6) Bucky Irving vs. New Orleans
He finally made it back onto the field last week, and he looked great. It took a bit for him to knock off a little rust, but by the end of the game, he was flying through holes and attacking the defense just like the guy we remember from last year. This week, he should feast on a weak Saints defense that’s ranked 21st against the run in a game that should have a very favorable game script for the Buccaneers running game.
7) Quinshon Judkins vs. Tennessee
This game has a few interesting story lines considering the two teams have a combined record of 4-20. While many will be tuning in just to see Shadeur Sanders fail, I will be interested in seeing how Judkins and the running game are able to work in a contest that the Browns are actually favored to win. I think the rookie back is going to get the ball well over 20 times and will score at least once.https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/category/nfl-teams/jets/
8) Bijan Robinson vs. Seattle
This isn’t a great matchup against the #2-ranked run defense in the league, but Bijan is matchup-proof. He won’t have the room to run he had last week against the Jets, but he will be involved both as a rusher and pass catcher for Atlanta all game long. This won’t be one of his signature spike weeks, but he should still grind out 16+ fantasy points.
