I didn't get a chance to watch any games last night, but was checking on my phone. It seemed like he was on his way to a nice day having 50/1TD at the half I think. Checked later and his number went down after a fumble, ending with 9.9 points. Was he pulled after they went up? With Pittsburgh winning 35-3, I'd have thought they'd be running left and right.

He has now up two relative stinkers in a row. I know they are spelling him a lot; is Arians just NOT calling running plays? Is he a liability in FF lineups going forward? Buffalo, Cincy, Carolina all seem like pretty juicy matchups, but with meh performances recently I am nervous.

Any homers have thoughts about this?

He had 23 carries yesterday just not being productive with them in large part b/c of the o-line. He gets the start vs Buffalo next week and goes to my bench if he doesn't produce then.

Plus the Steelers were well in control of this game from halftime on. I know they are concerned about his touches and taking more punishment. It was the perfect opportunity to lessen his load and pull him back a bit. His O line is certainly not helping him when he is in there though. I'd start him with confidence against Buffalo.
