Who Should I Start? Nick Chubb or Zamir White

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb carried the ball 20 times for 59 yards and two touchdowns while adding a one-yard reception in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Chubb's performance was the story of the game on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland. He provided a spark for the Browns with short touchdown runs in the second and fourth quarters, with the second TD being the game-winning score for Cleveland. Chubb has now scored three touchdowns and rushed for 222 yards across five games this season. He will be a high-end RB3 in Week 13's Monday night game against the Denver Broncos.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White has lost his starting job to lead back Alexander Mattison, and it doesn't look like that trend will reverse ahead of a Week 11 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. White had just six carries for 10 yards in Week 9, salvaging his fantasy day (somewhat) with a touchdown rush. Aside from the occasional score, he's not a great option in fantasy leagues considering his poor efficiency and lack of pass-catching upside. He's a low-upside handcuff, and that wouldn't change barring an unexpected shake-up in the backfield. Fantasy managers can hope he steps up his game, but after nine contests, things are much more fixed in this running back room.
