Where has the Rushing attack gone?
Week #5 is upon us and all I can say is what a ride it has been. The Rams, Chiefs and Bills have ZERO rushing touchdowns. The Cardinals, Texans, Browns, and Redskins each have ONE. Tampa, Oakland, Cleveland, Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, Indy, and Arizona are not even averaging 100 rushing yards per game. Tennesse and Jaxonville lead the league with 5 rushing plays of 20 yards or more. The rushing attack has been weak all year long. Or could it be that the rushing defenses are that good.
On defense, Minnesota, Baltimore, Pittsburg, San Fran, New England, Denver, Arizona, Tennessee, and Miami are all yielding less than 100 yds per game through week 4. Minnesota and San Fransisco have not even given up a rushing touchdown all season. And Arizona, New England, Pittsburg, and Washington have only given up 1.
It looks like Fantasy Football is definitely going through another change. Several years ago, QB was the name of the game. Then the RB position took the lead and now it seems as though the WR’s and TE’s are calling the shots. To those who paid big dollars for WR’s and those who drafted WR’s high up, your one step ahead of me. I still have a lot to learn.
