Dowdle is one of just 11 RBs with 1,300+ scrimmage yards in each of the past two seasons, and he's also the only one of the cohort to accomplish this feat on two different teams. Here he is now on a new team once again, but this time he's reunited with former Cowboys HC and current Steelers HC Mike McCarthy, who might just prefer his former workhorse to incumbent starter Jaylen Warren.

Dowdle's dual-team 1,300-yard streak and McCarthy reunion position him as a Week 1 favorite.

Dowdle is one of just 11 RBs with 1,300+ scrimmage yards in each of the past two seasons, and the only one of that cohort to accomplish this feat on two different teams. Now reunited with former Cowboys HC and current Steelers HC Mike McCarthy, who may prefer his former workhorse to incumbent starter Jaylen Warren. McCarthy has a strong home-favorite record (70-49-4 ATS, 14.3% ROI) and Week 1 record (11-7 ATS, 19.7% ROI), and the Steelers have maximized home-field advantage against the Falcons in this spot.
