Dan Bailey has a huge opportunity against the Bears

Clear weather and the league's worst defense against kickers could signal a great game for Bailey. (Stadium Forecast)

Fantasy Impact:

The Bears allow 10.7 fantasy points on average to kickers, the worst average in the NFL, and a cloudy yet relatively calm 9 mph wind in Chicago could be good for the NFL's most accurate kicker. Bailey has not been a hugely successful fantasy option over the past five weeks, only averaging six points per game, but the Bears defense could be the perfect elixir. Kickers have made 87% of their kicks and six times this season a kicker has had double digit fantasy points against the Bears. Bailey is usually a top five target for fantasy purposes, but this week he might be the top scorer for fantasy kickers.
