NFL Week 9 Predictions: 5 RBs Guaranteed to Collect 100-Plus Rushing Yards

Last week, six running backs rushed for over 100 yards in Fred Jackson, Steven Jackson, Frank Gore, Reggie Bush, Arian Foster and LeSean McCoy. 

Five of those six runners' teams were victorious. 

Not totally surprising.  

We'll see around the same number of backs reaching that plateau this weekend... 

Michael Turner

This one's easy. The Falcons win when Turner gets the ball. He averages over 25 carries in Atlanta's four victories. 

Against a winless Dolphins team on the road, why wouldn't they do more of the same?

Definitely over 100 yards for Burner Turner, who has the most massive running back thighs in the NFL right now.

Arian Foster

With Andre Johnson likely back in the lineup, the Browns will have to be respect the passing game.

That will come as great news for Foster. He followed up his monstrous performance against the Titans with another 100-yard rushing game against a stout Jaguars run defense last week. 

He'll break a few long ones and get to 100.

Frank Gore

Fred Jackson went for 120 last week against Washington.

San Francisco, who relies more on their running game than Buffalo, will pound Gore all afternoon in the nation's capital. 

Kendall Hunter will take a few carries away, but that won't stop this versatile runner from accumulating 100 yards on the ground.

LeSean McCoy

With his tackling-shaking ability and the way in which the Eagles get him the ball in space, I envision McCoy going on a 100-yard rushing streak. How can he not get to 100 in every game?

He's so fast, quick and extremely slippery. Plus, every defense is kept honest by Mike Vick and those ridiculously athletic, talented wideouts.

Fred Jackson

This one's going to be close. Due to the Jets' stifling secondary, I expect Chan Gailey to tailor his game plan around running the football with Jackson.

New York's run defense has been hot and cold this season.

The Bills offensive line usually creates some gaping holes for their talented runner and he is tremendous at eluding tacklers and creating more room for himself to gain extra yardage. 

I definitely believe Jackson will go over 100 total yards in this one, as he plays a major role in the passing game as well.
