Can Bears Defense Return To Form?
3 years agoThe Chicago Bears defense will have its hands full in Week 1 against the Rams in their brand new Sofi Stadium. The Bears defense was fantasy elite in 2018 but slowly have dipped in the rankings in each proceeding year. Now they will face a Rams offense that gave them issues last season, even with quarterback Jared Goff under center. The Rams are excited to now have Matthew Stafford as their QB1, a player the Bears defense has plenty of experience against. Chicago's defense allowed the 11th fewest fantasy points to opposing passers, the ninth fewest to running backs and the eighth fewest to wide receivers. The Bears should be able to snag a turnover or two from Stafford but the unit may struggle to post top-10 numbers playing with a Chicago offense that may not give them much on the other side of the ball.
