Marvin Jones had a rare off game for the Detroit Lions in Week 14. He failed to get 85 receiving yards for only the second time since Week 6. Jones caught three passes for 64 yards in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Sunday. He had one catch for 22 yards in Week 10 versus the Cleveland Browns. The fifth-year deep threat leads the Lions receiving core in yards and touchdowns. He has been playing lights out for the Lions lately with 90 yards or more in five of the last eight games.

Jones will look to bounce back against the Chicago Bears Saturday night. He had a good game versus Chicago in Week 11, catching four passes for 85 yards and a touchdown in the contest. The Bears have a soft secondary. Kyle Fuller leads the charge; however, his teammates cannot contain the full Lions arsenal.
Fantasy impact: Saturday should be a good night for Jones. The Bears have lost key pass rushers on the defense since Week 11. That should make things even easier in the passing game. If Fuller lines up with Tate again, Jones could have a field day on the rest of the Bears secondary. He is a must-start for the playoffs this week.
