Marshawn Lynch, Robert Turbin, Christine Michael's Post-Week 13 Fantasy Reaction

R. Cory SmithNov 27, 2014

Marshawn Lynch has a history of shredding the San Francisco 49ers. Thanksgiving night was no exception for the Seattle Seahawks' lead back.

With Lynch getting most of the carries, both Robert Turbin and Christine Michael have made a difference in the passing game. In fact, Turbin outperformed in fantasy Lynch with a touchdown pass from Russell Wilson.

Lynch was stymied early, but broke out in the second half to eclipse 100 yards. Though he was underwhelming against the Arizona Cardinals, Lynch will continue to look like a RB1 in the first matchup of the fantasy playoffs.

Outside of Beast Mode, Turbin was the second-leading receiver for Wilson in the first half. Michael also came away with a reception, but ESPN Fantasy Sports notes how the Turbin score left Lynch owners feeling: 

Look for Lynch to shine again in Week 14 against a Philadelphia Eagles defense that allows a ton of points to tailbacks. Over the last four weeks, Philly has surrendered an average of 19.65 points to Lynch.

Since Lynch is essentially the entire running corps for the Seahawks, he will exploit the Eagles for a huge point total. Given the importance of Week 14 for most owners, having Lynch thrive will be crucial. Meanwhile, Turbin and Michael are still not worth owning despite Turbin's breakout game.
