Any startable RBs for TB this week?

Barber is the only guy id start and that would be a desperation play

I'm starting Smith

On TNF avoid these TB fourth team RB's like the plague

I'm with you. It's either him of Gillislee. Obviously if Mccoy doesn't play I start him, but if McCoy plays I have to start Smith.

I think the biggest issue I'd have starting a TB running back is having no idea what the carry distribution between Smith/Barber will be. If the game was held after two weeks ago, everyone would think Barber was a safe start. Now, Smith is the presumed starter. It could go either way though, if I were coaching TB, I'd use Barber.

I have to pick 3 between TWest, CWest, Jennings, Asiata, Smith. Leaning the West Bros and Smith because I can see him getting PPR work if TB gets down early

O/U is sitting at 51 with Falcons a 3 point road favorite.
Thats pretty high for a Thursday night game.

Y'all think playing Thursday night slows down the Falcons enough that they don't score as much as Vegas thinks? Point is that if this game were played on Sunday, I think most would assume the Falcons would be scoring rather easily and the Bucs would have to throw to keep up. That game script would probably benefit Smith's game in a PPR format I would think.

I'm probably rolling with Smith this week and hope that it stays high scoring even though it's a Thursday night game. I have a ton of meh with my other RBs though, so why not

Matthew Berry mentioned the snap breakdown was in favor of Smith somewhere in the neighborhood of 21-3 after Rogers got hurt FWIW. Smith over Barber that is.

That was a catch up game that went down to 1:00 minute on the clock in OT

Still says something they trusted Smith but that gameflow was flukey

Fwiw I think smith is good and the best back to own in TB in PPR
