Who Should I Start? Raheem Mostert or Saquon Barkley

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert has been nonexistent since his costly fumble back in Week 9 against the Buffalo Bills. So much so that he didn't even receive a single carry last week vs. the Las Vegas Raiders in their 34-19 win; that can all change this week. Mostert will go up against a New England Patriots run defense that has given up the third-most rushing yards to running backs this season. It should also be noted that in his last three meetings, the 32-year-old speedster averaged 82.3 rushing yards per game and had three touchdowns. With the recent lack of playing time, Mostert is a touchdown-dependent flex at best for Week 12 and is RotoBaller's RB40 for Week 12.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley will go on the road to take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12. The 27-year-old tallied nearly 200 total yards against the Washington Commanders last week and found the end zone twice. Washington was a solid matchup heading into last week, but the Rams present a bit more of a challenge. Los Angeles has allowed just six rushing touchdowns this year and they allow the 11th-fewest fantasy points per game. With that said, the Eagles are without wide receiver DeVonta Smith and have been the run-heaviest offense in the NFL as of late. Barkley is matchup-proof and is a no-brainer must-start in Week 12.
