Chicago Bears defy projections, knock off Baltimore Ravens, 253.74-184.94
Chicago Bears showed up, securing a 253.74-184.94 victory over Baltimore Ravens, who fell short of projections. Baltimore Ravens took an 18.30-point lead on Thursday, but Chicago Bears held the lead the rest of the way. They were led by Leonard Fournette (56 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 83 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Breece Hall (97 Rush Yds, 1 Rush TD, 100 Rec Yds). Marquise Brown (8 Rec, 78 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) and Mark Andrews (8 Rec, 89 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) carried the flag for Baltimore Ravens in the loss. Chicago Bears (2-3) will look to notch another W against Washington Football Team, while Baltimore Ravens (3-2) will attempt to get back in the win column against Dallas Cowboys.
Projected to score 13.54 points, Hall more-than-doubled that amount by scoring 31.7 points as the Jets beat the Dolphins 40-17. He racked up 197 yards from scrimmage and ran for a touchdown to beat his projection by the highest percentage of any player on Chicago Bears this week. Hall will play the Packers next week.

Chicago Bears
Whoa, Chicago Bears, you got friends at SpaceX or something? Not only did you win by almost 69 points, you also skyrocketed up to 13th place in the league standings. Nice job!
Baltimore Ravens
Whoa now, talk about under-utilized: As a group, the starting backfield for Baltimore Ravens collectively recorded one catch on just two measly targets this past week. Instruct those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 6!
