Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery was questionable to face the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football. The 26-year-old suited up, and he delivered a big-time performance for fantasy managers who rolled the dice on him. He rushed 32 times for 121 yards and three touchdowns and caught two passes for 20 yards in the win. He continues to be the clear lead back for Detroit and is a must-start fantasy option moving forward, regardless of matchup.

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard had a mediocre game in a Week 4 win over the New England Patriots. With the Cowboys defense dominating throughout, the Cowboys didn't need to run their best plays with their best players on offense, ending up with Pollard taking just 11 carries for 47 scoreless yards. He added three catches for 13 yards on three targets. There were 15 other running plays out of the Cowboys backfield that didn't involve Pollard. Week 5 should be a closer game against the San Francisco 49ers, making Pollard a likely RB1 in that matchup.
