Chicago Bears

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet caught all three of his targets for 26 yards in their loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday afternoon. Kmet's three targets tied him for the lowest total among Chicago pass catchers. This was a sharp decline from the ten targets he saw last weekend. Throughout the season, Kmet has been unable to string together consistent fantasy performances. He has eclipsed double-digit PPR points on three occasions but fell under 5.0 PPR points in four games. Fantasy managers should continue to view Kmet as a risky TE2 in all formats heading into a Week 14 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze brought in just two of his six targets for 25 yards in their loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday. Odunze's longest reception of the afternoon went for 19 yards. While his solid target share is encouraging, the Washington product has been unable to post consistent fantasy performances throughout his rookie season. Since Week 8, Odunze has seen at least six targets in each contest but has only eclipsed 50+ yards in two of those games. Given how productive Keenan Allen and DJ Moore have performed over the past two weeks, Oduzne remains the clear No.3 option on this offense despite his incredible potential. For now, fantasy managers should continue to view the former first-round selection as a risky flex option in most formats heading into a Week 14 tilt against the San Francisco 49ers.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore led all Chicago pass catchers with 97 yards during their loss to the Detroit Lions. Moore also brought in a team-high eight receptions and a score off an impressive 15 targets. Moore's touchdown came off a 31-yard pass from Caleb Williams in the fourth quarter. Moore's 15 targets also set a season-high. This was another strong showing for Moore as he tallied 106 yards and a score on seven receptions last weekend. This is a great sign for Moore, as he averaged a mere 6.1 PPR points during Weeks 6 through 10. Despite his inconsistencies this season, fantasy managers should feel confident starting Moore going forward, given the positive trajectory of the Chicago offense. Next week, he will face a tough San Francisco secondary that has allowed the ninth-fewest PPR points to opposing wideouts but should still be viewed as a low-end WR2.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen caught five of his eight targets for 73 yards and two scores in their loss to the Detroit Lions on Thursday afternoon. Allen found the back of the end zone twice on Thursday, on a 31-yard strike and a nine-yard strike from Caleb Williams. His eight targets and 73 yards were both second-most among Chicago pass catchers. This was also the second straight game in which the veteran wideout scored a touchdown. Last week, Allen caught nine of his 15 targets for 86 yards. After averaging just 13.5 PPR points through his first eight games as a Bear, Allen has begun to find his footing and should be viewed as a WR3 with upside in PPR formats next weekend, heading into a Week 14 tilt against the San Francisco 49ers.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift tallied 39 yards on 11 attempts and added 35 yards on two receptions in their loss to the Detroit Lions. Swift's longest run of the day went for 12 yards, and the longest reception went for 29. The Bears were trailing for most of the afternoon, which shifted much of the offensive play-calling to favor the passing game. This was also the second-straight game Swift did not find the back of the end zone. Before this two-game slump, Swift averaged 18.3 PPR points per game during Weeks 4 through 11. Fantasy managers should still view Swift as a solid RB2 heading into a Week 14 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
