DJ Moore Looks To Keep It Rolling Against Minnesota In Week 6
1 year agoChicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore will look to continue his hot streak in Week 6 against a porous Minnesota Vikings defense. Moore is coming off a career game in Week 5 when he went off for 230 yards and three touchdowns on eight catches in a Thursday night win over the Washington Commanders. He had a potential fourth touchdown called back on a highly questionable out-of-bounds call as well. The former first-round wideout has gone over 100 yards in three of his first five games as a Chicago Bear and his chemistry with quarterback Justin Fields is looking better every week. After the Bears offense looked dead in the water in Weeks 1-3, they've come alive over the last two weeks and are averaging 34 points over that span. The Bears' running game is banged up with both Khalil Herbert (ankle) and Roschon Johnson (concussion) being ruled out. So expect a lot of Moore, tight end Cole Kmet, and Justin Fields designed runs against a Vikings defense that is allowing 24.4 points per game. Moore is a mid-level WR1 for Sunday's matchup.
