Eddie Lacy

Third straight disappointing week for Lacy as Packers run game struggles

Eddie Lacy musters just 36 yards on 11 carries. On the year, his yards per carry average sits at 3.1 yards. When asked what was plaguing the Packers run game, Lacy responded "We just have to figure out better ways to run the ball. I don't know if I have to be more patient or speed things up but one way or another I'm responsible for the run game." (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)

Fantasy Impact:

The Packers have faced three very tough run defenses to start the year, but as the Journal Sentinel points out 5 of Lacy's 11 runs went for zero or negative yards. An indication, perhaps, that, in addition to facing tough defenses, the run game has struggled to create opportunities. Lacy's matchup with the Chicago Bears in Week 4 might be the game he needs to get back on track.
