RB14: Bucky Irving (at CAR). Played a career-high 85 percent of the offense's snaps in Week 6! The three-down role is there, baby! And Bucky continues to look pretty damn solid out there: The third-year talent ranks third in yards after contact per carry (3.8) and seventh in tackles avoided per carry (25%) — the problem is that goal-line opportunities haven't exactly been abundant inside the Buccaneers' lackluster 25th-ranked scoring offense, leading to Irving totaling 58, 61 and 49 scoreless yards in his last three games that haven't come against the Cowboys.

Irving's elite efficiency and snap share offset Bucs' weak scoring and QB uncertainty.

Ranked RB14 for Week 7 at CAR; played career-high 85 percent of offense's snaps in Week 6 with three-down role in place; ranks third in yards after contact per carry (3.8) and seventh in tackles avoided per carry (25%); problem is goal-line opportunities haven't been abundant in Buccaneers' lackluster 25th-ranked scoring offense, leading to 58, 61, and 49 scoreless yards in last three games not against Cowboys; matchup with league's fifth-worst defense in PPR points per game allowed to position might be what Irving needs to break through, but source hesitant to believe heavily as long as QB situation remains mystery.
