Dobbins ceded work to Coleman; mid-range RB4 with poor matchup and efficiency.

Dobbins took a backseat to Coleman in the second half of Week 7, leading to season-low snaps (21%), attempts (27%), and routes (6%). Sean Payton could easily hand the early-down workload back over to Dobbins—most of Coleman's work came with a 7+ point lead. But even if Coleman is just the closer, that would hurt Dobbins, who can't afford to lose any work. He is averaging only 3.4 YPC. The Chiefs are the eighth-hardest RB matchup (-2.0 PPG), and the Broncos are 1.2-point underdogs with a below-average team total (20). The markets favored Dobbins early in the week, giving him the lead in attempts, but oddsmakers now project Coleman for a slightly larger workload. Dobbins' fantasy projections: Median 4.9, Ceiling 9.1, Floor 3.4. Dobbins is a mid-range RB4 against the Chiefs in Week 8.
