Le'Veon Bell, LeGarrette Blount's Instant Fantasy Reaction After Week 6

Even when Le'Veon Bell can't break open a massive run or find the end zone, he routinely delivers substantive fantasy performances. That's the marking of a true star.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers mounting a sizable 21-3 deficit early against the Cleveland Browns, Bell has sewed together enough yards to appease his fantasy owners.      

Player	Rushes	Rush YDs	YPC	Rec.	Rec. YDs	TDs
Le'Veon Bell	18	82	4.6	4	23	0
LaGarrette Blount	8	27	3.4	0	0	0

One of the few stud fantasy running backs left standing, Bell extended his streak of generating at least 100 total yards in every game with 105 on Sunday. Per NFL on ESPN, only DeMarco Murray gained more yards from scrimmage through the first five weeks:

Bell's 18 carries are nothing to sneeze at in a league no longer revolved around a one-back system. Yet he explained his natural desire to keep getting the ball to NFL.com's Dan Hanzus.

"The more you get the rock, the better it will get for you."

Bell is a must-start through thick and thin. If he maintains this level of play, he'll vie for status as a top-five pick in 2015 drafts.

Outside of LeGarrette Blount's 118-yard outburst against the Tennessee Titans, he has churned out 112 total yards throughout the other four games. He simply doesn't get brandished with another touches to make a consistent impact, limiting him to little more than Bell's handcuff.
