David Montgomery Fantasy

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will try and lead a running game that has struggled mightily the past few weeks heading into the team's Monday Night Football matchup against the Rams. The second-year running back has posted 50+ all -purpose yards in every game this season but has posted over 60 rushing yards twice. He will go up against a Rams Defense that is allowing the 12th fewest fantasy points to opposing backs this season and have not allowed a running back to post more than 10 fantasy points against them since Week 3. Montgomery will be the featured back in Week 7 but the Bears lack of production in the running game will hurt his value against the Rams.

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery carried the ball 19 times for 58 yards with four catches for 39 yards in the Bears 23-16 win over the Panthers in Week 6. The Bears running game has struggled for weeks now and the ineptitude continued. But Montgomery made some plays in the passing game in the first half and grinded out some tough runs for first downs down the stretch. The second-year running back almost found the end zone but official review nullified the score and Montgomery will have RB2 status, based on volume, against the Rams in Week 7.

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will have an excellent fantasy opportunity in Week 6 against the Panthers. The second-year running back has produced mixed results through the first five games, producing only 371 all-purpose yards while averaging only 3.7 yards per rush. Montgomery will have a fantastic matchup, however, against a Panthers Defense that is allowing the most fantasy points to running backs this season. Carolina has allowed nine total touchdowns to running backs this season, including 23 fantasy points or more to four different runners. Montgomery has gotten off to slow starts in games but has finished strong. He will have lower-level RB2 value in Week 6.
