Jonathan Taylor

The most dominant fantasy player of the season is fresh off his bye this week and jumps right into a huge matchup. For anyone still wondering if the Colts are a real contender, this week's matchup against the Chiefs should give us all the answers we need. The Chiefs are coming off a huge divisional loss to the Broncos and need to win to keep the division still in reach. On the season, the Chiefs are allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points to opposing RBs and the fifth-fewest rushing yards. With five games of three touchdowns, we have seen prime LaDanian Thomlinson numbers from JT. This is a tough matchup, but Taylor is the fantasy MVP of the season.

Jonathan Taylor exploded for 244 yards and three scores on 32 carries, adding 42 yards on three receptions in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Falcons.

Fantasy Impact

Overtime helped Taylor pad his stats a bit in the Colts' eighth win, but this was an enormous effort nonetheless from the Colts' workhorse. Coming off his weakest output of the season, Taylor gained yards seemingly at will against the Falcons on Sunday, reasserting himself as arguably the NFL's MVP favorite at this juncture. With 1,400 yards of total offense and 17 touchdowns, there is simply no better fantasy weapon in the league than Taylor right now.
