Jacksonville Jaguars

TJ Yeldon (Running Back): TJ Yeldon had a breakout game against the Buc's racking up 63 yards on 16 carries and finally found the end zone for a touchdown. The most concerning thing about Yeldon's performance was the groin injury he suffered during the game putting a gigantic question mark on his availability.

Allen Hurns/Allen Robinson (Wide Receivers): Hurns and Robinson are one of the most dynamic duos in fantasy football. Not only do they not affect each other's targets, they put up big numbers every week. Hurns was clearly the leader in yards this week as he racked up 116 and a touchdown on 5 receptions while Robinson caught 7 passes for 72 yards and 2 touchdowns. Both of these guys need to be started every week because they are the perfect WR3.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Doug Martin/Charles Sims (Running Backs): Martin had his biggest week, possibly ever. It was one of the most unlikely explosions of talent this season and yielded some big numbers. Martin finished the day with 24 carries for 123 yards and 2 rushing touchdowns. He also caught 3 targets for 35 yards and a receiving touchdown. Martin is the clear number 1 back in this offense. Sims held his own gaining 51 yards on 12 carries and catching 4 balls for 85 yards.

Mike Evans/Vincent Jackson (Wide Receiver): The Buccaneers passing game was pretty useless all afternoon as Martin controlled things for the offense. Evans still looks ineffective with Jameis Winston throwing him the ball; he only racked up 41 yards on 3 receptions. Evans was also only targeted 5 times. Jackson had a much worse day only reeling in 1 catch for 14 yards.
