From the article

The Bears just gave up 478 total yards of offense and 353 passing yards to Bryce Young and the Panthers. Young has thrown for over 350 yards only one other time in his career. If Kyler Murray doesn't clear concussion protocol, Carson Wentz would be a good streaming option simply because of the matchup. Throw in the fact that Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison are better than the Panthers' entire receiving room, and Wentz finds himself in a favorable spot.

The Bears just allowed 478 total yards and 353 passing yards to Bryce Young and the Panthers in Week 1; Young had only thrown for over 350 yards one other time in his career. If Kyler Murray doesn't clear concussion protocol, Wentz would be a strong streaming option against this vulnerable Bears defense.
