From the episode

I would start both Bears running backs over Luther Burden. They have only had double-digit PPR fantasy points in the same game three times in two years.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Burden's inconsistency with Swift/Monongai makes him a lower-priority start than other options.

The source cautions against starting Burden despite the Bears' strong rushing attack, noting that both Bears running backs (Swift and Monongai) have only combined for double-digit PPR fantasy points in the same game three times over two years, with one instance in week one this season. Burden is ranked below both Bears running backs and multiple other receivers in start-sit hierarchy.
