LeSean McCoy, Eagles – Bryce Brown, Eagles –
Yes, actually, it can get worse in Philly. McCoy left the lopside loss to the Redskins with a concussion and his availability for Week 12 is iffy. Brown would step into those carries, so the opportunity is there, but it would be a stretch to expect him to live up to McCoy's productivity.
Willis McGahee, Broncos – Ronnie Hillman, Broncos –
McGahee went down with a knee injury during the Broncos' Week 11 win, opening the door for Hillman and Lance Ball to get carries. Hillman saw more, and was more productive so if McGahee misses significant time--and Hillman can pass protect well enough to keep Peyton Manning happy--he'll be the bigger fantasy winner.
Marcel Reece, Raiders –
100 rushing yards, 90 receiving yards... hey, Darren McFadden, no rush on your coming back.
LaRod Stephens-Howling, Cardinals –
A buck 27 and a touch, with the Arizona passing game offering up absolutely no threat at all... hey, Beanie Wells, you look comfy on the IR; no need to rush.
Bilal Powell, Jets –
Powell gets healthy just in time to carve out a share of the Jets' backfield touches as they hit a very fantasy-friendly home stretch. Shonn Greene hasn't exactly banked a ton of fantasy goodwill, or respect, or trust, which bodes well for Powell to do a little something with that stretch as well.
