Play ‘Em
James Robinson
Jacksonville Jaguars @ Cincinnati Bengals
If you were lucky enough to get James Robinson you will be really happy this week to have Robinson. He is getting 18 touches a game which is true workhorse numbers and has no real competition for those touches. He also has a great matchup as he faces the Bengals who have allowed the fifth most fantasy points to RBs this season. The Bengals have given up 29.83 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 27th ranked defense at defending the RB position.
Kenyan Drake
Arizona Cardinals @
Carolina Panthers
This may be the week that Kenyan Drake shows his top 10 RB potential from the end of last season. He faces a Panthers defense that has allowed a top 3 RB finish in all 3 games this season. They are second only to the Raiders in terms of fantasy points given up to opposing RBs in 2020. The Panthers have given up an average of 42.83 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 31st ranked defense at defending the RB position.
Bench ‘Em
Lions RBs vs
New Orleans Saints
So far this season it has been hard to get a read on the Lions backfield as of who to start. This week it should not get any easier as they face the Saints who are strong at defending the run game. The Saints have not given up a 100 yard rusher in 46 straight games. The Saints have given up an average of 23.00 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 14th ranked defense and defending the RB position.
Myles Gaskin
Miami Dolphins vs
Seattle Seahawks
This offseason it looked like it was going to be the Jordan Howard show but Myles Gaskin has taken over the Miami backfield. The only problem is this week he faces a Seahawks defense that just last week shut down the Cowboys Pro Bowl Back Ezekiel Elliott. The Dolphins also will probably be down in the score and have to throw more. The Seahawks have given up an average of 16.77 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 3rd ranked defense at defending the RB position.
