Chicago Bears Fantasy Football Analysis – Week 2

Week 2 – vs Arizona – L 23-48

QB: Cutler looked normal then got hurt.  Clausen was all kinds of awful.  A lot was the line’s fault but he wasn’t good.

RB: Forte a nice game but needs other players to be better or he’ll get all the attention from defenses.  He’s an elite player but he won’t have any monster games if this type of play around him continues.

WR: Jeffery DNP.  Bellamy caught a long TD on a blown coverage.  Nothing to get excited about.  Royal a nice PPR game but he just isn’t capable of being the main guy.  Not talented enough to get open against better coverage.

TE: Bennett an okay game and was a foot away from a TD and overthrown on another.  Should be strong considering lack of talent at receiver any time Jeffery is not playing.

OL: Atrocious.  It takes a lot of terrible to get your QB tackled before he can hand off to a RB on a non-delay running play.  Serious problems and they could run the fantasy players on this team into the ground this season.

Def: Horrid.  Got the ball run down their throats by backups and torched for 4 TDs by passing game despite less than 200 yards passing.  Gave up big games to everyone.  Start everything against for now.

Chicago Bears Week 16 Fantasy Analysis

Week 16 – vs Detroit – W 20-14

QB: Cutler DNP.  Clausen actually looked better than average fantasy numbers indicated.  Hurt by a ton of drops and some really bad ones.  Handled good pressure pretty well.

RB: Forte another big game with receiving included.  Showing absolutely no signs of slowing up and no reason to be scared of taking him early next season, for now.

WR: Jeffery a good game and looked great at times, bad at others.  Just not sure how dominating a player he can be without Marshall around.  Wilson was okay but still not overly excited by him yet.

TE: Bennett did zero.  Just didn’t get targeted much.  Most of the check-downs seemed to go to RB.

OL: Average game.  Couldn’t produce much for ground game and got QB rushed most of the way.  A bit over-matched in this one but didn’t get dominated.

Def: Got run on for a ton and wasn’t covering overly well.  Fuller is going to be a pretty good shutdown corner in the future.  Gave up good games to RBs and #1 WR.  Decent game to #2 WR.  TEs were barely given a look.
