2. Despite DeSean Jackson’s return, Nelson Agholor will lead all receivers in catches and yards.

DeSean Jackson has all-world talent when he’s healthy, even as being one of the old guys in the league now. What makes him special is, even if he isn’t one-hundred percent, he’s still better than a lot of guys who are. Unfortunately, if you’re looking for a repeat performance of what he did in Week 1, think again.

The Bears will use Kyle Fuller, one of the best in the biz, to neutralize him slightly, but that’s why football is a team game. Jackson’s presence will open things up. That will give the other guys chances, and Nelson Agholor will lead ‘The Birds’ and all receivers for that matter in receptions and receiving yards. Stop laughing. He will.
