Fantasy Football: Five Kansas City Chiefs To Play Vs Denver
By Ben Almquist
Spencer Ware – RB
Projection: 18 Carries for 80+ yards and 1 TD; 2 Catches for 30 yards
If the Kansas City Chiefs are going to win on Sunday, they need to run the ball. That should excite Fantasy Football owners of running back Spencer Ware. Over the course of the 2016 season, Ware has emerged as a legitimate every down back for the Chiefs. He is a solid runner and also a quality receiver out of the backfield.
The Broncos have struggled against the run this year. Denver also isn’t great against good receiving backs. The Chiefs have to take advantage of that match up and exploit it. There simply is no excuse not to. Spencer Ware should have a very solid game this week.
Spencer Ware should be an excellent option for your fantasy league. He is capable of grinding out a big day on the ground, or ripping off a big play. Unfortunately the Chiefs don’t use him as much as they should. As a DFS play, it’s kind of hard to say this week. Denver is still a good defense, and they will be keying on the run. However, that doesn’t make them good at stopping it.
