Fantasy Football Week 6: Running Backs That Will Continue to Run Wild

Frank FittipaldiOct 13, 2010

1. Frank Gore

Week 6 Opponent: Oakland Raiders

Frank Gore and the 49ers head into Week 6 ready to take on the Oakland Raiders. Gore only has one 100-yard game this year, so he is looking forward to this one. The Raiders rank 31st against the run, allowing almost 150 yards per game. The Niners are 0-5, so if they want a win, they will put it in Frank Gore's hands.

Prediction: 27 carries, 135 yards, one touchdown

2. Ahmad Bradshaw

Week 6 Opponent: Detroit Lions

The Detroit Lions give up over 130 yards on the ground per game, so Giants' running back Ahmad Bradshaw will look to capitalize. Bradshaw had an off week against Houston, so No. 44 is determined to bounce back in Week 6. This is a great matchup for Bradshaw, and he will not disappoint fantasy owners.

Prediction: 21 carries, 117 yards, one touchdown

3. Michael Turner

Week 6 Opponent: Philadelphia Eagles

Michael Turner is sixth in the NFL in rushing and is coming off a big week against the Browns, where he carried the ball 19 times for 140 yards. Turner's success will continue against the Eagles defense, which ranks 24th against the run. The Eagles have struggled to stop opposing backs, and they will continue to struggle against Turner and the Falcons.

Prediction: 24 carries, 122 yards, one touchdown

4. Rashard Mendenhall

Week 6 Opponent: Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are weak against the run, and Steelers' running back Rashard Mendenhall will not make things any easier for them this Sunday. Sunday will be Ben Roethlisberger's first game back, so head coach Mike Tomlin might want to keep the pressure off Big Ben and stick to the ground game. Look for Mendenhall to have a big day.

Prediction: 25 carries, 110 yards, one touchdown

5. Ray Rice

Week 6 Opponent: New England Patriots

The Patriots' defense has struggled through the first five weeks of the season, and things will not turn around this Sunday against Ray Rice and the Ravens. Rice is coming off his best game this past Sunday against the Broncos. No. 27 carried the ball 27 times for 133 yards and two scores. Rice will feed off his best game and carry it over against New England. Keep him in your starting lineup.

Prediction: 26 carries, 128 yards, one touchdown
