New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed for 67 yards on 10 carries and had another 55 yards on six receptions in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. It was the first time since Week 4 that Kamara had over 100 yards from scrimmage. The efficiency was a welcome change compared to the last three weeks when Kamara was gaining just 2.5 yards per carry. Kamara's first touch of the game was a 23-yard run, his longest of the season until he logged a 24-yarder in the fourth quarter. Kamara was also responsible for the Saints' longest play of the day, taking a screen pass 37 yards and showing great patience in staying behind his blockers along the way. In Week 9, New Orleans will take on the Carolina Panthers. In Week 1's blowout victory of Carolina, Kamara had 83 rushing yards and a touchdown and will again be a focal point for the Saints' offense.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner recorded 53 rushing yards on 20 carries and a touchdown in the Week 9 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Conner also caught two of three passes for 16 receiving yards. The Cardinals struggled to establish the run against the stout Dolphins front. Despite this struggle, Conner made critical plays in the fourth quarter and found the end zone, delivering a solid fantasy outing and helping the Cardinals secure the victory. Conner received 20 carries and remains the Cardinals' workhorse. He is set to be a mid- to high-end RB2 when the Cardinals host the Bears in Week 10.
