Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions fantasy and betting forecast

Justin Fields is a top-four quarterback in SI.com's list of the best players to start this week. He is ahead of Josh Allen, Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts.

Fabiano's list of top 10 fantasy receivers does not include a single Bears receiver. Fields and Patrick Mahomes are the only quarterbacks recommended by Fabiano this week who have no targets on his top-10 receiver list for this weekend. Sports Illustrated's Shawn Childs has his current Week 10 projections posted and he sees a 227-yard passing game coming for Fields against the Lions. Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions are this weeks top BearDigest plays.

Justin Fields has scored touchdowns both running and passing in each of the last three games. Fields made his first career home start against the Lions last year and went 11 of 17 for 209 yards.

Jared Goff is facing a shorthanded defense. He's thrown 14 TD passes to seven interceptions this year. Goff has been below 215 yards passing only once. In his last three games against the Bears, Goff threw for 690 yards.

Amon-Ra St. Brown is going against rookie cornerback Kyler Gordon. St.-Brown hasn't caught a TD pass in the last five weeks.

David Montgomery has 70.5 yards rushing for an average of 17.2 attempts in six games against Detroit. The Bears weren't happy with their overall running attack last week.

Khalil Herbert had one of his quietest games of the year last week. Miami's sixth-ranked run defense shut down the Bears. Herbert will break loose if he gets more carries from Montgomery.

Jamaal Williams has averaged 43.6 yards on 11.5 rushes against the Bears for the Lions and Packers. He's gone over 5.0 yards per carry in three of his last six games this year.

Darnell Mooney has made 17 catches for 329 yards against the Lions for four games. He hasn't scored a touchdown against them this year.

Chase Claypool will get more chances to catch passes from the Chicago Bears than against Miami. The Lions have had problems with consistency in production and personnel usage in the secondary.

Cairo Santos hasn't missed a field goal this year. His streak goes back to last December at 19 straight now. The Bears are middle of the pack in TD percentage within the red zone at 55.17%. The temperature is going to be in the 30s so it's unlikely they'll risk much from 50 yards or longer.

Cole Kmet had five catches last week. He has averaged 7.7 yards per reception for his career against the Lions. Detroit has linebackers who are faster and decent coverage players.

Lions RB D'Andre Swift has carried only seven times since coming back from an ankle injury three weeks ago.

Detroit's defense is holding Green Bay to 15 points. Eddie Jackson is a safe play in IDP leagues.

The line is Bears by 2 1/2. Over/under is 48 1-2 for the game.

Chase Claypool made two catches and could have had three more in the game if not for a drop and a penalty. The Bears are going to target him against a porous Lions pass defense.
