The Chicago Bears still have a long way to go when it comes to improving their passing game, but Week 11 was a good first step for Caleb Williams & Co. following the firing of former OC Shane Waldron. Williams produced two 60+ wide receivers in Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers, surpassing 230+ passing yards for the first time since Week 5.
This week the Bears have a tough matchup against the division rival Minnesota Vikings and a Brian Flores defense that has put opposing QBs in a blender at times this season. The good news for fantasy managers, however, is that the matchup has been favorable in terms of game script and volume for opposing wide receivers. The Vikings rank third in receiving yards per play against opposing WRs (184.4) and are tied for the eighth-most receiving TDs allowed for the position, which ranks as the third most fantasy points per game this year.

While it’s probably not a great spot for Williams specifically, rookie Rome Odunze and veteran DJ Moore might be in a position to see some volume, and therefore fantasy production.
