Adrian Peterson In Line For Another Solid Outing
6 years agoWashington Redskins running back Adrian Peterson will look to carry his early-season success into a contest with a Falcons defense that has been exploited all year. Only the Chiefs have surrendered more fantasy points per game to opposing running backs than the Falcons. Atlanta has given up at least 70 rushing yards in six of seven games, and has allowed multiple touchdowns to running backs on three different occasions. The Falcons are a relatively high-scoring team, so the Redskins may not be able to completely dictate pace of play the way Peterson's investors have gotten used to over the last few weeks. We shouldn't expect that to devalue him, however, as he still figures to receive an RB2 workload at worst.
