Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on David Montgomery
STACKED’s take
RB22/RB34; capped at 10 carries per game, limited goal-line work
David Montgomery is ranked RB22 against the Dallas Cowboys. The Texans running backs rank dead last in yards per carry at 2.8 (vs. 31st-ranked Browns at 3.2), showing significant offensive inefficiency. The Cowboys allow north of 500 rushing yards this season (tied with Panthers as only two defenses allowing that much), creating a matchup of stoppable force meeting movable object. Woody Marks is a goal-line threat, not pass-down only back, which limits Montgomery's touchdown upside despite favorable run defense matchup. Additionally, Montgomery has exactly 10 rush attempts in every game, making it tough to rank him higher; he's not even getting force-fed the ball near the goal line. Ian Hartitz also notes the Bears probably aren't expecting to score nearly 30 points per week with Case Keenum under center, though they did score 30 on Monday night. Ranked RB34.
