Notable Matchup:
Matt Forte (@GB):
With Marc Trestman as Head Coach, Matt Forte has been unstoppable against Green Bay. In the three games since Marc Trestman was hired, Matt Forte is averaging 23 carries, 159 total yards, and a touchdown a game against the Packers.
- 2013: Week 9 Win, Forte rushed the ball 24 times for 125 yards and a touchdown with 5 catches for 54 receiving yards.
- 2013: Week 16 Loss, Forte had 22 rushes/110 rushing yards/2 touchdowns with 4 catches/47 receiving yards/1 touchdown.
- 2014: Week 4 Loss, Forte had 23 rushes/122 rushing yards with 5 catches/49 receiving yards.
His Week 4 performance of 171 total yards further shows that, in Trestman’s system, Green Bay has no answer for the shifty 28-year old back. Coming off of four straight 20+ fantasy games and with three straight 100+ rushing yards games against the Packers, Forte ranks as the number one fantasy back in Week 10.
