rock bottom for Matt Eberflus and the Bears. The defensive-minded head coach's defense just gave up more than 500 yards of offense.

The Bears dropped to 3-13 and could set the franchise record for losses next week. I imagine this season can't end soon enough for Bears fans.500: The Bears defense had a historically bad afternoon. It allowed 504 total yards.

Their 39 rushing attempts were also a season high. Running back Jamaal Williams led the way with 144 rushing yards. The Bears hadn't allowed 265 rushing yards or more since the 2013 loss to the Eagles, the same game where they gave up 514 total yards. Fields' record chase: With another 132 rushing yards on Sunday, Justin Fields is just 63 yards shy of Lamar Jackson's single-season quarterback rushing record.

Fields became the fourth quarterback since at least 1970 to rush for more than 100 yards in at least 4 games. Russell Wilson has done it 4 times. Vick did it 10 times. Jackson has done it more than any other QB, with 12 such performances. Fields become the second QB to rush for 100 yards in a quarter since 1991, joining Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts, who rushed for 103 yards in a quarter against Green Bay earlier this season.
