- Offensive Trajectory
- Form
- Versatility
- Team Motivation
The Seahawks are the fifth-worst run defense in terms of success rate, giving Jacobs a floor that is close to elite this weekend. He’s coming off of an extended week and that makes him a great bet to extend his run of 18+ carry games to five straight. If good Geno Smith shows up, no worries, Jacobs has four games with at least four receptions this season and can get you home that way.
RB PPR leaders, Weeks 11-14:
- Saquon Barkley: 114.1 (!)
- Josh Jacobs: 98.3
- De’Von Achane: 81.0
There isn’t much competition in the way for work in this offense that ranks behind only the Eagles in rush rate over expectation. We saw Jacobs post a career year in 2022, a season in which he rattled off two three-game runs of 100+ rushing yards.
Could such a streak be in store for the stretch run this year? I’m not saying it’s predictive, but during one of those streaks in ‘22 was the best game of his career (303 yards and two touchdowns) … a win in Seattle.
Interesting.
