Pos.PlayerProjection
QBTarvaris Jackson

Tarvaris Jackson

196 pass yards, pass TD, INT

Jackson broke a streak of three straight games with fewer than 200 passing yards last week against the Rams, although he has gone six straight without breaking 225. Teams have been able to pass on the Bears, although Jackson is still a weak fantasy start.

RBMarshawn Lynch

Marshawn Lynch

71 rush yards, rush TD, 3 rec, 20 rec yards

Lynch's magical season continued in Week 14 against the Rams, rushing for 115 yards and a TD on 23 carries. He has now scored in nine straight games, but has a very tough matchup against the Bears' 10th-ranked defense.

RBMichael Robinson

Michael Robinson

0 rush yards, 2 rec, 13 rec yards

Some involvement in the passing game, but not enough for fantasy relevance.

WRDoug Baldwin

Doug Baldwin

5 rec, 64 yards, rec TD

Baldwin had one of his best games of the season Monday against the Rams, catching seven passes for 93 yards and a TD. Baldwin is at the top of the WR depth chart and could have more success this week against a weak Chicago secondary.

WRGolden Tate

Golden Tate

3 rec, 37 yards

Tate was targeted seven times last week by Tarvaris Jackson and they seem to be developing decent chemistry together. They will have an opportunity this week to make it even better against a weak Chicago pass defense.

TEZach Miller

Zach Miller

3 rec, 23 yards

Miller continues to compete with Mike Williams to see who is the bigger disappointment for the Seahawks this season. He'll likely be used for blocking this week against a very good Chicago run defense.

KSteven Hauschka

Steven Hauschka

2 PATs, 2 FGs

After three straight games of only one made field goal, Hauschka was 3-of-4 last week, his second most attempts all season. He shouldn't be expected to get that many this week against a strong Chicago defense.

DEFENSE

2 INTs, 3 Sacks

The Seahawks luck out this week, facing a Bears team without Matt Forte or Jay Cutler. The Bears still have speed on the outside, but the Seahawks' 14th-ranked pass defense may be able to contain them.

Pos.PlayerProjection
QBCaleb Hanie

Caleb Hanie

114 pass yards, INT, 11 rush yards

The Bears were ultra conserative, especially in the fourth quarter last week, but they may have a bit of trouble running the ball against the Seahawks. As a result, Hanie may be forced to open it up a little more playing at home.

RBMarion Barber

Marion Barber

43 rush yards, rush TD

Despite the major mistakes, Barber actually had a highly productive day with 29 touches for 140 yards and touchdown. There is the chance he ends up in the dog house, but he should get another heavy workload against Seattle's top ten run defense.

RBKahlil Bell

Kahlil Bell

22 rush yards

Bell had a healthy 14 touches last week, and should see a similar type workload as long as Matt Forte is out. There is also the possibility that his touches increase after Marion Barber's game-changing mistakes last week.

WRJohnny Knox

Johnny Knox

4 rec, 75 yards

Knox led the Bears' wideouts with five targets and 37 yards last week, but Seattle's secondary is very beatable if you need a desperation play.

WREarl Bennett

Earl Bennett

3 rec, 36 yards

Bennett has only two catches for 10 yards in the three starts with Caleb Hanie under center, so stay away from starting him until further notice.

TEKellen Davis

Kellen Davis

1 rec, 15 yards

Davis has just 14 catches on the season, but does have four touchdowns on the year. Unless he is targeted in the red zone, you won't see much production out of him.

KRobbie Gould

Robbie Gould

PAT, 2 FGs

Gould hit from a Chicago record 57 yards last week, but it was his only attempt on the day. He remains a highly accurate kicker, but will be limited by a very conservative offense.

DEFENSE

2 INTs, 3 Sacks

Seattle will have to travel cross country on a short week to face the Bears, who will be looking to prove everyone wrong after the blow up in Denver.
