Mitch Trubisky Has Tough Test Against Vikings
6 years agoChicago Bears quarterback Mitch Trubisky has been named the NFC Offensive Player of the Week after dominating the Lions in Week 10. But he will face perhaps his toughest test of the season Sunday night in Week 11 against division foes the Vikings. Minnesota's defense this season is allowing the 11th fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks and have allowed multiple touchdowns to only two passers through nine games this season. The Vikings will be fresh off their bye week and have not allowed an opposing quarterback to pass for more than 250 since Week 5. Trubisky has emerged as a top-10 fantasy option this season and has 19 total touchdowns over his last five games. The second-year quarterback also has over 300 passing yards in four of his last six games played. Trubisky has been plagued, at times, with inaccuracy issues in the passing game but has the athleticism to keep plays alive with his legs and has 320 rushing yards on the season to go along with 2,304 passing yards. Trubisky has ascended up the fantasy ranks this season but could struggle to post top-10 fantasy numbers among quarterbacks in Week 11.
