Kyren Williams (Rams) vs. Chargers: The Rams have a hilariously subpar setup in that the Chargers are coming off the bye and they play in literally the same stadium, so even though the Rams are -6.5 favorites at home, they have almost no HFA. But the Chargers are No. 28 in defensive rush DVOA (0.1%), and Williams is on pace for his fourth straight season of 1,200+ yards and 12+ TDs (17.3 fantasy points per game, 731 yards, 6 TDs on 96 carries, 41 targets, 90 Utilization Score).

Williams on pace for fourth straight 1,200+ yard, 12+ TD season; Chargers No. 28 rush defense.

Williams is on pace for his fourth straight season of 1,200+ yards and 12+ TDs (17.3 fantasy points per game, 731 yards, 6 TDs on 96 carries, 41 targets, 90 Utilization Score). Facing the Chargers, who are No. 28 in defensive rush DVOA (0.1%), Williams should get enough usage to capitalize despite No. 2 RB Blake Corum stealing more work over the past two weeks (36% snap rate, 49% rush share, 50% goal-line rush share, 16% route rate). The Rams are -6.5 favorites at home, though they have almost no HFA because the Chargers are coming off the bye and play in the same stadium.
