From the article

Jacobs has had an insanely hot start to his 2026 campaign - through two games, he is averaging 21.6 fantasy points, good for RB3 this year. Obviously, this is a small sample, and I expect this number to come down quite a bit - I wouldn't be surprised to see some regression this week.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Jacobs faces regression risk in Week 9 against Patriots' elite run defense.

Alex Cupps ranks Jacobs RB17 for Week 9, -4 below Fantasy Life consensus (RB13). Despite averaging 21.6 fantasy points through two games (RB3 pace), Cupps expects regression this week. The Packers face the Patriots, 3rd in DvP against RBs (-4 ppg). Prediction markets project 13.1 points (RB13) and Vegas base is 8.6 points (RB18). Cupps is tempering expectations on Jacobs despite his hot start.
