5. Jeremy Hill

Jeremy Hill had a solid game in week 7 and I don’t expect him to slow down in week 8 against the Redskins poor run defense. Hill had 168 rushing yards and 1 touchdown against the Browns on 9 rushing attempts.

A few more solid running games by Hill and he could be the starter, instead of Giovani Bernard’s backup. If at any point in the next few weeks Bernard struggles, Hill will be ready to take over the starting job for good.

Hill should be able to rack up over a 100 rushing yards against the Redskins. Before the Baltimore Ravens abandoned the run altogether, Terence West was running all over the Redskins defense. In this match up you have a team that can’t stop the run going against a hot hand.
