Week 11 Fantasy Football Projections: Reggie Bush and More RBs You Need to Start

Josh MartinNov 20, 2011

Can you smell what's cooking in fantasy football this week? The Rock certainly can, what with his return to wrestling with the WWE Survivor Series alongside John Cena after a seven-year sabbatical in Hollywood.

But I digress. There's plenty of action on tap for running backs in the NFL on Sunday, with these three mid-level ball carriers bound for big numbers...if you can dig it.

Well, can you?

Reggie Bush, Miami Dolphins

Kim Kardashian's split from Kris Humphries seems to have reinvigorated her former boo. Could Keggim be back in the tabloid business? Tough to say.

Not as tough to say, though, is that Reggie is ready for a big day against the Bills. He's picked up three touchdowns and averaged better than 80 total yards per game over his last three, and figures to continue that torrid pace against a Buffalo defense that's surrendered 136 yards per game and 11 touchdowns to opposing running backs this season.

Michael Bush, Oakland Raiders

As for the other "Bush League" runner in the NFL today, Big Michael is due for an even bigger day than his South Florida namesake.

Not because Minnesota's defense is any more pliable than Buffalo's, but rather because the 6'1", 245-pounder is an absolute load on the ground. Bush is averaging better than 160 total yards per game in his last three, during which time he's also made his way to the end zone twice. With Darren McFadden still sidelined by a sprained foot, look for Bush to get plenty of carries and short passes from Carson Palmer to keep the Raiders in the playoff hunt and your team on track for a solid spot in your league.

Marshawn Lynch, Seattle Seahawks

The man known to many NFL fans as "Shrek" is ready, willing and able to wreck the Rams' bottom-of-the-barrel run defense on Sunday. Lynch has made hay against two of the league's better defenses in Dallas and Baltimore over the last two weeks, racking up 143 total yards on the Cowboys and another 167 on the Ravens. What's more, Marshawn has found his way into the end zone in each of his last five games.

Look for him to do plenty of both in St. Louis on Sunday.
