Raiders rusher Darren McFadden will play at the Broncos in Week 3. Does it mean he'll do well after two straight strong weeks to begin the season?
We'd bet against it. Denver is allowing just 2.0 yards per carry to running backs though they have been susceptible to running backs as receivers, allowing two receiving scores to the position.
That's how McFadden scored on the Broncos in their last meeting, but the rest of his stats were pretty soft. McFadden had a 150-rush-yard game at Denver in 2011 but totaled 102 yards in two meetings in 2012.
McFadden's going to need that touchdown to be beneficial to Fantasy owners. We'd ride him as a No. 2 running back but that's about it.
