FWP 100+ yards rushing in 3 HOME games. :thumbup:

FWP 57 yards or less in 3 ROAD games. :thumbdown:

Just found this interesting....

 
The team is 2-1 at home and 0-3 on the road. And, that one loss at home, they were leading going into the 4th quarter. Pittsburgh likes to run. They REALLY like to run late in the game when they have a lead. If you think they're going to lose games on the road, as they've done so far, then I'd say it's a trend.

Plus the fact that the three teams they have played on the road all have better run Ds then the three teams they played a home.
 
I'd predict a low-scoring game but many rushing attempts for FWP.25-80-1.
Rushing prediction is probably close...but FWP will be getting more involved in the passing game now that Hayes is gone for the season. He caught a 25 yrd. TD pass last week, which is only the beginning I think. I look for an additional 3/35/1 in the passing game this weekend as PIT tries to get FWP in open space.
 
I don't think Denver has allowed a rushing TD yet this year, and they've faced better RB's than FWP (SJax & LJ to name two).

I wouldn't count on him scoring, but 80 yds sounds about right.

 
As an FWP owner, I am confident starting him at home vs any opponent. The Steelers can run on anyone at home.

If this game was in Denver, maybe I'd think twice... and still start him.
