Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Jahmyr Gibbs

Saturday, September 13, 10:59 AM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall will look to build off his strong start this Sunday when his team hosts their division rival, the Buffalo Bills, at MetLife Stadium. The Jets' offense was flying high in Week 1 despite ultimately losing out in a shootout to former teammate Aaron Rodgers. Hall saw new quarterback Justin Fields rush in two scores in the loss, although he operated as New York's primary rusher, toting 19 carries to a combined eight for backfield mates Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. Moreover, he saw four targets - the second-most on the team. The 24-year-old boasted just one outing of over 100 rushing yards in 2024, and he'll get a chance to eclipse the century mark again this weekend. Buffalo was torched by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1 for 238 yards on the ground, and Hall and Fields could give the team fits again when they visit East Rutherford, New Jersey. He's a fringe RB1 - RotoBaller's PPR RB11 - ahead of Week 2's slate.

Detroit Lions star running back Jahmyr Gibbs had no problem carving through the Chicago Bears' defense on Sunday, as he rushed 12 times for 94 yards (7.85 YPC) and hauled in all three of his targets for an additional 10 yards through the air. His touchdown run came from six yards out in the first quarter to put the Lions up 7-0. The Lions never looked back and ended up winning 52-21 on the afternoon. Most importantly, the Lions offense looked the part on Sunday, proving that their Week 1 stinker was an outlier in what is still an offense with an extremely high ceiling. Gibbs remains the X-factor in this offense and remains a must-start at the running back position moving forward. Next up for Gibbs and the Lions is a tough matchup at Baltimore in Week 3.
