Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or J.K. Dobbins

Saturday, November 23, 9:04 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry cooled off a bit over the last couple of weeks compared to his huge outputs through the first nine weeks. He's gone up against solid defensive units and will try to find some running room against even better ones over the next two weeks. In Week 12, the Ravens take on the Los Angeles Chargers who are the third toughest team against backfields. They only allow 14.6 fantasy points per game to opposing running back groups in half-PPR formats. While Henry remains a must-start, fantasy managers may want to temper expectations in this matchup since he could end up around a low-end RB1.

Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins has a tough matchup in a Week 12 Monday Night Football contest against the Baltimore Ravens. While Dobbins ranks in the top-15 in running back fantasy points, snap share, and carries, the Ravens defense has been elite against the run and awful against the pass. In the running game, the Ravens defensive unit is top-five in almost every important metric, so Dobbins is unlikely to rack up tons of yards. In what could be a high-scoring game though, there's a chance he'll find the end zone and still put up an RB2 performance. His floor is a bit lower than usual this week, however.
