Joseph Randle may not have an impact tonight against the Bears

Joseph Randle was successful against the Bears in last season's matchup, rushing for 53 yards and a touchdown, but the Bears have been successful against secondary rushing targets this year.

Fantasy Impact:

The Bears have only allowed multiple running backs to rush for 50 yards in two games this year, Week 1 against the Bills and Week 10 against the Packers, so Randle has an uphill battle against the stingy Bears defense tonight. Randle had one of his four 50 yard games in his NFL career in last year's matchup with Bears, as the Cowboys rolled up 198 rushing yards in a 45-28 loss. The Bears allow four yards per carry on the season and Randle has a 6.7 yards per carry this season, so there is an opportunity, but he has only averaged 3.3 touches per game this season and DeMarco Murray looks stronger as the season progresses. Randle may be used as a change of pace, but he will have minimal effect on the game.
