Play ‘Em Bench ‘Em RBs For Week 3

Play ‘EM


Myles Gaskin

Miami Dolphins @

Las Vegas Raiders

This week Myles Gaskin should see more carries as the Dolphins should lean on the run game as starting QB Tua Tagovaloa is out with a rib injury. Gaskin has lead all Miami RBs in touch share this season. The Raiders have allowed 14 touchdowns and the 4th most points to opposing RBs in their last 9 games dating back to last season. The Raiders have given up an average of 68.5 rushing yards per game to opposing RBs this season. They have given up a top 10 RB finish in 2 of the 2 games that they have played this season. The Raiders have given up 25.20 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 21st ranked defense at defending the RB position.




Ravens RBs @ Detroit Lions

If you saw the game Monday night you know you need to play all of your Ravens RBs versus the Lions. If the Ravens get up on the scoreboard, which they probably will be, they will be running the ball a lot which equals more opportunities to make plays. The Lions defense has given up 6 touchdowns and the 2nd most fantasy points to opposing RBs after 2 weeks. The Lions have given up an average of 110 rushing yards per game to opposing RBs this season. They have given up a top 10 RB finish in 1 of the 2 games that they have played this season. The Lions have given up an average of 37.40 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 31st ranked defense at defending the RB position.




Bench ‘EM


James Robinson

Jacksonville Jaguars vs

Arizona Cardinals

So far this season it has not been as good of a season for James Robinson as it was last season. Some of the problem is Carlos Hyde has been getting a lot of carries out of the backfield which is cutting into Robinson’s opportunities. This week the Jags will most likely be down early and abandon the run which is bad for Robinson as he does not catch the ball. The Cardinals defense has not allowed a touchdown to a RB in their first 2 games of this season. The Cardinals have given up an average of 105.5 rushing yards per game to opposing RBs this season. They have given up a top 10 RB finish in 0 of the 2 games that they have played this season. The Cardinals have given up an average of 18.90 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 11th ranked defense at defending the RB position.




Devin Singletary

Buffalo Bills vs

Washington Football Team

On Sunday versus the Dolphins Singletary had a big game but that came on only 13 carries mostly on his 46 yard touchdown run. That means if you take away that one run he did not have a good day. Over the Football Teams last 9 games no team has allowed fewer fantasy points to RBs (15.1PPG). The Washington Football Team have given up an average of 81 rushing yards per game to opposing RBs this season. They have given up a top 10 RB finish in 0 of the 2 games that they have played this season. The Washington Football Team have given up an average of 13.90 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 6th ranked defense at defending the RB position.
