Bo Scarbrough Week 15 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Tue, Dec 10th 2019, 8:28am EST

We saw what a negative gamescript looked like for Scarbrough last week, and it wasn't as bad as we thought. He still finished with 22 opportunities while the Ty Johnson/J.D. McKissic duo combined for just eight opportunities. Predictably, Scarbrough has caught just 1-of-4 passes this season for five yards, as he offers nothing there, though the Lions did try last week. The Bucs are not the matchup to target with running backs in general, let alone ones who are of the two-down variety. Despite a brutal schedule, the Bucs have allowed 3.18 yards per carry on the season, which ranks second-best to only the Jets. Even through the air, we've watched running backs average a league-low 4.45 yards per target. All of this amounts to the Bucs allowing just 90.8 total yards per game to opposing running backs, which is by far the lowest mark in the league. No other team has allowed less than 107.4 total yards per game to the position. Unless Scarbrough finds the end zone, he's going to be a bust in this matchup. Consider him a low-end RB3/high-end RB4 with very minimal upside.
