0:00.0 | This is the video that will help you improve your fantasy team, especially now that the buy weeks are here. |
0:04.3 | Look, plain and simple, if you're not trading, you're not trying in fantasy. |
0:07.1 | The goal is to improve your team, whether you're the best, number one overall in your league or the worst. |
0:10.7 | So in this video, we'll discuss five running backs that you everybody was down on him and saying, oh, Zach Moss is the starter. Oh, Chase Brown's not seeing work. Everybody, calm down. |
0:24.4 | It was just one week. Yeah, the early season usage wasn't good, but Brown is too talented of a player |
0:28.4 | and had too much training camp hype to just not be involved in the offense. And oh boy, |
0:32.4 | ever since week one, he's been involved in the offense. You can see here, week two, he gets 18% of the snaps. Week 3, 23%. So the usage is slowly increasing. Week 4, a season high, 42% of the snaps, |
0:42.2 | leads the backfield with 52% of the rush attempts, one more than Zach Moss, and even sees his |
0:47.2 | most routes run 33%. His usage in this game overall was great, and it led to a strong fantasy day. 15 carries, he gets 80 yards. |
0:54.4 | Overall, he totals 92 yards, sees a couple of touchdowns. |
0:57.6 | And the key thing on those touchdowns, he got the goal line usage. |
1:00.6 | He scored from one yard out and three yards out. |
1:03.4 | That is a fantastic role for Chase Brown. |
1:05.7 | Now, all offseason, we heard that this was going to be a 1A, 1B backfield with Zach Moss, who signed for, you know, a decent contract, nothing crazy coming over from the Colts in the second year player, Chase Brown. |
1:14.1 | And maybe that's what we're seeing. |
1:15.0 | That's exactly what we saw this past weekend. |
1:16.7 | Now, I don't think this Chase Brown usage means that he's now the number one running back on |
1:19.9 | the team. |
1:20.2 | No, Zach Moss in a quality |
1:30.7 | offense with the Bengals right now looking good. Looking good from a fantasy perspective since they got |
1:34.5 | T. Higgins back, maybe not in real life record wise. But the thing I was really encouraged with was |
1:38.4 | the usage that we were seeing out of him. We were getting some outside zone runs, which are kind of the thing we expect. This is a guy who has a lot of speed. |
