From the article
Barkley can get it done this week on limited volume. Over the last five games, New York has allowed the seventh-highest explosive run rate, the ninth-most rushing yards over expectation per attempt, and the 15th-most yards after contact per attempt.
STACKED’s take
Barkley's elite efficiency on limited volume makes him a strong play despite injury concerns and DNP status.
Despite playing only 32.4% of snaps in Week 8 with a 44.8% rushing share and 16.3% route share (2.9% target share), Barkley finished with 14 touches, 54 total yards, and one touchdown (RB22 weekly scoring). Derek Brown notes his recent efficiency metrics are impressive given his health issues: 11.8% explosive run rate, 2.55 yards after contact per attempt, and 20% missed tackle rate over the last two weeks. Brown advises Barkley can produce on limited volume this week against New York, which allows the 7th-highest explosive run rate, 9th-most rushing yards over expectation per attempt, and 15th-most yards after contact per attempt over the last five games. Barkley opened the week with a DNP.
