6 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner is coming off one of his best performances of the year in Week 8 as he scored twice and racked up 212 all-purpose yards. Conner will find running lanes tougher to navigate in Week 9 as he takes on a tough Baltimore Ravens run defense. Baltimore's run defense ranks fifth in DVOA this season and is allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. Conner also struggled against the Ravens in their previous meeting this season, picking up just 19 rushing yards on nine carries. This weekend he should be treated as more of an RB2 than the typical RB1 he has been for much of the season.--Matt T - RotoBaller
