The Jets run defense has permitted an average of only 52.5 yards per game this season and hasn’t allowed an opposing running back to gain more than 43 yards. (ChicagoBears.com)

Fantasy Impact:

There is no denying that the Bears starting running back will be facing a tough defense this week. Although it may be tough to run the ball this week, expect Matt Forte to rack up some receiving yardage as the Jets focus on Jeffrey and Marshall. Even in a tough defensive matchup, Forte should be in your starting lineup.
