New Orleans @ Chicago
Team Totals: Saints 23.75, Bears 19.25
Drew Brees is a two-quarterback-league play only against Bears DC Chuck Pagano’s defense, which held each of its initial seven signal callers faced to fantasy finishes of QB19 or worse, the NFL’s third-fewest yards per pass attempt (6.6), and a pathetic 6:5 TD-to-INT ratio. Brees will play Sunday’s game without Michael Thomas (ankle/hamstring), Emmanuel Sanders (Covid), and Week 7 leading receiver Marquez Callaway (ankle). … Still the true engine of New Orleans’ offense, Alvin Kamara enters Week 8 on pace for career bests in touches (323), total yards (2,197), and touchdowns (19) to face a run-funnel Bears defense enemy backs have tagged for 4.40 yards per carry and six rushing TDs in seven games. With 17-plus touches in 6-of-6 appearances, Kamara sets up as a high-floor, high-ceiling RB1 play here.
