Barkley's three-game sub-10 PPR streak vs. Rams' eighth-ranked run defense

Saquon Barkley has been held under 10 fantasy points in three consecutive games for the first time in his career and has yet to surpass 15 rushing attempts in a game. Against the Rams in Week 4, this is a concerning trend: the Rams' defensive front ranks eighth in run stop win rate. However, Barkley did enjoy success against Chicago on Monday night before the game got out of hand, potentially signaling a schematic breakthrough under new OC Sean Mannion. Historically, Barkley dominated the Rams in previous matchups, piling up 534 scrimmage yards across two games, but was held to just 55 total yards on 22 touches in last season's loss at Lincoln Financial Field.
