lovelystyle

Sitting at 5-1, and the Chicago Bears enter with the franchise's best record through six games since 2012.Awaiting their arrival inside their spaceship of a stadium will be and the Los Angeles Rams (4-2), a club looking to bounce back after a tough lo s to a longtime rival.As we approach Rui Hachimura Jersey the midway point of the season, this showdown between two of the NFC's best could end up carrying big playoff implications when all is said and done.Will Goff be able to get the bear off his back?Of the 11 teams Goff has faced at least twice, the Bears are the only opponent against whom he's yet to throw a touchdown. To make matters worse, Goff has thrown a combined five interceptions and 353 yards in those meetings. One has to believe that adds a little more fuel to the former No. 1 overall pick's fire. It's worth noting that mi sed last season's 10-point win and was absent the year prior when L.A. lost by nine. Both will be at Goff's Davis Bertans Jersey disposal Monday night. The Rams are favoring a more ground- Moritz Wagner Jersey centric attack these days, but the duo have excelled in generating yards after the catch despite having fewer opportunities. Goff utilizes play-action on a league-high 42.1 percent of dropbacks and his targets have been great at creating separation; they'll need plenty of that against the Bears' stingy corners. Chicago ranks top-10 in pa s yards allowed per game (224.2) and has surrendered a league-best one touchdown to a wide receiver, but Woods/Kupp will be their toughest test, to date.How will Chicago's skill players fare against L.A.'s pestering secondary?Let's start with the obvious: is priority numero uno for the Rams. Garrison Mathews Jersey He has accounted for 474 of the Bears' 1,438 receiving yards, which is the seventh-highest pct. (33.0) of a team's receiving yards in the NFL, per NFL Research. Robinson's catch radius naturally means he'll be matched up against former teammate , who covered him well in the last clash. Foles has an INT in each of his four appearances (three starts), so he'll need to be particularly selfish with Ramsey and a formidable secondary lurking. L.A. has allowed the fourth-fewest YPG (209.5) on the year. Running back and his improved pa s-catching will also be key; the second-year pro entered Week 7 with the eighth-most rec. yards (163) Deni Avdija Jersey among RBs. Given how susceptible the Rams have been versus dual-threat backs -- 305 rec. yards (sixth-most) -- his presence could weigh heavily. , who has a team-high four TDs and logged 13 targets over the past two games, could again find a way to be a factor, as well.
