Second-year WR Rome Odunze had his second 100-yard performance of the season, but Chicago's 4-game winning streak came to an end with a 30-16 loss in Baltimore. Odunze led the Bears with 10 targets, also the second time this season he has earned double-digit looks. His 7 receptions and 114 receiving yards against the Ravens led the team.
QB Caleb Williams completed 25-of-38 attempts for 285 yards, 1 INT, and rushed 3 times for an additional 24 yards. This is the second game in a row that Williams failed to throw for a TD. He has 2 TD passes and 3 INTs in his last 4 games.
Odunze played 59 of Chicago's 63 snaps (93.6%) and commanded a healthy 26.3% target share.
When the Bears lined up with a single WR, Odunze remained on the field, a clear sign that he is the team's No. 1 WR.
D.J. Moore was also heavily involved, playing 84% of the Bears' snaps and putting up a 4/73/0 line on 7 targets. The yardage and target numbers were new season-high marks for Moore.
Luther Burden III was limited to 11 snaps and exited in the third quarter with a concussion. Olamide Zaccheaus hauled in 7 receptions but was held to 33 receiving yards. Zaccheaus has out-snapped Burden in every game and would have WR3 duties to himself if Burden misses time.
Despite the disappointing showing from the Bears, Odunze remains a high-end weekly WR2. He'll be a borderline WR1 in Week 9 as the Bears travel to Cincinnati to take on a Bengals' defense that allows the second-most points per game.
A quick look at the most important matchup data to consider when making Week 10 start/sit decisions, including implied points, projected plays, WR/CB matchups, and adjusted fantasy points allowed.
