6 years agoChicago Bears running back Jordan Howard will go up against a Bills defense that is allowing the 10th most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. Howard is coming off of his best game of the season after totaling 81 yards and one touchdown against the Jets. Howard is averaging only 3.5 yards per carry this season but he has rushing touchdowns in each of his last two games heading into Week 9. The Bears could lean heavily on the run game this week and Howard should certainly benefit against a Bills team that has allowed seven rushing touchdowns this season. Of all the weeks to start Howard, Week 9 is a prime opportunity for the third-year running back.--Joey C - RotoBaller
