Ignore Todd Bowles' recent comments about '1A/1B' usage. Bucky Irving played 72 percent of snaps in the first half last week, and he'd taken 26 of 34 RB carries through the end of the third quarter before Gainwell incredibly got 17 carries in the final stanza.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Gainwell's role growth is garbage-time inflated; Irving is clear lead back.

Downgrade recommendation at Chicago despite only 13% start rate. Despite Todd Bowles' recent comments about '1A/1B' usage, Bucky Irving played 72 percent of snaps in first half last week and took 26 of 34 RB carries through end of third quarter before Gainwell got 17 carries in garbage time. Removing garbage-time usage from past two games shows Gainwell's role 'growth' was only because it had shrunk to nothing in preceding weeks; he remains distant Option B behind very busy Bucky Irving. Don't expect double-digit touches unless Bucs win easily.
