A running back without a split backfield in fantasy football is the dream. So often in today's NFL, RB rooms are split 50/50, or substantial roles are given to the RB2. ****** yst Joel Smyth breaks down 10 notable backfields with two RBs competing for work — and where (or rather, who) the numbers point us to.
Stat Key:
MTF/att - Missed Tackles forced per attempt; how many carries bring extra yards created
YAC/att - Yards after contact per attempt; how many yards a RB gains after first contact
Success% - How often a play is deemed successful based on down & distance (for example: 4 yards on 1st & 10, 3 yards on 3rd & 3; an ****** ytical way to show "staying on schedule" — very notable when explaining a RB's value/role)
