Chester Taylor to be goal-line back

[USCChiFan]

Mike Martz tells WBBM-AM that personnel changes is the key to fixing the goal line issues. He says he will use Chester Taylor there.

Interesting move, and Forte has struggled as the goal line back, but I can't see this making a significant change in the Bears goal line woes. The Bears have had 10 tries at the one yard line, and have scored zero points

Well this is just horrible for Forte owners in fantasy league...that's all I take from it lol.

This is something the Bears should have done a long time ago. But it will hardly matter since the line can't seem to open the gaps.

Should've been done in....week 1.

Anyone that owns any Bears player in fantasy needs to have their heads examined...especially a Bears running back.

Forte has actually not done too bad.

Exactly. I think 0-10 on goal line situations dictates a change should have been made before week 7.

 

[Capt. Serious]

Figuring this out now? Just mind boggling.

In a PPR league, I own Knox, Hester, Forte, Tillman, and Idonije. I am leading my league, I've never finished lower then first place in a fantasy league. I know what I'm doing, and I don't think I need my head examined. So somehow with all those Bears, I win.

You're right, Knox is just horrible.

You obviously have no clue what you're talking about.

To be fair...Cutler scored a TD...at the goal line...but Lovie didn't wanna challenge two straight plays...But I've not been on for a few days -- and I'm sure this has been discussed already.

 

[Derkach77]

This is commons sense to me...Taylor is a great goal line back.

 

[Everyday I'm Byfuglien]

The Bears have Chester Taylor?

Watching the games, I had no clue.

Really? What's the most fantasy points any Bears player has scored this season?

I don't know what I'm talking about? I'm in four leagues and I have a few Bears players peppered throughout. So I'm one of the idiots I was referring to. But at this point in the fantasy season I'm not starting any of them.

Forte had one great game this season, against one of the worst teams in the NFL, the Panthers.

I am happy. Sucks for Matt, but Chester has a great 2nd burst that usually picks up more yards.

I dont see a problem with this... look at their goal line stats; how can you not try something new in hopes of getting it in the endzone

Taylor seems to have more vision than forte right now, I think it'll pay off.
