1. Doug Martin (Tampa Bay Buccaneers)

[Opponent- New Orleans Saints]: Martin is coming up against a Saints team that could not stop the run to save their lives. The only problem with this matchup is that what if the Saints or Buccaneers are too good? Slightly humorous yes but if the Saints overpower the Bucs with their offensive strikes the Buccaneers might have to abandon the run early.

2. Chris Ivory (New York Jets)

[Opponent-Indianapolis Colts]: Ivory had an insane week 1 and is going up against a Colts defense that has trouble in all phases. Ivory finished with 91 yards and 2 touchdowns along with a couple of receiving yards. The Colts defensive line is a lot less imposing than the Browns and Ivory will have many holes to run through.

3. Justin Forsett (Baltimore Ravens)

[Opponent: Oakland Raiders]: Forsett will be playing the Raiders after playing a stingy Broncos run defense. Forsett averaged 3.1 yards and finished the game with 14 carries for 43 yards and no touchdowns however this week he gets to play the Raiders. The Raiders let the duo of Jeremy Hill and Giovani Bernard run all over them for 126 carries and 2 touchdowns. This rate of production should be even better for Ivory because he will be the main running back in this offense.

4. Joseph Randle/Lance Dunbar (Dallas Cowboys)

[Opponent: Philadelphia Eagles]: Randle will get the majority of carries behind the best offensive line in the league. Joseph Randle will likely look to prove a point against the Philadelphia Eagles and DeMarco Murray; and so will the Cowboys. Randle got the majority of carries playing second fiddle to no one. Randle now as a solidified starter will have better opportunities than he did last week. Dunbar is meshed in this list because he by definition is a running back however he only plays third downs and is an explosive pass catcher, if Randle is not getting it done on the ground, Dunbar will do it through the air.

5. Tevin Coleman (Atlanta Falcons)

[Opponent: New York Giants]: Coleman averaged 4.0 yards per carry on Monday's game versus the Eagles which absolutely dwarfed the output of Devonta Freeman (1.8 YPC). Coleman looks like a great, physical running back, who will be able to move the chains even behind Atlanta's mediocre offensive line. In week 2 against the Giants he is an RB2 with RB1 upside, the Giants cannot stop the run no matter how many bodies they throw at a running back.
