Chicago @ Minnesota
Team Totals: Vikings 26, Bears 18
Minnesota’s D/ST is a preferable Week 5 play to Justin Fields, who’s committed five turnovers and taken 16 sacks through four starts and is now without LG Cody Whitehair (knee, I.R.). Even with Whitehair in there, Chicago’s offense is allowing a league-high 38% pressure rate. … Whoever gets the Bears’ running back start will be set up for success; Minnesota is hemorrhaging an average of 142.8 total yards and a touchdown per game to enemy RBs. David Montgomery (ankle) returned to practice on a limited basis on Thursday, theoretically putting him on track to play and Khalil Herbert to resume change-up duties. … Darnell Mooney is coming off a season-best 94-yard game, and the speedster’s matchup is mouth-watering on paper, indoors against the Vikings’ slow-footed corners. Bears OC Luke Getsy’s utter refusal to dial up voluminous pass plays keeps Mooney’s floor low, but this is the exact type of spot where Mooney should hit. … No other Bears pass catchers even remotely warrant fantasy consideration.
