Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Saquon Barkley

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert has had a disappointing 2024 campaign. The 2023 rushing touchdown leader has only scored two all year, and his carries have taken a drastic hit due to some fumble troubles in the middle of the season. Overall, the Miami offense has found running the football challenging this year, ranking 24th in rushing yards per game. Week 18 presents a matchup with the New York Jets, who have been solid at defending opposing running backs. They rank 12th in fantasy points allowed to running backs. That, combined with the run-blocking inconsistencies of the Miami offensive line, makes Mostert a sit for Week 18.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley delivered another stellar performance in Sunday night's 22-10 win over the Green Bay Packers. Barkley rushed 25 times for 119 yards, marking his 11th game this season with over 100 rushing yards. While he only contributed two receptions for four yards in the passing game, Barkley's ground dominance was pivotal in the Eagles' offensive game plan. Barkley's consistent production continued to showcase why he is the centerpiece of Philadelphia's offense. His ability to churn out tough yards and extend drives helped the Eagles control the tempo against a stout Packers defense. As the Eagles prepare to host the winner of Minnesota Vikings/Los Angeles Rams in the Divisional Round, Barkley will remain a critical component of their postseason success.
