From the episode
in his two healthy games, he has not topped 15 carries. He has nine fantasy points in both of those games... he has zero touchdowns... The Rams have allowed zero touchdowns to running back so far to start... Saquon has turned into a mid-to-low-end RB2, especially in this matchup.
STACKED’s take
Negative signalProjection
Barkley touchdown-dependent with zero TDs; Rams' RB defense makes him mid-RB2 this week.
Barkley has regressed alongside Hurts' declining rushing role; in his two healthy games, he has not topped 15 carries, nine fantasy points in both games, three catches through three weeks, and zero touchdowns. He is now touchdown-dependent in this offense. The Rams have allowed zero touchdowns to running backs so far this season, making this matchup particularly unfavorable. The source has lowered expectations significantly and ranks him almost RB20 (15–17 range), describing him as a mid-to-low-end RB2 in this matchup despite still starting him.
