Derrick Henry (@BUF) is coming off two down weeks, but the return of Lamar should make a huge difference as he's a different player when Jackson is with him in the backfield. Buffalo is bad against the run AND the pass and allows the fourth most FPPG to opposing RBs.

Henry smash play at BUF; Lamar's return elevates him, plus 15 red-zone carries

Derrick Henry at BUF is a smash spot in Week 8 despite coming off two down weeks. The return of Lamar Jackson makes Henry a different player when Jackson is in the backfield. Buffalo allows the fourth most FPPG to opposing RBs, and Baltimore will want to establish the run to keep the ball away from the NFL's #1 scoring offense. Henry is second in the NFL with 15 carries from inside the 5-yard line.
