Bears vs. #1 WRs

[RattlerB]

Even though the Steelers are a hot mess, I gambled this week and started Antonio Brown (I was 0-2 and staring down 0-3 against an opponent who was 2-0 and has AJ Green, Andre Johnson, DeSean Jackson, Michael Vick and Arian Foster).

 

I figured that as tough as the Bears defense is, they really can't contain the opposing team's #1 WR:

 

Week 1 - AJ Green: 162 yards/2 TDs

 

Week 2 - Jennings: 84 yards (and that's against a team that doesn't throw the ball very well to begin with)

 

Week 3 - Brown: 196 yards/2 TDs

 

Thank you, Chicago Bears... thank you. Now I'm up by 38 points and I still have Julius Thomas tonight, while my opponent has Knowshon Moreno. Considering my overall luck, I'm gonna go ahead and say it:

 

Fingers crossed...

Peanut Tillman is hurt and Peppers hasn't been Peppers (no pass rush makes for a long day in the secondary). He is recovering from a "sickness" that has lasted about a month. The getting is definitely good for WR1s against the Bears. Hate to say that since I'm a Bears fan.

I completely agree with you on that assessment... and I'm not a Bears fan, just a Dolphins fan who lives in Chicago. But I will admit, even when he's not 100%, Tillman still makes some pretty great plays now and then (even more when he's healthy).
