RB Duds

Eddie Lacy-Green Bay Packers: Lacy had another disastrous game and sustained another injury as the Packers lost in Carolina.  He lost a fumble and only managed ten yards on his five carries.  Depending on how your league scores fumbles, Lacy very well could have actually been worse than leaving the spot empty this week.

Ronnie Hillman-Denver Broncos: After looking like they had figured out their running game last week against Green Bay, the Broncos couldn’t get anything going against the Colts.  Hillman ran the ball seven times and totaled exactly one yard.

Doug Martin-Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Martin has come back to earth after a nice run in weeks 4-7.  The Giants totally shut him down this week holding him to just 31 yards on his 11 carries.

Matt Jones-Washington Redskins: Jones has struggled since his early-season breakout.  He is still getting work, but struggled to get anything going on Sunday against New England.  Jones had 11 carries but only managed 27 yards while adding 17 yards on two catches.  To make matters worse, Jones lost a fumble to undo most of the scoring he had put together.
