Top 50 Running Back Rankings - Week 5
Curious how your fantasy football running backs rank among all the running backs available for week 5? Here is a ranking list for fantasy football running backs based on matchups and potential fantasy point outcomes for week 5. So check out how your fantasy football running backs stack upRUNNING BACK RANKINGS
1. LaDainian Tomlinson - SD = @Mia
Looks like Tomlinson is finally getting healthy. Another 100 yard rushing game and 1-2 touchdowns should be in store.
2. Marion Barber - Dal = Cin
Could easily be ranked #1, however Tomlinson is too savvy of a veteran option to not get the nod. 100-125 rushing yards, 1-2 touchdowns.
3. Adrian Peterson - Min = @NO
Man this is looking like the Week of the Running Back. Peterson is another guy who could easily be ranked #1 this week. 100-125 rushing yards, 1-2 touchdowns.
4. Matt Forte - Chi = @Det
Forte finally beats out the bigger named running backs this week. If you have Forte on your team, this is a must play week for the rookie.
5. Frank Gore - SF = NE
New England hasn't been as good as advertised, and Gore shoulders the offensive load for the 49ers every week. 100-120 total yards, 1 touchdown
6. Michael Turner - Atl = @GB
Green Bay has been terrible at stopping the run lately, which means Turner could have a field day as the main component of the Falcons offense. 80-100 rushing yards, 1 touchdown.
7. Joseph Addai - Ind = @Hou
Coming off the bye week, Addai should be getting healthier and healthier to start making good on his high draft pick status. 80-100 rushing yards, 1 touchdown.
8. Larry Johnson - KC = @Car
After exploding last week, Johnson should carry the load for the Chiefs offense again this week. 80-100 rushing yards, 1 touchdown.
9. Marshawn Lynch - Buf = @Ari
Disappointed me last week, however a matchup against Arizona means he's still a top 10 fantasy running back option. 100 total yards, 1-2 touchdowns.
This week, we review the signs and symptoms of cardiovascular disease, investigate the correlation between high fructose corn syrup and obesity, and meander down a murky path with a "smoking degenerate" as he lays down his plan to train for a Marathon.
