DeMarco Murray ($7700)
Murray has become one of the best RBs this year. He has scored at least 20 fantasy points each week and has had at least 27 touches the last 2 weeks. This week with the Browns in town, Murray is a really safe play and has huge upside because he could score 2-3 TDs. The Titans should be leading in this one and that means they will run the ball more, Murray will get his touches against this porous defense.

Lamar Miller ($6600)
Miller is another back that has been consistent all year in terms of usage and touches. Outside of last week he has at least 19 carries and 21-25 touches each week. The only problem for him is that he has not scored a TD yet. I expect that to change this week and that should provide a bigger fantasy day for Miller. The Colts have a poor defense and so Miller should have running lanes to score some big fantasy points.

Jonathan Stewart ($5100)
Stewart is a nice play this week because he has the Saints, who have the worst defense in the NFL. With Newton returning from injury, I expect the Panthers to play it safe and run the ball more. Stewart should get lots of carries this week. The Panthers are desperate for a win and will get back to basics and run the ball. Make sure you can keep an eye on Stewart's status before the game because he is questionable but all reports indicate he should play.
