Play 'EM
1.Lenard Fournette Jacksonville Jaguars @ Cincinnati Bengals
Last week Fournette was on the Bench 'EM list but this week he has made his way onto the Play 'EM list. He faces a Bengals defense that was gashed last week by the Ravens for 269 rushing yards and 2 rushing touchdowns. The Bengals have given up an average of 32.91 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 31st ranked defense at defending the RB position.
2.Philip Lindsay Denver Broncos vs Kansas City Chiefs
It seems like teams may have figured out how to beat the Chiefs and their high powered offence. They have figured out that it is best to run the ball more than throw the ball. The Chiefs defense struggles in the run game as they have given up an average 434 rushing yards and 1.5 rushing touchdowns per game the last 3 weeks. The Chiefs have given up an average of 32.38 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 30th ranked defense at defending the RB position.
Bench 'EM
1.Kenyan Drake Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills
This season the Dolphins offense has been a mess as no one knows ever knows who the QB is going to be. The Dolphins will probably be losing big this week versus the Bills and abandon the run game. The Bills have given up an average of 22.53 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 11th ranked defenses at defending the RB position.
2.Duke Johnson Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts
When Lamar Miller when down in the preseason with a torn ACL it looked like Johnson was in store for a big role in the Texans offense but that has not been the case. Johnson so far on the season has zero rushing touchdowns and only one receiving touchdowns. The Colts have given up an average of 14.50 points per game to opposing RBs this season. They are the 3rd ranked defense at defending the RB position.
