Watt won’t be able to shut down the Bears offense completely. All three of the Bears running backs will see some carries at some point, but it will be the rookie Jordan Howard that makes the highlight reel with a short touchdown inside the 5.

Howard will prove that he’s worthy of the Bears’ goal line carries and he will continue to grab more and more carries from Jeremy Langford and Ka’Deem Carey. He could potentially be the starter by midseason, but he should be the team’s running back inside the 10 consistently (hint for all you fantasy players).
