5 bold predictions for the Detroit Lions vs. Chicago Bears in Week 17
1. Jared Goff finishes as the QB1 in fantasy for championship week
However driven by a deficit and 42 pass attempts, Goff finished as the QB2 in fantasy for Week 16. He also had top-five fantasy finishes in Week 13 (QB4) and Week 14 (QB4).
Andy Behrens of Yahoo! has a bold prediction for Goff in Week 17.
"In three of Jared Goff’s last four games, he’s passed for over 300 yards with multiple touchdowns. He is an absolute lock to hit those marks in Championship Week against an outrageously soft Chicago defense, a group that’s allowed 26.2 points per game and 7.7 yards per pass attempt. The Bears have no hope of containing Detroit’s loaded receiving corps. Goff is about to deliver a top-three positional finish at the best possible time."
A top-three fantasy finish for Goff this week is a fine bold prediction. I’m firmly on the bandwagon where he will deliver a top-end fantasy finish against the bad Bears’ defense.
But I’m going all in now. Goff got some fantasy managers to this point with a nice recent stretch. Now he’ll win some leagues (including a casual one where I’m in the final and have him) with a finish as the QB1 in fantasy for Week 17.
