David Montgomery Has Favorable Tilt Against Titans

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will go up against a Titans Defense that is allowing the 10th most fantasy points to running backs this season.

Nick Foles Has Make-Or-Break Matchup

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles will have an opportunity to get his season on track in Week 9 against a vulnerable Titans Defense.
