What to Watch For
Heading into Week 14, Saints WR Kenny Still had lots of momentum. He struggled however last week, with just 3 catches for 23 yards. Keep an eye out for Stills to have a big game against a Chicago defense that has allowed nearly 33 fantasy points per game to opposing WRs over the last two weeks.
With Brandon Marshall out for the remainder of the season, Bears WR Alshon Jeffery becomes an obvious No. 1 option in the Chicago aerial attack. Jeffery has scored at least 1 TD in the past four games. He's projected to finish with 114 yards and 1 TD on 8 receptions.
