STACKED’s take

NeutralValue

Pollard ranked RB18-22; faces tough Cincinnati run defense.

Pollard is ranked RB19 and RB18 in consensus ECR, with the source ranking him at RB22. Cincinnati is the third-toughest defense against the run, while the Patriots are 23rd (closer to middle of the pack). The matchup analysis suggests Pollard faces a tougher run defense in Cincinnati compared to Gordon's Patriots matchup, though the difference is only about a point per game.
