What is your favorite game-script build and why?

Notorious: My favorite game script is the Seahawks getting out to an early lead and forcing the Bears to air it out. I plan to fade D’Andre Swift completely while loading up on Caleb Williams and the passing game. This game script would also bode well for my favorite MVP/CPT in Zach Charbonnet.

headChopper: There are many different ways this game could play out, especially with it being played in Chicago in late December. My favorite game script differs from what I see as the most likely scenario. My preferred build features both QBs, with the remaining roster spots filled by pass catchers in an air-raid shootout. I think these teams have the personnel to pull it off, and if it happens, you’d likely have a unique roster.

ncorfield8k: Both of these teams are in the top 8 in pass rate in neutral situations over the past 5 weeks. I don’t see any reason for that to change here, with minimal winds expected in Chicago. There should be a lot of passing in the first half, at least, and it could continue all game if it stays close. I’ll have a lot of both passing attacks.

Davis Mattek: I think this game ends up looking not that different from last week’s DET/CHI game. The Seahawks go up early (with less efficiency passing), and then the Bears spend the second half chucking the ball to Rome Odunze / Keenan Allen / DJ Moore while Zach Charbonnet salts the clock.
