Ravens running back Bernard Pierce might just be one of the best Fantasy starts of the week heading into Week 4's meeting with the Bills in Buffalo. That is because there is a decent chance that Ray Rice misses another game after sitting out last week due to his hip injury.
First of all, Pierce's matchup against the Bills is a favorable one. The Bills allowed 149 rushing yards last week to New York's Bilal Powell. They gave up 101 yards on 14 carries Week 1 to Shane Vereen. Even DeAngelo Williams neared 100 yards with 85 against them Week 2. That said, the Bills have yet to allow a rushing touchdown on the season. That said, no team has allowed more rushing yards.
Pierce started for Rice last week and wasn't phenomenal. He had 24 carries and went for 65 yards, though he did score a touchdown. Pierce has scored in consecutive games and will look to make it three straight Week 4 in Buffalo. If Rice is active, Pierce is still worth starting in most Fantasy formats. If not, Pierce becomes a must-start Fantasy RB.
