Should you start Nick Chubb in fantasy football this week vs. Steelers? Here's our take.

Should you start Nick Chubb in fantasy football this week vs. Steelers? Here's our take.

Since returning to the Cleveland Browns' lineup, Nick Chubb has been extremely ... meh.

He's not gone over 52 yards in each of his first four starts and has scored once. The receiving work hasn't been there, as expected, but still -- not great.

And now he's facing a short week, some rain in the forecast AND ... the fourth-best rushing defense in the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Though Chubb isn't injured, it's clear the back isn't back to what he was pre-injury, which doesn't help in fantasy football.

So: should you start Chubb this week?

My take is this: there are A LOT of byes this week. If you can find a replacement at your FLEX or RB2 spot, I'd go that route, but that's going to be hard. So if you need to start him, expect double-digit carries and something like 50 yards.

When was the last time the Steelers had a losing record? Should you start David Njoku in fantasy football this week vs. Steelers? Here's our take. The Giants starting Tommy DeVito over Drew Lock is a crummy thing to do (and also the right call)
