Dan Bailey was two for two on field goals and kicked five extra points in the Cowboys' 41-28 win over the Bears.
Fantasy Impact
The Bears allow the most points in fantasy to kickers, so it is not a surprise that Bailey was a double digit point kicker once again. This is a welcome sight for fantasy owners that have waited six weeks for Bailey to return to his double digit fantasy point form. In the first six weeks of the season, Bailey was in double digits four times, including a 19 point outburst against the Titans, but he has an uphill battle for the remainder of the season. The Cowboys will face two of the top fantasy defenses against kickers, Philadelphia next week followed by Indianapolis in Week 16, so Bailey owners may have an unpleasant surprise in the playoffs. This is not to say that you should look for a new kicker this late in the season, but at least keep your eyes open for similarly reliable kickers with better matchups like Matt Bryant.
