Should You Start or Sit James Conner in Week 15?
Conner has seen at least three targets in nine straight games and has 17+ carries in five of his past seven, making him the owner of one of the most consistent roles in the sport.
Might the Cardinals finally be operating in a positive game script? If that’s the case, I like Conner’s chances of giving you top-15 production against a below-average defense in all metrics.
Conner has cleared 100 total yards in each of Arizona’s past two wins — I think he makes it three straight on Sunday.
