Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte rushed 20 times for 102 yards in the Week 14 win Monday against the Dallas Cowboys. He also caught seven passes for 73 yards and a touchdown. Michael Bush also rushed for 39 yards on eight carries while catching a 17 yard touchdown pass. Forte went into this game averaging 80.9 yards per game and had seven touchdowns. Bush was averaging 7.6 yards per game rushing and had not scored.

Fantasy impact: The Bears running backs benefited from an incredibly porous Dallas defense giving up the most fantasy points to running backs this year. Still, Forte has looked good this year and he went over 1,000 yards rushing in this game. The Bears will face the Cleveland Browns in Week 15. They are giving up the 12th fewest fantasy points to running back this year.
