From the article

Through the first six weeks, Pollard had logged just 4.0 yards per carry, scored just one touchdown and averaged 0.47 points per opportunity, dead last among qualified players. Can we really trust that drastic of a two-week breakout for the 29-year-old running back in the Titans offense? I'm hesitant ... especially this week against Jacksonville.

Pollard's two-week hot streak is unsustainable; expect regression against tough Jaguars.

Pollard posted 62.2 fantasy points in his last two games (Weeks 7-8) against the Browns and Bengals, averaging 5.4 yards per carry and scoring five touchdowns for 1.15 fantasy points per opportunity. However, through the first six weeks he logged just 4.0 yards per carry, one touchdown, and 0.47 points per opportunity—dead last among qualified players. The source is hesitant to trust this drastic two-week breakout for the 29-year-old in the Titans offense, especially against Jacksonville, which allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs (15.3) with just 68.3 rushing yards per game and four touchdowns in eight games before strengthening their defense with Jordan Davis, Davon Godchaux, and Jessie Bates III. Tennessee is tied for second-lowest implied total this week.
