NFL Projections Lead @EstablishTheRun

Joined September 2010
Jeanty heads into MNF leading NFL running backs in: - Targets (43) - Receptions (34) - Receiving Yards (312) - Receiving TDs (3) Meanwhile, his ranks among 26 RBs with 75+ carries: - 26th with 3.1 yds/carry - 25th with 10 missed tackles forced - 26th with five 10+ yd runs
The Ashton Jeanty efficiency has been horrendous in the rushing game, but his pass-game involvement is among the league's best at RB. RB targets per route run leaders through Week 6: 1. Ashton Jeanty - 29.8% (37 targets) 2. Jahmyr Gibbs - 29.6% (34) 3. Bijan Robinson - 29.0% (27) 4. Christian McCaffrey - 27.6% (35) 5. Kenneth Walker III - 27.3% (21) 6. Kyren Williams - 26.4% (39) 7. Chase Brown - 24.6% (28) 8. Kenneth Gainwell - 22.7% (17) 9. D'Andre Swift - 22.6% (21) 10. Aaron Jones Sr. - 22.2% (18) (min. 75 routes run, excludes Week 7 TNF between NE/CHI - data via SIS)

How many tight ends can the Rams legally play at one time?

Worth noting that Josh Jacobs was allowed to be in team meetings at the facility, lifting sessions, medical treatments, any other non-football activities. Also note MarShawn Lloyd (49th in EPA/rush among 54 qualifiers) and Kaleb Johnson (53rd) have been quite bad. Not all their fault of course, offensive line a mess as well. Talked about Jacobs long-term outlook and a lot more on yesterday's Rest of Season Top-150 show with @MarkDank, @JackMiller02, @notJDaigle. Free here or on pod feeds: youtu.be/yf2xrEns2pI?si=aGX_…

Jaydon Blue waived. Turns out the "Louis Vuitton cleats" week was maybe the biggest red flag in fantasy football history.
We have signed RB Elijah Mitchell to the Practice Squad and released C James Brockermeyer and RB Ian Wheeler from the unit. We have also waived RB Jaydon Blue. RB Carson Steele has been Waived/Injured.

Bijan has a 10.8% tgt share from Michael Penix on the season. It was 35.9% with Cooper Rush. Not really concerned long term, though. Bijan had an 18.8% target share from Penix in 2025, nearly identical to the 18.9% he saw from Kirk Cousins.
The Bears blitzed on 59% of the Falcons' drop backs in Week 6, their highest blitz rate of the season. Forced Bijan Robinson to block on 48% of his pass snaps (14 of 29), the highest pass block rate of Bijan's career. Bijan had just two catches for -8 receiving yards on the day. Seems like a pretty great game plan from Dennis Allen to neutralize one of the Falcons' biggest receiving weapons.

Michael Wilson entered Week 5 having run a route on 95% of Jacoby Brissett's drop backs this season. Wilson has run 81% and 80% of the routes in the two games without Marvin Harrison Jr., per SIS. Strange to see that number dip. Not really sure what's going on there, but Wilson has just 14 targets over his last two games after amassing 44 in his first 4 contests.

Deshaun Watson, fresh off a twice-torn achilles, currently leads all QBs with 12 designed rush attempts on the season. Giga-freak Josh Allen is in second with 9

Is now a good time to tell you that Shedeur Sanders had a higher yards per pass attempt last season than Bo Nix?

I don't like to be criticial but it's a genuine shame how poor of an NFL broadcasting duo Al Michaels & Kirk Herbstreit are at this point. Michaels can't see the field and lacks any meaningful insight or enthusiasm. Herbstreit is out of his element calling his secondary sport and doesn't have the NFL knowledge you want from an analyst. It's insane to me these two get 17 prime time games a season. It's a slap in the face to NFL fans.

The 49ers easily lead the entire NFL in 21 personnel (2 RBs, 1 TE) usage since the start of 2025. From the start of 2025 through Week 4 of 2026, the 49ers used 21 personnel on 38% of their offensive snaps. The other 31 NFL teams averaged 6% in that span. Kyle Juszczyk is the sole reason for the massive gap here with him being a massive piece in Kyle Shanahan's scheme. Juszczyk missed Week 5 against the Seahawks, his first missed game since 2019. How did the 49ers respond? They ran ZERO plays out of 21 personnel. Instead, they set season-highs in 11, 12, and 13 personnel usage. 43% is their highest 12 personnel usage since Week 8 of the 2022 season. There's not really a glaring fantasy takeaway here, I was mostly curious how SF would adjust their personnel groupings w/o Juszczyk and we got our answer, at least for one game. I've become increasingly interested in personnel usage since the Rams' 13 personnel trend took the league by storm and with more offenses trying to dictate what defensive structure the opposing team will trot out. Will be trying to post more interesting personnel usage takeaways as we get further into the season. (data via @SportsInfo_SIS)
