NFL Week 11 Predictions: Projecting Fantasy Studs Guaranteed to Bomb
There's a reason why fantasy studs are dubbed as such—performing at a high level on a consistent basis earns them the right to be categorized accordingly.
That being said, every stud has a slip up once in a while. This week, this will happen to three such players.
Oddly enough, they're all running backs.

Projecting Every NFL Team's Starting Lineup 🔮

Rookie WRs Who Will Outplay Their Draft Value 📈
Fred Jackson: RB, Bills (at Dolphins)
As bad as the Dolphins were during their seven-game losing streak, Miami's defense had allowed only 23 points per game and is actually under 20 for the entire year.
Buffalo's offense still has the ability to put up points. However, against respectable defenses, they've struggled. Especially on the road.
This week, Buffalo plays at Miami, who also has the 10th-ranked rush defense. Stopping Fred Jackson is the key to shutting down the Bills. Holding him in check, just as the Jets and Cowboys did, is required at the very least.
That said, it will be fortunate if Jackson hits his projections as Miami will be keying him all game.
Ray Rice: RB, Ravens (vs. Bengals)
It's almost hard to believe, but the Ravens rank No. 22 in rush offense. They are averaging under 100 yards per game. On the contrary, Cincinnati ranks No. 2 in rush defense and allows just 86 rushing yards per game.
With that in mind, Baltimore RB Ray Rice won't be productive at all this week as the Bengals front seven seek to isolate him as much as possible. While that will obviously leave them vulnerable to the pass, Cincinnati gives themselves better odds to win if Rice doesn't produce.
The more Rice gains, the more versatile and dynamic Baltimore's offense becomes.
Michael Bush: RB, Raiders (at Vikings)
Raiders RB Michael Bush isn't going to have a great game for a variety of reasons. For one, while the Vikings defense ranks No. 6 against the run, they are No. 30 against the pass.
Therefore, not only will it be difficult for Bush to pound the rock when given the opportunity, but Oakland will limit his carries. Why run the ball against Minnesota when you can shred them in the passing game?
This is the perfect game for Carson Palmer to get a bunch of confidence back as well as gain chemistry and timing with his WRs. Bush doesn't produce, but only because the Raiders win by aerial assault.
