Kareem Hunt probably has more upside in a best-case scenario than Chubb, though the receiving upside is probably capped either way when Deshaun Watson is QB. Nick Chubb is an elite rusher, but a relatively small portion of the Browns' 500.3 points last season went his way thanks to his limited passing game role. Browns – You know how things work in Cleveland by this point, and it's not dissimilar to what is happening in New England. Stevenson is the only back on the roster with the potential to see enough work in a three-down role to challenge for 300-plus points. Harris is solid, but he's unlikely to ever be much more than that thanks to his limited pass-catching role, which is why a significant share of the 513.1 points the Patriots produced went to other running backs. Patriots – Damien Harris had a solid season, finishing as RB14, but you can already see why we're hoping Rhamondre Stevenson might cut into his work this season. He remains a viable zero-RB target in PPR. They totaled 515.7 points, and it's worth remembering that there could be more room for Nyheim Hines, something the coaching staff has made a point of calling out this offseason. 1 RB also produced the most Fantasy points. Colts – It shouldn't be much of a surprise that the offense that produced the No. Let's take a look at some of those offenses and the rest of the best and worst offenses from last season in total RB points and see what we can learn from them: The five best
The Bills are a good offense, but because Allen scrambles rather than dumps it off and because he's such a dominant force near the goal line, they just haven't been particularly conducive to producing Fantasy points for running backs.) Unless they're willing to drastically alter how they use Josh Allen, especially near the goal line. (On a related note, this is why I'm not willing to get excited about Bills rookie RB James Cook. If they were seeing 65% of the RB touches, they could be quite good anything less, and they were close to useless more often than not.
All three teams have had noteworthy Fantasy producers in those periods – James Robinson, Myles Gaskin, and Devin Singletary, respectively – but as any of you reading should know, these players always had extremely thin margins for error. On the other end of the spectrum, the Jaguars, Dolphins, and Bills have been the only three teams to finish in the bottom 10 in RB scoring in each of the past three seasons. And I think three of those four teams make sense – you might be surprised to see the Patriots there given how rarely they have a single must-start back, but they actually consistently rank among the top teams in combined RB production, they just tend to spread it around a lot. Over the past three seasons, there have been four teams to rank in the top 10 in combined production by running backs each season: The Vikings, Browns, Packers, and Patriots. ORCHARD PARK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Josh Allen #17 and Devin Singletary #26 of the Buffalo Bills celebrate a touchdown during the fourth quarter of the game against the Washington Football Team at Highmark Stadium on Septemin Orchard Park, New York. In today's newsletter, we'll be looking at the best and worst offenses for RB scoring last season, with an eye on how those teams might divvy up their points or change things up in a way that could make a big difference for Fantasy. The Buccaneers don't run the ball much, but they threw the ball to Leonard Fournette and gave him so many red zone opportunities that he ended up RB4 in points per game in PPR scoring. Still, the quality of the offense matters, and the shape of the offense matters, too. Generally speaking, we'd rather see one running back dominate a pretty good offense than two split an elite one. Of course, it didn't matter so much for our purposes when touches were being split in the second half of last season between three different backs. Titans running backs combined for 465.8 PPR points in 2021, the sixth-most in the league, compared to 420.9 and 380.9 the previous two seasons.
We'll lead off today's newsletter with a stat you might find surprising: The Titans had more production from the running back position in 2021, when Derrick Henry missed more than half the season, than they did in either 2020 or 2019, when Henry was healthy and putting up huge numbers.
