Richardson home against Jags
Mckinnion home against Packers

I'm having a difficult time picking a replacement for Foster. Both could be a decent play with Bradshaw and Asiata out.

Colts shouldn't be playing from behind and will probably end up bleeding clock running Richardson...also hard to not take him against the Jags. So, Richardson for sure.

McKinnon will likely have more boom potential... TRich hasnt played well all season, and something tells me, it didnt just click for him. Herron is likely to share snaps if TRich struggles early. Just something to consider. I dont think Tate takes any carries away from McKinnon this week... maybe next.

I have McKinnon in two leagues and he's on the bench in both. I see his upside, but Green Bay will likely blow Minnesota out...which means Minnesota will be playing from behind. Also, McKinnon has had not done anything to prove he's worth the start (unless youre in a deep league)...he had a good opportunity last week too and didn't do much with it. Its a crapshoot between the two either way, I like TRich's matchup more.

Dont get me wrong... you're spot on in what you're saying. McKinnon is the explosive catching back. He's a 4 quarters kinda back, whereas if TRich is struggling and doing his usual 1.9 ypc or whatever it is, they wanna see what they have in Herron for playoffs sake. But again, like you said, its a crapshoot.

McKinnon or Crowell... Who would you start?

I'm rolling with McKinnon this week in the flex. Tate's only been there a few days, no way he takes a lot of touches away from JM

I am a Crowell owner, so this is a little biased.

I'd roll Crowell.


Reasoning: Gordon is back... he's likely to piss hot at any time, but defenses will be forced to scheme for a true receiver threat, thus, opening up the run. I dont think the Browns would've released Tate if they didnt like what they saw.


ETA: Timing of Gordon coming back and the release of Tate is interesting as well.
