Prediction #1. Damien Harris has a huge week

In years past, the New England Patriots would have given up on Damien Harris. He’s fumbled twice in huge situations, including once as he was walking into the end zone which almost ended in a loss against the Houston Texans. However, this seems to be a different Bill Belichick team. Harris was given more chances to take the starting running back role, and he’s thrived now that he has his legs under him.

Harris had his best game against the Dallas Cowboys. He ran for 101 yards and a touchdown while also adding a catch for seven yards. He’s starting to heat up, and he seems to be getting better each week.

Next week, he’s facing the New York Jets. The Jets allow the most running back points in fantasy of any team. RBs are getting 32 points per game in standard leagues. They’ve allowed six touchdowns, and Harris is going to put two on the division rival.

Mac Jones is going to have a better week overall keeping the football, which will give Harris plenty of red zone opportunities. Expect him to have one of the best games of his career against the Jets as the Patriots look to bounce back from a last-second loss to the Cowboys.
