Miller needs Saints lead and TD to pay off; poor efficiency and gamescript risk.

Miller is a viable flex option with significant volatility concerns. Last week he finished with 22 touches (20 carries) and 70 total yards with a 45.6% snap rate, 52.6% rushing work, and 15.6% route share (6.7% target share). However, his per-touch rushing efficiency has been putrid: only 2.4% explosive run rate, 1.73 yards after contact per attempt, and 12% missed tackle rate. If the Saints are playing from behind this week, Miller could easily get gamescripted out of the Week 7 action. Miller needs the Saints to play with a lead and a touchdown to likely pay off for fantasy purposes, both questionable propositions in Week 7. Pittsburgh allows the 14th-highest explosive run rate, 11th-most yards after contact per attempt, and 14th-highest missed tackle rate.
