Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Ollie Gordon II

The Chicago Bears' rushing attack was unstoppable in their Week 13 win over the hosting Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday. Running back D'Andre Swift carried the ball 18 times for 125 rushing yards and scored on the ground in the 24-15 victory, adding one catch on his two targets for a gain of 13 yards. The crazy part is that the 26-year-old wasn't even Chicago's leading rusher on the day, as rookie Kyle Monangai led the team with 22 carries for 130 yards and also scored on the ground. Although Swift's fantasy managers can't be all that pleased that Monangai out-touched Swift, it was still nice to see Swift score his first touchdown on the ground since Week 8. Swift was Chicago's clear lead back for most of the season, but Monangai's emergence now gives the Bears the option to ride the hot hand as they get ready for a crucial divisional contest in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II has been relegated to a minimal role recently, as the team gives more work to De'Von Achane. Gordon has gotten three carries or fewer in three of his last four games, and he only got 10 yards on his three carries against the Saints last week. He played 27% of snaps while Jaylen Wright played 10% of snaps and also had three carries, finishing with 16 yards. The rookie has shown a few glimpses of upside and scored a couple of touchdowns, but his role is so limited behind Achane that he is only a desperation play this week against the Jets. The Jets have been a great matchup for running backs this season, and especially recently, but it's uncertain if Gordon will get much work in Week 14. He's only the No. 48 RB in RotoBaller's rankings this week, so he can be left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats.
