Fantasy Football Week 8 Rankings for RBs (Half-PPR)
For all of the struggles we saw at the quarterback position in Week 7, the running backs made up for it 10-fold ... or, perhaps, 11-fold, as 11 different RBs managed to score 20 or more fantasy points last week! Tough sledding for the "running backs don't matter" crowd, eh?
Among those top performers was Philadelphia Eagles star RB Saquon Barkley, who had a statement revenge game against his former team, the New York Giants. He managed 176 yards on the ground for the second-highest single-game rushing yard total of his career, earning 25.7 fantasy points on the day.
