There are going to be plenty of fantasy points to be had in the final two games of Week 4. So, if you are heading into these games trailing, and you have any of the following three players on your roster, fear not.
Baltimore Ravens' RB Ray Rice
Last week, Darren McFadden obliterated any fear of starting running backs against the New York Jets' defense. Ray Rice is a must start, and he is going to produce.
The Ravens have a similar physical offensive line to the Oakland Raiders. They are going to open up rushing lanes for Rice.
Even if the Jets do manage to cut off the running lanes, Rice can do damage in the passing game. He has 14 catches on the season for 178 yards and two touchdowns.
New York Jets' QB Mark Sanchez
The Ravens have the sixth ranked rush defense. The Jets have the 25th ranked rush offense. The Jets will be throwing plenty in this contest.
The Jets are 10th in the NFL in passing yards. Mark Sanchez has plenty of weapons to throw to and he will be going against a very average Ravens secondary. The Ravens are ranked 17th against the pass.
They also don't have the corners to match up with the Jets' wide receivers.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers' RB LaGarrette Blount
Blount is getting better with every start. He had 15 yards his first game, 71 the next and 81 last game.
Those numbers will assuredly keep progressing up this week. Blount and the Buccaneers will be taking on a weak Colts rush defense.
The Colts are giving up 113 yards rushing per game. This has them ranked 22nd in the NFL. The Buccaneers will exploit this matchup.
They will also likely have a lead in this game and plenty of time to run the ball.
