The Chargers remain among the most injury riddled teams in the NFL. They are the only team so far this season to have all their grades lower than a B-. Keenan Allen is unlikely to play with his hamstring and Melvin Ingram will be a welcome return if he can suit up. The Chargers have already dealt with 14 injury reserve players through the season, which is higher than the league average. This also includes three defensive tackles out for the Chargers which may unlock David Montgomery for a much needed breakout game. The Bears main loss continues to be Akiem Hicks who is on injured reserve with an elbow injury. Mitch Trubisky was tentative last week coming off his left shoulder dislocation and playing with the harness, but expect him to be better this week in terms of his health. The Bears are bottom three in the NFL in total offensive yards per game and will look to capitalize on the Chargers defensive injury woes.
