Week 8 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Delone Carter and More RBs That Must Start

Colts rookie running back Delone Carter is set to have his first big week of the season as he takes on a reeling Titans defense.

He isn't the only running back that will surprise this Sunday (due to their lack of production thus far this Sunday).

Here is a breakdown of Carter and two others.

Indianapolis Colts RB Delone Carter

Week 8 Opponent: Tennessee Titans

Delone Carter will likely be starting for Joseph Addai this week; though you'll certainly want to check on this as the game nears. However, if he does start, then he should be set to have a good game.

The Titans defense is getting worse each week, and they were shredded like they weren't even trying last week versus Houston, as Arian Foster ran all over them.

While Carter and the Colts run game is nowhere near the Texans, Carter should still have plenty of opportunities to produce.

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jackie Battle

Week 8 Opponent: San Diego Chargers

After two straight weeks of leading the Chiefs in carries, there is little doubt that Jackie Battle is going to be the lead-back in Kansas City.

Last week, he had over twice as many carries as Thomas Jones, with 19, and was far more productive with his opportunities.

This week he will be taking on a Chargers defense struggling to stop the run. The Chargers are 21st in the NFL, allowing 122 rushing yards per game.

Denver Broncos RB Knowshon Moreno

Week 8 Opponent: Detroit Lions

Knowshon Moreno will likely get a chance to start again, as Willis McGahee recuperates from a broken hand.

Moreno is facing a good opponent to get his season on track, as the Lions are 28th in the NFL in rushing yards allowed.

He should get plenty of touches in this one as the Broncos try to limit Tim Tebow's exposure in the pass game.
