Yards hard to come by for Forte
by Dale Redman | Tue, Sep 16th 2:06am EDT
Sunday night versus the 49ers, Matt Forte couldn't get anything going on the ground or in the air. The Bears workhorse RB only had 21 yards on 12 carries. Forte also was held in check catching the ball out of the backfield. He had 5 catches for 15 yards.
Fantasy Impact:
The 49ers game planned to stop Forte and TE Martellus Bennett as the other 2 big weapons in the Bears offense (Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery) were limited by injuries. Even though Forte did not produce in Week 2, he still remains an elite level RB option due to the volume of touches he will receive week in and week out. The Bears RB is a must start RB1 next Monday night versus the Jets.
