Week 15 Rankings: RBs

Guess what? This week's Monday night game is in Tennessee. Not only that, but the Jets are visiting. The world really may be ending soon.

UPDATED: Ahmad Bradshaw (NYG) has been ruled OUT. David Wilson has been moved up.

Rank	Runningback	Opp	Comments
1	Jamaal Charles	@OAK	They finally started using him and, would you look at that. He's destroying everyone.
2	Adrian Peterson	@STL	Mediocre defense is no match for this godly monster.
3	Doug Martin	@NO	I feel bad for any Martin owners who didn't make the playoffs because this is an incredible matchup.
4	Arian Foster	IND	Quietly still the #2 RB in standard scoring leagues. Start him as you do every week.
5	Chris Johnson	NYJ	Hard to trust him against great matchups, but it's a great matchup. Do with him as you please.
6	Matt Forte	GB	Had one of those all-purpose Forte games last week and the Packers give up more than you'd think.
7	Marshawn Lynch	@BUF	A chance to embarrass his old team? Yes, please.
8	Alfred Morris	@CLE	The biggest fantasy steal of the 2012-2013 NFL season.
9	Ray Rice	DEN	Denver's been great against RBs but come on. It's Ray Rice.
10	BenJarvus Green-Ellis	@PHI	Thursday games haven't exactly been pass-friendly so maybe BJGE gets some extra work.
11	Frank Gore	@NE	Can't sit him against anyone thanks to that offensive line and rush-heavy gameplan.
12	Trent Richardson	WSH	The Redskins are far more passer-friendly but he's a beast so success wouldn't be shocking.
13	Shonn Greene	@TEN	It's all about matchups, baby.
14	Steven Jackson	MIN	He's been on a literal tear lately, and Richardson is vulturing fewer carries.
15	David Wilson	@ATL	With Bradshaw out, Wilson has no vulture threat and the Falcons give up the eighth-most points to RBs.
16	Ryan Mathews	CAR	Struggling but the Panthers allow the most receiving yards and the sixth-most points to RBs.
17	Darren McFadden	KC	If he starts, it's about as good a matchup as he's going to get.
18	DeMarco Murray	PIT	He starts against anyone no matter what. He just likes running into people.
19	Stevan Ridley	SF	He may score but can't expect the yards to be there.
20	Reggie Bush	JAC	Tough to envision him magically getting back into a groove.
21	Knowshon Moreno	@BAL	Don't expect the same workload he got last week (36 touches) but expect a similar production.
22	Darren Sproles	TB	His explosiveness and big-play ability make him to dangerous
23	Mikel Leshoure	@ARI	He may be losing snaps to Bell but he still has three scores in the last four games.
24	Bryce Brown	CIN	I'm not loving the matchup but he's the guy for Philly and Thursday games are typically run-friendly.
25	Michael Turner	NYG	Redzone action is enough to start him but it's tough to ignore Rodgers's increased involvement.
26	Jonathan Dwyer	@DAL	Not the best matchup but the backfield situation is starting to get some sort of clarity.
27	Montell Owens	@MIA	Almost eclipsed 100 yards on only 14 carries so while it's a tougher matchup, he could be a nice play.
28	Jacquizz Rodgers	NYG	Expect J-Rod to see the same sort of success Darren Sproles did against them last week.
29	CJ Spiller	SEA	Good luck.
30	Vick Ballard	@HOU	See above.
31	DeAngelo Williams	@SD	Newton's the first-option runner and the Chargers allow the fourth-fewest yards per game to RBs.
32	Beanie Wells	DET	Wells is an up-the-middle back and the Lions have one of the best run-stopping D-lines in the league.
33	Isaac Redman	@DAL	No Mendenhall certainly gives him a boost but he's still second fiddle to Dwyer.
34	Joique Bell	@ARI	Ended up with more total touches than Leshoure last week but outside of PPR, he's still hit-or-miss.
35	Mark Ingram	TB	Leading the backfield in carries but not in snap count, tough to tell.
36	Marcel Reece	KC	This goes way, way up if McFadden can't go.
37	Mike Goodson	KC	See above.
38	Pierre Thomas	TB	Too inconsistent to trust and this very well could turn into a shootout.
39	Alex Green	@CHI	He's the starter with no clear-cut threat to his carries, but he's just not that good.
40	Daryl Richardson	MIN	Three carries in each of the Rams' last two games. With SJax's performance, he'll sit more.
41	Michael Bush	GB	Ailing ribs don't tend to bode well for second-string power backs.
42	Peyton Hillis	@OAK	Can't expect a whole lot but there's always the chance he gets a redzone carry or two.
43	Justin Forsett	IND	Superb matchup so just hope he makes the most of his carries.
44	Robert Turbin	@BUF	If Lynch goes into literal Beastmode again, Turbin may offer an entire half of relief.
45	Danny Woodhead	SF	Sure it's a tough defense, but this guy's a wild card.
46	Tashard Choice	SEA	With Freddy Jax out for the year, Choice will see a major bump in workload.
47	Bilal Powell	@TEN	He may be getting a solid share but Greene's still the starter.
48	Dexter McCluster	@OAK	No Bowe might actually allow him to see some action.
49	LaMichael James	@NE	Eight carries last week and he should see more this week with Jacobs away from the team.
50	James Casey	IND	Versatility helps but it's not like he sees much of a workload.
