Alfred Blue, Jonathan Grimes' Instant Fantasy Reaction After Week 12
That week where Alfred Blue was a fantasy monster was fun. The Houston Texans running back struggled to recapture his Week 11 form in a 22-13 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
Blue's performance was disappointing after last week's 156-yard outburst.
| Carries | Yards | Avg. | TD | --- |
| 16 | 46 | 2.9 | 0 | --- |
| Receptions | Targets | Yards | Avg. | TD |
| 3 | 4 | 20 | 6.7 | 0 |
The Bengals did a great job of stopping him at the line of scrimmage. Few could've seen this coming, because Cincinnati has been dreadful against the run this year:
Blue is worth keeping around as long as Arian Foster's status remains in doubt. At the very least, he can be a handcuff for Foster. When Foster doesn't play, Blue can be a good RB2 or flex option. Last week is evidence that he can go off for a huge day.
Jonathan Grimes also had a big game last week, but he was even worse on Sunday.
| Carries | Yards | Avg. | TD | --- |
| 2 | 16 | 8.0 | 0 | --- |
| Receptions | Targets | Yards | Avg. | TD |
| 3 | 4 | 32 | 10.7 | 0 |
Unless both Foster and Blue go down, Grimes isn't a viable fantasy option except in extremely deep leagues. There's no way he'll be able to get enough touches to give you much from one week to the next.
