The Week 8 NFL schedule concludes with a matchup of NFC contenders as the Seattle Seahawks host the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET. Seattle enters as a 3.5-point favorite with an over/under of 46.5 points. The game presents a strength-versus-strength clash: the Seahawks lead the NFL in total defense, while the Bears rank third in total offense.
Notable players for daily fantasy consideration include Bears quarterback Caleb Williams, Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold, Seahawks receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Bears tight end Colston Loveland, and Bears running back D'Andre Swift. Seattle running back Jadarian Price has been activated from injured reserve ahead of the game.
SportsLine daily fantasy expert Mike McClure, a professional DFS player with more than $2 million in career winnings, has released his optimal lineups for the single-game slate. McClure's prediction model simulates every snap, accounting for matchups, statistical trends, and injuries.
One of McClure's top picks is Caleb Williams, who has an over/under of 227.5 passing yards. Despite the Seahawks' formidable defense, Williams has thrown for over 300 yards in each of his last two games since returning from a hamstring injury, including an 83% completion rate against the Falcons in Week 6.
McClure also builds around Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who leads the NFL in receiving yards (867) and receiving touchdowns (8). His target share is approximately 36% in the Seahawks' offense, and his over/under for receiving yards is set at 99.5 — the highest among all pass catchers in this matchup. The Bears rank 16th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers.
Additionally, McClure has identified an undervalued player who could deliver significant value on Monday night. His full lineup recommendations, rankings, and strategy are available through SportsLine.
