Chase Brown Goes for Over 100 Rushing Yards in Win Over Steelers

Friday, October 17, 9:26 AM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had 11 carries for 108 yards and added two catches for -8 yards on Thursday night against the Steelers. It was the most productive game of the season for Brown as he went over 100 rushing yards for the first time since Week 9 of last season. Coming into the game, he had just 304 total yards from scrimmage and one touchdown in six games. But he was able to find plenty of running room against a Pittsburgh defense that had been tough against opposing running backs. His snap share also rebounded to 63.2% in this one after being closer to 50% in the previous two games. Hopefully, this signals better days ahead for Brown as the Cincinnati offense is trending in the right direction with Joe Flacco under center.

Caleb Williams Rides Hot Streak Into Favorable Week 7 Matchup Against Saints

Saturday, October 18, 12:07 PM

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is riding high as he leads the team on a three-game win streak. Through five games, Williams has completed 98 of 159 passes for 1,179 yards and nine touchdowns, while throwing just two interceptions. The second-year quarterback is also contributing with his legs, adding 108 rushing yards and two scores on 28 carries. Williams is averaging 20.8 fantasy points per game, ranking as the QB7 in fantasy through six weeks. He draws a favorable Week 7 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. The Saints' defense struggled mightily in Week 6, surrendering 261 yards and three touchdowns to Drake Maye on just 18 completions. With another soft matchup on deck and Chicago's offense clicking, Williams profiles as a strong mid-QB1 for Week 7.
