Chicago Bears win the 2018 Fantasy Award for Best Defense

For all you fantasy football players, when was the last time the Chicago Bears had a must-start each and every week regardless of the match-up?

We might have to go back to the Brandon Marshall years, or maybe the mid 2000’s Bears’ defense and special teams to find a must-start. Matt Forte was good in PPR leagues, but his lack of touchdowns was an issue. Jordan Howard’s lack of receiving skills seemed to always leave him in that RB2 territory.

But the 2018 Bears did have a must-start each and every week, and that was their defensive unit that was taken to another level with the addition of Khalil Mack and the consistent pressure he put on quarterbacks.
