Nick Chubb, Cleveland Browns

Stats: 579 rushing yards, 5 touchdowns, 48 receiving yards, 1 touchdown

Nick Chubb has taken complete control of the Browns backfield since the departure of Carlos Hyde. In Week 10 before the bye, Chubb gashed the Falcons defense, rushing for 176 yards and a touchdown, adding 33 receiving yards and another score. With the last-ranked Cincinnati Bengals up next, Chubb has an amazing opportunity to repeat his Week 10 performance.

Playing with fellow rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield, this dynamic duo has the abilities and opportunity to reset the Browns recent woes on the field. If Chubb can keep even half the pace of his current 18-to-25 attempts, 65 rushing yards per game average since Week 7, we might be witnessing something truly special in the works.

Chubb is averaging 101.5 rushing yards per game since Week 7. This upcoming matchup should boast ample opportunity as the Bengals are allowing a league worst 153 rushing yards per game. Chubb is the perfect back to feature on Turkey week. He has also proven he can be a decent pass catching back. Chubb has caught six balls for 48 yards and a score this season.

Prediction: 110 rushing yards, 50 receiving yards, 2 total touchdowns
