Jay Cutler, Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery's Post-Week 11 Fantasy Reaction

The Chicago Bears desperately needed to stop the bleeding amidst a three-game losing streak. One way to potentially do that would be to reinvigorate a passing game that has the ability to be one of the best in the NFL.     

At least in the first half against the Minnesota Vikings, it certainly appeared as though the passing game had awoken.

For all the strife in Chicago and the questions about Cutler's leadership, he's actually been pretty consistent for fantasy owners. And after exceeding 200 passing yards and throwing for two touchdown passes in the first half against Minnesota, he now has 16 or more fantasy points in eight of 10 games this season. 

Meanwhile, it was a positive sign for fantasy owners that both Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery each reached double-digit fantasy points after scoring first-half touchdowns. A healthy Marshall has traditionally been a weekly must-start and WR1, while Jeffery is generally a high-upside WR2 each week. 

Player	Receptions	Yards	TD	Targets	Fantasy Points
Brandon Marshall	7	90	2	10	21
Alshon Jeffery	11	135	1	17	19

If the team's passing game is clicking once again, Marshall and Jeffery are weekly starters, while you can still play matchups with Cutler. He is a low-end QB1, but his consistency for fantasy owners this season shouldn't be disregarded.
