The Patriots rank 26th in half PPR points allowed to opposing running backs, giving up just 17.0 points per game to the position. On tape, Jacobs is not in his prime, nor is the Packers offensive line, so he'll definitely be an inefficient player. Recent bell cows D'Andre Swift (RB13) and Braelon Allen (RB19) were just fine.

Jacobs faces a stingy Patriots defense despite elite usage; efficiency concerns loom.

The Patriots rank 26th in half PPR points allowed to opposing running backs, giving up just 17.0 points per game to the position (true the year prior as well). Recent bell cows D'Andre Swift (RB13) and Braelon Allen (RB19) were just fine against New England. On tape, Jacobs is not in his prime, nor is the Packers offensive line, so he'll definitely be an inefficient player. Green Bay heads on the road as 3-point road underdogs with an implied team total of 22.25 points (17th).
