No Willis, no problem, NaVorro. Mr. Bowman should have himself a huge game with Patrick Willis unlikely to suit up in Glendale.

D.J. Williams is the highest available IDP from your rankings. Not that I don't trust your judgment, because I'm picking him up, but make me feel really good about it by telling me why he's gonna tear it up this week.

I think the Bears have no choice but to run a lot of interior runs against the Broncos D. Considering that Von is back, their line doesn’t have the skills or agility to run a lot of stretches or sweeps. The Vikings ran a lot to the perimeter on Sunday and it didn’t work out well for them.
Plus if they do pass chances are it will be a slip screen or a short pattern to a TE. DJ should be able to get at least a few tackles on those plays.
