RB Jonathan Taylor, IND (4 Viewers)

[TartanLion]

Never owned him in either of my dynasty leagues or my one home town re-draft league, but it’s impossible not to just marvel at how consistent this guy is at racking up yards and TDs. Unstoppable right now it feels like. Over 47 points. A Kamara game from a few years back, and a Jamaal Charles one even longer ago come to mind

I had Portis on a team the year he had 5 TDs in a game, think he scored 52 in standard. Also Shaun Alexander one year, maybe 2006. I thought this kind of RB scoring had gone the way of the dodo outside of McCaffrey or Gibbs occasionally blowing the doors off. 46pts is extraordinary.

It is a shame the MVP goes to a qb almost every year, because he should be the odds on favorite right now., especially since no qb is having an MVP type of year.

Dropping that ball before scoring late last year really lit a fire under him he’s been unreal ever since

2020 - Kamara 54.7 points 22/155/6 TDs!! on the ground was one of the ones I was thinking about. He didn’t even do much through the air that day. Came in a dead rubber for me as I’d been knocked out of the semi the week before

2013 - Charles 8/20/1 on the ground 8/195/4 through the air easily to the tune of over 50 points as well Id imagine.

Wasn’t there a Darren McFadden game vs Denver also? For some reason I feel like there was some insane week where a lot of people had him on the bench because he was a gtd (shocker).

Jonathan Taylor’s Berlin masterpiece cements him in Colts lore — and thrusts him into the MVP race

Stay positive. At least he can't get hurt. Ha ha. Get your rest buddy, we got fantasy playoffs coming up.

I said this in the game thread Sunday, but we really were robbed of his greatness the previous 3 years because of nagging injuries and a contract dispute. I wish I hadn't of sold him in a couple of leagues the last few years although I did acquire him in another league this past offseason.

I recall some arguing that the Colts should have not resigned Taylor and just rolled with Zach Moss and they wouldn't have missed a beat. And even as early as this offseason someone saying the Colts might consider trading Taylor this year if the year went badly...
