I spent last night and this morning sorting through running backs; these sort of things tend to take longer than ever now, as I weigh the pros and cons of the all important LeRon McClain vs. Kevin Faulk debate. That leaves most of Week 11 left to be examined here.

Ryan Grant's boffo effort against Chicago was the fantasy story of the day, along with the Addai/Slaton duel in Lucas Oil Stadium. Only one back in ten previous games cracked 80 rushing yards against the Bears - Adrian Peterson. Grant went for 145 and a touchdown while plowing through monster holes. Brandon Jackson went for 50 yards on ten carries, another great sign of the line's turnaround.

I've spent the last month doubting the Grant resurgence, but he's convinced me now. He still doesn't catch passes or excel in short-yardage, but who cares if he averages 100 yards, as he now has for the last six games. The toughest matchup Grant has left is Chicago in Week 16. It took a while, but Grant owners now have the RB2 they thought they were drafting.
