Should You Start or Sit Chase Brown in Week 13?
Brown has three straight top-10 finishes, a streak not amassed by Alvin Kamara, Breece Hall, Jahmyr Gibbs, or De’Von Achane this season. He’s been nothing short of special, and there’s really no reason to think we will see that change any time soon.
Brown has at least five receptions in three consecutive games (82 touches with 16 coming in the red zone over that stretch) and has ripped off a 20-yard carry in four of his past six contests. The efficiency on the ground hasn’t been there lately (last five games: 3.6 yards per carry), but as a focal point of this elite offense, there’s no reason to nitpick.
