Who Should I Start? Joe Mixon or James Conner

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon continued his excellent form in a 24-22 loss at Green Bay, finishing with 115 yards rushing, two touchdowns, and two catches for nine yards. The veteran back found the end zone twice in the first half, scoring from two and four yards away. The former Oklahoma Sooner looks to be in a good spot within a talented Houston offense in which he is afforded volume, red-zone touches, and regular work in the passing game. Mixon will look for more of the same when the Texans play the Indianapolis Colts in Week 8.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner totaled 152 yards on 21 touches in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The Cardinals struggled to sustain anything offensively unless Conner had the football. However, Conner failed to reach the end zone; his volume, which included 21 touches, made up for it. Conner made big play after big play and broke many tackles in Monday's win. Heading into Week 8, the Cardinals will take on the Miami Dolphins, and Conner should remain in all fantasy football starting lineups.
