Chicago Bears DFS Spin
Bears S Eddie Jackson (foot) is doubtful to play in Week 3 against the Chiefs. As if the Chiefs needed any more help in Week 3. They are 12.5 favorite against a floundering Chicago roster that is imploding before our eyes. With or without Jackson, expect the Bears to struggle to contain the best quarterback in the league.
Kansas City Chiefs DFS Spin
NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Kadarius Toney (toe) is a game-time decision for Week 3 against the Bears. Toney didn’t practice on Wednesday or Thursday before getting in a limited session on Friday. Given his extensive injury history, it wouldn’t be surprising to see the Chiefs hold him out for a week. If he can’t go, Rashee Rice could get some extra run as the team’s third receiver, though it would be hard to trust the rookie for fantasy purposes.

Bears vs. Chiefs Prediction:
The Chiefs will roll today as a home favorite. The number doesn’t scare me. If we read between the lines, the Bears coaching staff is asking Justin Fields to be a quarterback. He has responded by being what he has been since he entered the league: A runner. The Chiefs defense played well the last two weeks. If they bottle up Fields and force him to play quarterback, he’ll struggle. On the other side, Patrick Mahomes and Co. will terrorize a deflated Chicago defense.
