Who Should I Start? Brian Robinson Jr. or Jerome Ford

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. tallied 103 yards and a score off 16 carries during their Week 13 victory over the Tennessee Titans. He was not targeted in the passing game. Robinson wasted little time as he posted an impressive 40-yard TD run on their opening possession. The Commanders would have a sizeable lead throughout, which allowed Robinson to see a slight decrease in workload by the second half. However, with Austin Ekeler (concussion) sidelined, the Alabama product would dominate touches while the game was close. Fantasy managers should feel confident viewing Robinson as a solid RB2 with scoring upside heading into his Week 15 matchup against the Saints, as the Commanders are off next weekend.

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford carried the ball nine times for 41 yards and added a 21-yard reception in a 41-32 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 13's Monday night game. While Nick Chubb struggled, Ford looked explosive, ripping off several long gains and averaging 4.6 yards per carry. It goes as his best performance on the ground since October 6 against the Washington Commanders. That being said, Cleveland is committed to running Chubb on early downs and near the goal line, which will limit Ford's ceiling in fantasy. He remains a solid handcuff option but doesn't hold much standalone value with Chubb healthy. Ford will face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers on the road in Week 14.
