Chase Brown, RB, Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals got to try out their new starting quarterback against the Green Bay Packers in Week 6. Joe Flacco performed well, throwing for 219 yards and two scores in the 27-18 defeat.
However, things didn’t improve for Chase Brown, who recorded his third-fewest fantasy points of the season. Brown only carried the ball nine times for 42 yards and was targeted just twice, with teammate Samaje Perine handling a late two-minute drill.
However, heading into Sunday’s games, the Packers had allowed the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs this season. In fact, four of Brown’s six opponents so far were top-11 defenses against running backs in fantasy, heading into Sunday.
Looking forward, eight of the Bengals’ remaining 10 games (until Week 17) are against teams that were bottom-12 in that category. It didn’t work out at the first attempt, but Flacco’s arrival is great news for the Bengals in fantasy, and Brown’s schedule is about to lighten up.
Chuba Hubbard, RB, Carolina Panthers
Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard has become a forgotten man in fantasy, with Rico Dowdle putting up huge numbers in his absence. Hubbard has missed two games with a calf problem, and there is no guarantee he’ll be back for Week 7.
Typically, a returning starter would spell the end for his backup’s perceived fantasy value, but Dowdle’s eye-catching numbers have cast doubt over Hubbard’s future. Current owners would have been happy to hold onto Hubbard after his impressive start to the season, but they will now be worried about the value of their injured star.

While Dowdle has earned himself more work than he had previously, Hubbard remains a valuable part of the Panthers’ offense. The Panthers signed Hubbard to a new deal last season, and he will return to a 1A-1B situation at worst when healthy.
One disappointing performance from Dowdle would see Hubbard’s value shoot back up, so it’s worth capitalizing on the panic if possible this week.
